Excepting that tlie marginal green and red markings on the 

 secondaries are rather better developed, tlie male corresponds 

 with, that of the typical form. 



Seasonal form of var. Dewitzi. — The male has lost the red 

 marginal streaks on the secondaries, and the female has the band 

 white partly bordered with silvery blue, nearly as in that sex of 

 the typical form.

 Staudinger gives a poor figure of the male under the name of 

 C. epJiyra, a species from which there is not the least difficulty 

 in distinguishing it. 



I can make nothing more of C. Baumanni than a dwarfed 

 female answering to our specimen from Zulu {I, supra).
