THE THEORY OF EVOLUTION. 



Mr. W. C. Hewitson refers to a paper by Mr. Roland 

 Trimen,|| wherein, speaking of the wonderful metamorphoses of a 

 species of Papilio, the latter says, " Entomologists, no less than 

 naturalists generally, appeared content with a child-like wonder 

 at this and kindred facts, and let them pass as things inscrutable 

 until Mr. Darwin gave us a rational explanation of these pheno- 

 mena," Mr. Hewitson remarks, "I must say, and I hope that 



t Represented by sketch only in Brit. Mus. Coll. (placed among Satur- 

 niidce) ; but it is certainly a Geometer, and presents similarities to the Enno- 

 midcz and Boarmida. Is allied to genus Chorodna from Hindostan ; resembles 

 Semiothisa, Feld.
