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 

 coloiu* of all the spots.

 scentibus albis, purpureo cinctis : corpus nigrum, albo piinctatum. 



Exp. alar. imc. 3, lin. 3. 



One specimen. South- Sea Islands. 



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

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

 of Hewitson. 



Genus Danais, Latreille. 



1. Danais Archipptis. 



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

 Three examples {^). South-Sea Islands. 



I cannot account for the existence of this species in the 

 collection. It generally comes from tlic United States and 

 St. Domingo.
