pupilled, but there is a smaller one below it, nearer the angle, 
with two pupils, and a third small one, with the pupil and ring 
both indistinct, near the tip of the hind wings. Under side reti- 
culated with brown and gray, the eyes nearly as above, that at 
the tip of the fore-wings more or less surrounded by a brown 
ring, and that at the tip of the hind wings more distinct than 
above. Sierra Leone. (Collected by Foxcroft.) 
Heliconius erato, Linn.—Three of our specimens from New 
Granada have the hind wings rayed and spotted on the margins 
with yellowish green instead of with blue or red. 
H. eleuchia, telesiphe, cydno, &e—In all these species the 
bands may be indifferently white or yellow; and some Entomo- 
logists regard the representative forms as distinct species. 
Argynnis cytheris, Dru——We have a pair of this species, 
Hiibner’s figure of A. siga, and Reed’s of A. anna represent the ¢ 
exactly ; Drury’s figure is too dark. The species which Reed (and 
probably Gay), describe as A. cytheris, Drury, is distinct, and 
must retain the name of montana, under which Reed originally 
figured it. 
Nymphalis carye, Hiibn.—One of our specimens is labelled 
“China,” but this is probably an error. 
Kallima rumia, Westw.—One female has a buff band on the 
fore-wings instead of a white one, but does not differ in any other 
important character. 
Cymothoe fumana, Westw.—Notwithstanding Mr. Hewitson’s 
remarks on his Harma hypatha (Kx. Butl. U1., Hara, t. 2), 
I have no doubt that the latter insect is the true female of jum«ana. 
Anea andria, Scudd.—lI cannot agree with Strecker in placing 
this species as a synonym of A. troglodyta, Fabr. It is much 
smaller, less heavily marked, and the wings are scarcely dentated. 
But I believe that O. ops, Druce, is probably identical with 
andria. 
Lymnas melander, Cram.—One of our specimens is a variety 
without the orange edging to the hind wings. 
Plebeius parsimon, Cram.—Felder’s Lycena negus is identical 
with Cramer’s species. 
P. hellotia, Mén.—P. praxiteles, Feld, is the male of this species. 
P. gaika, Trim.—From Ceylon, a new locality. 
Pieris ernestius, Lap.—I have entered these specimens under
