4 LLOYD'S NATURAL HISTORY. 



Butterflies as follows (" Schmetterlinge von Europa," Band 

 ify:-

Euploea. Zerynthia. 



Vanessa. Doritis. 



Limenitis. Pontia.

It will be noted that, while Linnaeus in 1758 placed the 

 Butterflies with imperfect front legs in the middle of his ar- 

 rangement, Ochsenheimer and many other German authors put 

 them at the commencement of their systems. This arrange- 

 ment had actually been employed by Linnaeus himself in 

 some of his earlier works. 



The arrangement of genera adopted by Latreille and Godart 

 in 1819-1823 in the ninth volume of the "Encyclopedic 

 Methodique," is as follows : 



DlURNA. 



Fapilionides. Biblis. 



Papilio. Nymphalis. 



Parnassius Morpho.
