Var. Delias Lorquinti. 
Var. Delias Lorquinti, Felder, Reise der Nov., Lep. p. 159, pl. xxiv. 
figs. 9, 10 (1865). 
Delias catamelas, Staudinger, Iris, iv. p. 77 (1891). 
Menado. Four examples. B. M. 
Also four specimens in Hewitson’s collection. 
Three of the examples of this variety or local race are 
from the Godman and Salvin collection ; it chiefly differs from 
typical D. Rosenbergit in the black suffusion towards base of 
secondaries on the under surface, and was figured by Vollen- 
hoven (pl. iii. fig. 1) as the female of that species; and he 
mentions both as coming from Macassar. The following 
may be a further development of the same species, the colour 
of the secondaries being variable. 
13. Delias Mitisi. 
Delias Mitisi, Stavdinger, Ivis, vii. p. 352 (1894). 
Sula Islands. 
Differs in having the basal half of secondaries below black, 
without yellow basal patch; the discal area white, only 
tinted with yellow at inner margin; submarginal scarlet 
spots larger. 
14. Delias melusina. 
Delias melusina, Staudinger, Ivis, iv. p. 76 (1891), i. pl. ili. fig. 5. 
Celebes. 
Seems nearly allied to D. zebuda, but with very melanic 
upper surface and yellow subapical spots on under surface of 
primaries. 
15. Delias zebuda.

tion. Inthe Hewitson collection there are four more specimens
