Euplcea vitellal (Cramer), Montrouzier, Ann. Sc. Phys. Nat. 

 Lyon, p. 403 (1856). 



Woodlark Island (Montrouzier). 



Appears to be allied to E. melina, and certainly is not the Papilio 

 vitellia of Cramer (which is a Dyctis), as evidenced by the descrip- 

 tion : — " Wings black, paler at the extremity ; underside of upper 

 wings marked upon the costa by three points and a bifid streak, all 

 white, and at the sides by a border of points ; underside of lower 

 wings spotted with white : upon the wings of the male a band of 

 dull black." This last sentence proves it to be a true Euplcea.
