1876.] MR. A. G. BUTLER ON THE GENUS TERACOLUS. 153 



Trimen, so far as I understand him, appears to have identified it 

 with c? T. omphaloides and $ T. gavisa.

We hare a small pair of this species presented by Mr. Buxton, the 

 temale of winch has the orange subapical band rather narrower than 

 usual.

1 am not certam about the female which I have provisionally re- 

 ferred to this species. 



91. Teracolus LOANDicus.

 (1871); Lep. Exot. pi. xxxiv. fig. 10 (1872). 



$ . Very like T. procne $ ; but the oblique black band hounding 

 the curved orange band of primaries extremely narrow, the base of 

 the same wmgs broadly grey ; the internal streak ill-defined, no part 

 of It visible on the underside; the undersurface of all the wings 

 considerably paler. Expanse of wings 1 inch 7 lines.

6 $ , var.^Altogether less heavily marked ; the female scarcely 

 grey at the base, with no trace of the internal streak, and with the 

 orange band broader; angulated streak of secondaries barely indicated, 

 underside paler. 



S ?, Quanza, August 1871 (/. J. Monteiro). B.M. 



It is possible that this may be distinct ; but I am unwilling to 

 name it, from the close resemblance which it bears to typical T. loan- 

 dicus. 



92. Teracolus eborea. 



S . Papileo eborea (part), Cramer, Pap. Exot. iv. pi. 552. figs. C, 

 D(1782). ^ ® 



? Africa. 



Cramer figures the male of T. danae from Coromandel as the fe- 

 male of this species ; and (notwithstanding his remarks upon the 

 coloration of the apical patch) I believe he has improved the scarlet 

 of the apical fascia in his male to make it more nearly agree with its 

 supposed female. The species is clearly nearly related to the follow- 

 ing, and never came from any part of Asia.
