The book in which this insect was described was, I am told, de- 

 stroyed in the great fire at Moscow ; and I am therefore unable to 

 determine the species. 



The following species probably do not belong to this genus : — 



127. Papilio florimel. 



Papilio florimel, Fabricius, Ent. Syst. iii. l.p. 215. n. 673 (1793); 

 Donovan's Drawings in Bibl. Hope. Oxford. 



Satyrus florimel, Godart, Enc. Meth. ix. pp. 469 & 512. n. 106 

 (1819). 



Neonympha florimel, "Westw. & Hewits. Gen. Diurn. Lep. p. 375. 

 n. 19 (1851). 



Hab. 1 



From the description given by Fabricius I should suppose this 

 insect to be an Erebia ; I have, however, had no opportunity of 

 seeing Donovan's drawings, and may therefore be mistaken. I know 

 of no species of Euptychia anything like it. 



128. Papilio peribjja. 



Papilio peribcea, Fabricius, Ent. Syst. iii. 1. p. 234. n. 730 (1793). 



Neonympha peribcea.W estw. & Hewits. Gen. Diurn. Lep. p. 376. 

 n. 24 (1851). 



Satyrus peribcea, Godart, Enc. Meth. ix. pp. 463 & 486. n. 29 

 (1819). 



Hab. Surinam (Fabricius). 



If it were not for the locality, I should have imagined this insect, 

 from the description, to be a Mycalesis. I do not know of any species 

 of Euptychia with a large ocellus at the inner margin of the front 

 wings on the upperside. 



129. Papilio halyma. 



Papilio holy ma, Fabricius, Ent. Syst. iii. p. 243. n. 758 (1793).
