In the collection of Osbert Salvin, Esq., from Cayenne. 



In his Catalogue of Erycinidce (Journ. Linn. Soc. 1868) Mr. Bates 

 has ranked the L. Ion of Westwood as a mere variety of P. Hebrus ; 

 the differences between the two forms, however, seem to be constant, 

 and quite sufficient to distinguish them by.

The L. Lucianus of Hiibner, as shown by Mr. Bates, is quite 

 distinct from the Fabrician species, and represents two distinct in- 

 sects (L. melanogyra, Bates, and L. Nepioides, Butler) ; the latter 

 species differs in both sexes from Westwood's L. pseudolonginus, of 

 which Mr. Bates has made it a synonym. 



2. Lemonias Emylius. 



$ . Papilio (P. E.) Emylius, Cramer, " alis integerrimis, nigris, 

 albo punctatis ; anticis fascia flava, omnibus subtus variegatis : 

 habitat Surinami." Pap. Exot. i. pi. 66. figs. G, H (1779).

P. crispus of Cramer (the tf of ? Emylius} appeared in the second 

 volume of the Papiliones ' (ii. pi. 118. f. D, E), and will therefore 

 sink into a synonym. 



3. Lemonias Petronius. 



Papilio (H. R.) Petronius, Fabricius, " alis integerrimis, caeruleis, 

 nigro strigosis ; subtus fusco cinereis, nigro punctatis : habitat in 

 Indiis." Donovan, Ins. Ind. pi. 43. fig. 2 (1800).

This may possibly be a species of Lasaia near to L. Meris ; the 

 under surface (as well as the upper surface), however, is figured by
