!Prom the description, this species would seem to be nearly 

 allied to C. candiope, and I should have considered it merely a 

 form of that species, only Mr. Feisthamel has omitted to mention 

 the green veins on the under surface, which are especially charac- 

 teristic of the C. candiope group. If a very distinct species, one 

 would have supposed that it must have been received and recog- 

 nized since 1850 ; nevertheless, from a drawing of the type 

 shown to me by Mr. Aurivillius after I had completed this paper, 

 I find that C. Boueti is nearly allied to C. Lasti,
