some Butterflies taken in Jamaica. 47 
In my opinion it is specifically distinct from S. cassius, 
Cram., but if not distinct it is a very well-marked local 
race. The earliest description of the form that I can find 
is that by Lefebre in Ramon de la Sagra’s “ Histor. Cuba,” 
VII, p. 611, and it should, I think, bear his name. It 
appears in W. Holland’s “Butterfly Book” as Lycena 
theonus, Lucas. 
Catochrysops hanno, Stoll (2? monops, Zeller). 11 speci- 
mens. Abundant at Constant Spring, also met with at 
Mackfield, Walderston and Port Antonio. Its small size 
and insignificant appearance probably often cause it to be 
passed over. It frequents small Composites by the road- 
side, especially Distreptus spicatus, Cass. 
Callipsyche thius, Hiibn. A single very fine male near 
the Jam Factory, at the foot of the hills, Constant Spring. 
On the wing I took it for a Skipper. This and the 
specimens from Jamaica in the National Collection lack 
the white mark at the tip of the fore-wing of the male met 
with in Venezuelan examples. 
Calycopis pan, Drury. Three specimens, taken in the 
garden at Walderston by my Portuguese servant. The 
lobes of the hind-wings are everted as in the Indian 
Aphnexus and the South African Argiolaus. 
PIERIN&. 
Callidryas eubule, Linn. (f. senne, Linn.). 17 f, 14 9. 
Constant Spring (common), Gordon Town (abundant), 
Castleton, Temple Hall (abundant), Mandeville, Mackfield 
(common), Montego Bay (common), Walderston, Christiana, 
Spanish Town (abundant), Port Antonio (abundant). 
If not actually the most abundant, at all events the 
most conspicuous butterfly on the island. Brilliant in 
colour, bold in flight, and numerous in individuals, it was 
always much in evidence. 
The “dry” form prevailed, more especially as the season 
advanced. 
Kricogonia lyside, Godt. 6 2, 29. Ramble, Montego 
Bay, Spanish Town, Port Antonio (not uncommon along 
the coast to the eastward). 
Glutophrissa ?drusilla, Cram. Common at Constant 
Spring, also taken at Montego Bay. This species usually 
flies high, frequenting flowering trees and so out of reach, 
- My specimens are small, especially the females, which 
are quite devoid of black markings. Somewhat similar
