given by Cramer. Mr. Trimen does not include t in his 

 ' South- African Butterflies,' being evidently satisfied that it 

 never came from the Old World.

Java. 



Seems to me remarkably close to some examples of G. di- 

 lectus in both sexes ; but Mr. De Niceville points out that the 

 series of discal spots on underside of primaries runs into the 

 submarginal series, whereas in C. dilectus the two series are 

 separate.

2 . Cyaniris hersilia, Leech, Butt. China, p. 319, pi. xxxi. fig. 16 

 (1893). 



China. 



An unusually white female, reminding one somewhat of 

 that sex of Lampides conferenda=pura.
