Danais AFFINIS. 



Papilio affinis, Fabr. Syst. Ent. p. 511. 



Danais affinis, Blanch. Voy. Pole Sud, Zool. iv. p. 389 ; Atl. Lep. 

 t. 2. f. 7. 



D'Entrecasteaux Islands and mainland of New Guinea. 



A widely-ranging species, found in the islands neighbouring New 

 Guinea and also North Australia, whence it was originally described. 



EuPLCEA CALLITHOE. 



Euplcea callithoe, Boisd. Voy. Astr. Ent. p. 93 ; Kirsch, Mitth. 

 k. z. Mus. z. Dresden, i. p. 115. 



D'Entrecasteaux Islands. 



A single specimen agrees with one of Dr. Meyer's examples 

 obtained in North-western New Guinea. 



Euplcea iphianassa ? 



Euplcea iphianassa, Butl. P. Z.S. 1866, p. 287. 



D'Entrecasteaux Islands and mainland of New Guinea. 



These specimens only agree approximately with Mr. Butler's type, 

 which came from New Hebrides. The chief difference consists in 

 the absence in the male of the submarginal row of spofs on the 

 underside of the secondaries. 



Euplcea nox ? 



Euploea nox, Butl. P. Z. S. 1866, p. 278.

 was obtained in the Am Islands. 



Euplcea eurianassa. 



Euplcea eurianassa, Hew. Ex. Butt., Eupl. i. f. 2. 

 D'Entrecasteaux Islands. 



Described from a specimen taken on board ship, off the coast of 

 New Guinea.

 P. Z.S. 1877, p. 142. 



D'Entrecasteaux Islands. 



A single female specimen probably belongs to this species, though 

 it differs somewhat from our specimen from Duke-of-York Island as 

 regards the arrangement of the spots on the secondary wings. The 

 specimen is in poor condition. 



Hamadryas zoilus. 



Papilio soilus, Fab. Syst. Ent. p. 480.
