This species has such a familiar aspect, that I had hoped, with 

 the assistance of Dr. Holland's most valuable monograph, to be 

 able to find a published name for it ; but, not having done so, I 

 have taken tlie liberty of dedicating it to that most energetic and 

 painstaking Lepidopterist.

I wish I could agree with Dr. Holland in thinking this identical 

 with Westwood's species ; but, as the species most nearly allied to 

 the latter and this {A. p'lradisea) invariably has the sides of the 

 abdomen ochreous, aud the number of segments said by Westwood 

 to be luteous does not correspond with the number of segments 

 which are white in A. trimeni, I consider that, until specimens 

 of the latter are received from the same locality as that of 

 Westwood's type, I still have the stronger case.
