APPENDIX 



A CLASSIFICATION AND INDEX OF THE EXAMPLES OF 

 MIMICRY QUOTED IN THE TEXT 



THE various sub-families, 1 &c., of Butterflies are, allowing for omissions, 

 arranged in the order followed in most museums and private collections. 

 In other cases no attempt has been made to adopt sub-groups of equiva- 

 lent systematic value, and the succession is alphabetical. 



Groups from which very few examples were selected (e. g. Hemiptera) 

 are not classified separately, but appear as models or mimics in the 

 classification of those which have been more freely quoted in the text. 

 The mimetic species alone, without models, are given under the mimetic 

 sections of the classification. Under the sections which are made up of 

 models the mimetic species are given with their models, except in the few 

 cases (e. g. ants) where the species or genera of these latter have not been 

 quoted. Models (with their mimics) are placed before mimics in groups 

 which primarily act as models, mimics before models in those which are 

 primarily mimetic.

 series of butterflies. All other numbers in this series imply jsub-family rank.
