Note. — This species is also allied to E. eunice, Godart, and is pro- 

 bably the insect intended in the 'Genera' and in the 'Catalogue of 

 the East India Company.' Our present specimens of E. eunice are 

 named from insects that had been determined by Dr. Boisduval, and 

 agree with the original description of the species.

Hiibner (Samml. exot. Schmett. Bd. ii. pi. 9) figures two species 

 under the name of Salpinx eleusina ; he considers them to be the
