31. T. protomedia, Klug, Symb. Pliys. , pi. viii, figs. 1 3, 14 (1829). 

 This fine species is not at all uncommon inland : it is nearly 

 double the expanse of any other species in the genus I have 

 ever seen, 



32. T. miles, Butler, Ann. and Mag. of Nat. History, ser. 5, 

 vol. xii, p. 105 (1883). I only took two specimens of this insect 

 on 7th July, 1883, and 11th July, 1883, respectively. Prom the table 

 given by Mr. Butler, P. Z. S., 1884, p. 757, the Aden form appears 

 to be doubtfully distinct from T. eu^ompe. 



33. T. ^p^^07^e, Felder, Reise der Novara, Lep., vol. ii, p. 186, 

 n. 180. I took one male and one female of this species at Haithalhim 

 on 4th and 5th April, 1884, respectively. 



34. T. nouna, Lucas, Expl. Alg., Zool., vol. iii, p. 350, n. 14, 

 pi. i, fig. 2 (1849). 



35. T. saxeus, Swinhoe, P. Z. S., 1884, p. 441, pi. xl, figs. 1,2. 

 I have little doubt that these two forms are varieties of one 

 species : both forms are common inland. 



36. T. yerhurii, Swinhoe, P. Z. S., 1884, p. 441, pi. xxxix, fig. 12. 

 Not uncommon inland. On one occasion I found this species and 

 T. protomedia in fair numbers at the so-called forest at Shaik 

 Othman close to Aden. 



37. T, siviiihoei, Butler, P. Z. S., 1884, p. 491, n. 33. I took a 

 single specimen of this butterfly at Haithalhim on 5th April, 1884. 

 It is somewhat like the preceding species, but is a larger insect with 

 a yellow instead of a creamy- white ground-colour. 



Before leaving the Teracoli, I would submit for the consideration 

 of those more familiar with the subject than myself, whether in the 

 Idmais group it be not the case that the males are fairly constant, 

 whereas the females show considerable variation : e.g., at Aden we 

 have T. phisadia with four or more forms of female (certain), T.pleione 

 two forms (certain), T. acaste two ioTm.s (almost a certainty), T. Calais 

 two or three forms (probably). Should this be found to hold good in 

 India, I can imagine the havoc it may cause among such species as 

 T. puellaris, T. ochreipennis, T. intermissus, T. rosus, ^c, all of which 

 I have personally looked on with suspicion as females of T. vestaKs. 



38. Belenois lordaca, Walker, Entom., vol. v, p. 48. Very common. 

 I reared some caterpillars on Capparis gakata.
