Closely allied to E. Jessica, Butler (Lepid. Exot. iii. p. 20, 

 pi. 8. fig. 3), but differing in having only two small spots on 

 the upper surface of the front wings and in the creamy-white 

 colour of all the spots.

Exp. alar. unc. 3, lin. 3. 



One specimen. South-Sea Islands. 



Allied to E. assiniilata of Felder, which I only know from 

 the figure, but which looks very like the male of E. Eurypon 

 of Hewitson. 



Genus Danais, Latreille. 

 1. Danais Archippus. 

 Papilio Archippus, Fabricius, Ent. Syst. iii. p. 49. n. 151 (1793). 

 Three examples {S)' South-Sea Islands. 



I cannot account for the existence of this species in the 

 collection. It generally comes from the United States and 

 St. Domingo.
