  might 
  be 
  forms 
  of 
  ethalion, 
  Boisd., 
  and 
  the 
  second 
  true 
  

   etheocles 
  (Proc. 
  Ent. 
  Soc, 
  1918,

  and

   This 
  suggestion 
  was 
  no 
  longer 
  tenable, 
  for 
  Dr. 
  Karl 
  Jordan, 
  

   after 
  examining 
  the 
  genitalia, 
  had 
  come 
  to 
  the 
  following 
  

   conclusions 
  : 
  — 
  

  

  " 
  No 
  ethalion 
  are 
  included 
  in 
  Mr. 
  DoUman's 
  series. 
  What 
  

   we 
  call 
  etheocles 
  probably 
  consists 
  of 
  two 
  species, 
  both 
  having 
  

   ? 
  ? 
  of 
  the 
  phaeus-tj])e 
  and 
  of 
  the 
  etheocles 
  -tj])e. 
  Dewitz 
  

   figures 
  a 
  (J 
  close 
  to 
  Dollman's 
  with 
  phaeus-like 
  ? 
  ?, 
  but 
  the 
  

   ? 
  of 
  the 
  former 
  is 
  white-banded. 
  Our 
  $ 
  coryndoni 
  (Nov. 
  

   Zool. 
  vi, 
  pi. 
  8, 
  f. 
  7) 
  is 
  almost 
  the 
  same 
  as 
  one 
  specimen 
  of 
  

   Dollman's 
  phaeus-seTies, 
  sub-marginal 
  spots 
  rounded, 
  not 
  

   arcuate." 
  

  

  Lord 
  Rothschild 
  had 
  also 
  pointed 
  out 
  to 
  Prof. 
  Poulton 
  that 
  

   one 
  of 
  the 
  series 
  of 
  phaeus-liVe 
  $ 
  ? 
  in 
  the 
  Dollman 
  collection 
  

   in 
  the 
  British 
  Museum 
  really 
  belonged 
  to 
  the 
  series 
  of 
  manica- 
  

   like, 
  white-barred 
  $ 
  ?, 
  although 
  without 
  the 
  white 
  bar. 
  Its 
  

   under 
  surface 
  showed 
  the 
  pattern 
  which 
  Mr, 
  Dollman 
  had 
  

   recognised 
  as 
  characteristic 
  of 
  his 
  white-banded 
  females, 
  and 
  

   had 
  shown 
  to 
  Prof. 
  Poulton 
  after 
  the 
  meeting 
  of 
  December 
  

   1918. 
  Its 
  inclusion 
  in 
  the 
  fhaeus-XWe 
  series 
  was 
  clearly 
  

   accidental. 
  

  

  Mr. 
  Dollman's 
  most 
  interesting 
  discovery 
  suggested 
  that 
  the 
  

   etheocles 
  group 
  required 
  re-examination 
  throughout 
  in 
  order 
  to 
  

   determine 
  the 
  relationship 
  of 
  the 
  two 
  N.W. 
  Rhodesian 
  species 
  

   respectively 
  to 
  all 
  the 
  other 
  forms. 
  How 
  numerous 
  and 
  dis- 
  

   tinct 
  these 
  are 
  was 
  indicated 
  by 
  a 
  series 
  of 
  coloured 
  slides 
  

   illustrating 
  nearly 
  all 
  the 
  mimetic 
  females 
  of 
  the 
  group, 
  to- 
  

   gether 
  with 
  their 
  models 
  among 
  the 
  larger 
  species 
  of 
  Charaxes. 
  

   Attention 
  was 
  specially 
  directed 
  to 
  the 
  least 
  perfect 
  mimic 
  viola, 
  

   Butl., 
  and 
  its 
  model 
  epijasius, 
  Reiche. 
  Although 
  the 
  likeness 
  

   in 
  the 
  cabinet 
  is 
  by 
  no 
  means 
  close, 
  it 
  is 
  probable 
  that 
  the 
  two 
  

   would 
  resemble 
  each 
  other 
  upon 
  the 
  wing. 
  Both 
  were 
  open- 
  

   country 
  butterflies, 
  whereas 
  most 
  of 
  the 
  other 
  forms 
  of 
  etheocles 
  

   and 
  their 
  models 
  were 
  forest-lovers. 
  Dr. 
  S. 
  A. 
  Neave 
  had 
  

   kindly 
  written 
  :

  " 
  As 
  far 
  as 
  I 
  recollect 
  — 
  and 
  such 
  of 
  my 
  material 
  as 
  is 
  in 
  

   the 
  B.M. 
  seems 
  to 
  confirm 
  it 
  — 
  I 
  only 
  took 
  the 
  $ 
  viola 
  form 
  in 
  

   the 
  open 
  country 
  in 
  Northern 
  Uganda. 
  It 
  occurs 
  on 
  both
