Machaon, Podalirius, Apollo, Brassicee, Raps, Daplidice, Sinapis, 
Cardamines, Edusa, Hyale, and Rhamni. 
-«* Trrrapopa, which have the fore legs evidently shortened and un- 
fitted for walking either in both sexes or in the female only; the 
chrysalis is suspended by the tail: includes Paphia, Aglaia, Adippe, 
Lathonia, Euphrosyne, Selene, Artemis, Athalia, Cinxia, C-album, 
Urtice, Polychloros, Antiopa, Io, Atalanta, Cardui, Sibylla, Ivis, 
Galathea, Epiphron, Medea, Hgeria, Megera, Semele, Janira, 
Tithonus, Hyperanthus, Davus, and Pamphilus. 
b. Those which have the third joint of the labial palpi naked; the claws 
of the tarsi are minute; the larve are onisciform, and the pupe girt 
as well as attached by the tail. 
+ Those with the fore legs of the males much shorter than the middle 
and hind legs: includes Lucina only. 
++ Those with the fore legs alike in both sexes: includes Rubi, Quercus, 
W-album, Pruni, Betule, Hippothoe, Phlas, Beetica, Aigon, Medon, 
Icarus, Adonis, Corydon, Acis, Argiolus, and Arion. 
TI. Those in which the hind legs have two pairs of spines disposed as in 
the other Lepidoptera; the hind wings are generally horizontal 
when at rest, and the antenne are frequently terminated in a 
decided hook. The larve, of which few are known, enclose them- 
selves in folded leaves of their food-plant: within this retreat they 
spin a very slight silken cocoon and turn to smooth pupx, which, 
like those of moths, are without angular prominences. 
a. Which have the antenne distinctly clavate: includes Malvz, Tages, 
Paniscus, Sylvanus, Comma, Actzon, and Linea. 
b. Which have the antenne filiform: includes the genera Urania, 
Cydimon, Nyctalemon, and Sematura. 
Here we have the earliest application to purposes of systematic 
arrangement two great truths,—jirs/, that the genera Cydimon 
and Urania are butterflies; and secondly, that, united with the 
Hesperides, they constitute a primary division of those insects 
equivalent to those characterised by the erect position of the wings 
in rest.
