The above insect was purchased at the sale of Mr. Swainson's insects 

 during the last summer, and is now named in honour of that zoologist ; his 

 publications on Lepidoptera are indispensable to the exotic entomologist, and 

 of extreme value. 



Lamia Swainsoni appears to form a subgenus allied to Euoplia, described in 

 the first part of the Insects of Assam at page 37.
