The type of P. PyrrJia is in the Banksian Collection in the British 

 Museum ; it chiefly differs from the normal P. Thalia in being ful- 

 vous and ferruginous instead of white, and in having no anal spots 

 on the upper surface of the anterior wings.

The supposed variety mentioned by Fabricius, and standing with 

 his type in the Banksian Collection in the British Museum, and 

 again with a specimen of P. Gea, named by Mr. Jones in the Linnean 

 Collection, is Pseudacrcea Euryta <$ of Linnaeus, both sexes of which 

 mimic this Planema ; the P. Timandra of Mr. Doubleday's list is the 

 female of P. Gea.
