this name, as I am not convinced of their identity with P. creona, 
Cram. 
Mylothris sabina, Feld—The insect which I consider to be 
the true sabina, was sent us as a new species. It is as large as 
the largest specimens of MM. rhodope, which it considerably re- 
sembles, but is more washed with brown on the borders above, and 
is much yellower at the base beneath. I fancy that this insect 
is frequently represented in collections by some of the smaller 
species, as I have sometimes received specimens of M. orbona 
and phaola, ticketed sabina. 
Idmais eris, Klug.—Two species have always been confounded 
under this name ; and the female of the true J. evis of Klug, whose 
figure of the male is unmistakable, appears to be the species 
recently described as Teracolus abyssinicus, Butl. The Dublin 
Museum of Science and Art possesses both sexes of both species. 
I. wis, Klug.—Expands two inches or a little more. Male 
fore-wings creamy white to beyond and helow the cell, forming 
five teeth outwardly, the middle one the longest, and the two 
above shorter than those below ; on the middle of the lower side 
a sight angular indentation. Costa dusted with black towards 
the base ; the whole of the hind margin and inner margin broadly 
black, the apical half of the hind margin strongly shot with 
violet, and marked with a series of six dull orange spots, the 
uppermost long, the others round, the sixth often yellow. Hind 
margin with cream-coloured fringes, broader at the hinder angle. 
Hind wings cream-colour, the costa black, and produced in a lobe 
below the tip into the light ground colour of the wing; the ex- 
tremities of the nervures blackish. Underside white, fore-wings 
with three large black spots towards the hinder angle; hind- 
wings yellower than above, the costa bordered with rich 
orange. Female like the male, but with a black discoidal spot 
on each wing, small and scarcely visible above on the hind wing ; 
the black portion of the fore-wings is duller, the apical half has 
no violet reflection, and is marked with a series of five yellowish 
white spots. Hind-wings yellowish white, the borders with large 
black spots ; costa black; and from the projection runs an inner 
row of rather indistinct and partly connected brown spots. 
Wings beneath nearly as in the male, but the orange border to 
the costa less extended. Our specimens are from Abyssinia;
