Hevvitson {Joe. cit.) placed Papilio eurisus, Cr. { = helius, 

 Fabr.), as the type of this genus, and Mr. Moore has lately 

 recharacterized it, and has agreed in making Papilio kelius, 

 Fabr., the type (J. A. S. B. liii. p. 34j. So far as I know- 

 there are only two other species which can be placed with it, 

 viz. lolaus boUssus, Hew., from the Congo, and 1. carina, 

 Hew. 



lolaus helius. 



Papilio helius, Fabr. Spec. Ins. ii. p. 112. n. 489 (1781).

Hab. Sierra Leone, Winnebar (C. R. Williams) : Mus. G. 

 & S. Lagos {Sir A. Moloney). Cameroon Mountains : 

 Mus. Druce. 



Sir Alfred Moloney's collections have contained a large 

 number of this species, but I have not noted it plentiful from 

 other localities.

 Lep., Supp. p. 28, pi. iv. a. figs. 48, 49 (1878). 



Hab. Congo (Rogers) : Hew. Coll. 



The type specimens in the British Museum and one female 

 in Messrs. Godman and Salvin's collection are all I have 

 seen. It is probably the southern representative of /. helius.

Hab. W. Africa : Hew. Coll. 



A distinct species, known to me only from the type speci- 

 mens in the British Museum (Hew. Coll.). The precise 

 locality is unfortunately not noted.
