Sierra Leone. ( rf Collected 1858, by Mr. James Foxcroft ; $ 

 type ?, from Mr. Milne's Collection) B.M. 



In his ' Mantissa Insectorum ' Fabricius quotes Cramer's P. Epo- 

 nina as his P. Serena ; in his original description, however, he says 

 that the margin of the hind wings is spotted with fulvous ; and in 

 the British- Museum collection we have specimens from Sierra Leone 

 and Congo answering to this description. The latter are the true 

 males of Drury's P. Cyntheus, and were inadvertently entered in 

 Mr. Doubleday's list as the A. Cynthia of Godart ; whilst the P. 

 Liberia of Cramer (Pap. Exot. pi. 268. figs. C, D) represented the 

 A. Serena of Godart, the species being possibly determined from 

 specimens wrongly labelled " P. Serena, Fabr." in the Linnean Col- 

 lection. The P. Bonasia of Fabricius (a variety of P. Serena) is 

 identical with Cramer's P. Eponina, as evidenced by the type in the 

 Banksian Collection. We have received P. Serena, P. Cyntheus, and 

 P. Bonasia in one collection from Sierra Leone. 



2. Telchinia Csecilia. 



Papilio (II.) Caecilia, Fabricius, " alis oblongis, medio albis, nigro 

 punctatis ; posticis margine nigro, subtus albo punctate : habitat in 

 Africa sequinoctiali." 



Var. Papilio (H.) Hypatia, Drury, " alis oblongis, integerrimis, 

 fulvis nigro punctatis, margine nigro, immaculato : habitat in 

 Africa." III. iii. pi. 13. fig. 1 (1782). 



Fabricius, Sp. Ins. p. 34. n. 142 (1781) ; Mant. Ins. p. 16. 

 n. 163 (1787) ; Ent. Syst. iii. pp. 163, 177, n. 504, 551 

 (1793). 



P. Ccecilia, Africa. (From Mr. Milne's CoUection) B.M. 



P. Hypatia, Sierra Leone. (Collected 1858, by Mr. James Fox- 

 croft) B.M. 



The type of P. Ccecilia is quoted as in the Banksian Collection in 

 the British Museum ; there are, however, only two specimens of 

 Drury's insect, labelled " P. Hypatia" in that collection ; an example 

 agreeing with the Fabrician description, obtained from Mr. Milne, 

 seems more likely to be the type of the species, and agrees exactly 

 with the unpublished figure in Jones's ' Icones.'
