380 Mr Perkins, Notes on some Hawaiian Insects. [Dec. 6, 1S97. 



insects would be referred to as good instances of what are called 

 'warning' colours, but from the study of the Hawaiian species 

 such a significance becomes very doubtful. It seems much more 

 probable that they are due to the general condition of the country 

 they inhabit — it may be climate or some such cause.
