7. 7. 29. = 1351. Paid. " Eastward of my house." The 



yellow spot at the apical end of the tore wing cell is 

 divided into two in this specimen. 

 Westwood's list and label record one other specimen of 

 this date. 

 29. 7. 29. = 1352. Paid. 



A Westwood's l'abel reads " Capt. 19. 5. 29; 1. 7. 29, 

 2 ind 8 . ; 7. 7.29, 2 ind 8 . ; 8. 7. 29; 29. 7. 29; 1. 8. 29; 

 15. 11. 29 ; 1. 2. 30." Westwood's list agrees. 

 Bz.+ 1. 8. 29. = 1353. Para. 

 15. 11. 29. =1354. Para. S. Jose. " Caminho de Cha- 



mdnte." 

 1. 2. 30. = 1355. " At Pari. In the forest S.S.E. of 

 S- JozeV' The yellow snot at the apical end of the fore 

 wing cell is here, as in 1351, divided into two, and the 

 costal member of the pair is only vestigial. 

 Besides the addition above alluded to, Westwood's list and 

 label give 8. 7. 29, Para. It is possible that he here acci- 

 dentally includes the date on 1442, a specimen of Eueides 

 tales Pythagoras, omitted from his list of this latter species 

 (see 1442). Opposite to the list of dates he wrote " IJeli- 

 conia Vesta. Al. ant. mac. flava obliqua <J & ? " — and he 

 made a diagram showing that he referred to the oblique 

 yellow spot between the first and second median nervules. 

 In the same place he thus describes the variation in size of 

 the spot in the cell of the fore wing: — " variat. magn. mac*, 

 flavce in cellula al. ant."

 [ilio]." " In a walk along the Aqueduct. Mile and a 

 half above the Convent of Santa Theresa, at Rio de 

 Janeiro — in Brazil."* Less detailed data have hitherto 

 been given from the Brazilian note-book ; it should be 

 noted, however, that the latter reads: "129-151. 

 Above the Theresa Convent; and on the woody hilly
