562 On Butterflies from the Uganda Protectorate, 
LX XIII.—On a Collection of Butterflies from the Uganda 
Protectorate, forwarded by C. Steuart Betton, Esq., in 1900. 
By A. G. Butier, Ph.D. 
Aout the end of last year two tins of Lepidoptera reached 
us from Mr. Betton. All the butterflies were collected at 
Eb Urru in April and May. 
It is interesting to note that the whole of the variation of 
Limnas chrysippus is represented in the present series (the 
forms L. chrysippus, alcippoides, alcippus, dorippus, and 
Klugii being all present). Among rare species are both sexes 
of Chrysophanus Abbotiz, the male of the southern Urano- 
thauma nubifer, specimens of Catochrysops negus (which was 
new to the Museum collection), Mylothris rubricosta, Phris- 
sura phoebe, the Arabian Synchloe glauconome, and a fine 
example of Papilio nobilis. A very remarkable Spindasis, 
quite new to me, was secured, but unhappily it is too much 
worn to enable me to describe it with any certainty.
