OF ARTS AND SCIENCES. 99 



References to Leach in Brewster's Encyclopaedia are to the paging in 

 the American edition ; all the references to Hewitson's Exotic Butter- 

 flies are at second-hand. 



In conclusion, I would return my thanks to many entomologists who 

 have answered special inquiries concerning works and insects to which 

 I had no ready access ; and especially to Mr. W. F. Kirby, of Dublin, 

 and the late Mr. G. R. Crotch, of Cambridge, with whom I have con- 

 stantly consulted, and whose aid has been of the greatest importance. 



1. ABLETS. 



1816. Ilubn., Verz. 97: Nicippe, Cebrene (Arethusa), Brigitta. 

 1870. Butl., Cist. Ent. i. 35 : designated Nicippe as type. 

 1872. Scudd., Syst. Rev. 39: does the same. 



Nevertheless Nicippe cannot be taken as the type, for that species 

 must be reserved for Xanthidia (1829). The other species referred to 

 it belonging to the genus Eureraa (1816), Cebrene may be taken as 

 the type. 



2. ABANTIS. 



1855. Hopff. Verb. Akad. Wissensch. Berl. 643: tettensis. Sole 

 species, and therefore type. 



3. ABISARA. 



1860. Feld., Wien. Ent. Monatschr. iv. 397 : Echerius (Kausambi), 

 Savitri, Damajanti. 



1867. Bates, Journ. Linn. Soc. Lond., Zool. ix. 413: extends the 

 genus, but includes in it only the former two of the orig- 

 inal species. 

 Echerius may be considered the type. 



4. ABROTA. 



1858. Moore, Cat. Lep. E. Ind. Co. i. 176: Mirus (Ganga). Sole 

 species, and therefore type. 



5. ACAPTERA. 



1820. Billb., Enum. Ins. 76 : crisia. Sole species and designated 

 type.
