4. Danats (Salatura) laratensis, Butler. 



Rober as Danaus plexippus, Linnaeus. Originally described from 

 Larat in the Timor Laut Islands. Single specimens are seen every- 

 where on Great and Little Ke Islands all the year round, mostly on 

 open spots covered with " alang-alang " grass (Imperata arundinacea, 

 Cyrill.). 



In de Niceville's collection is an old male specimen of D. interna, 

 Moore, described from Java, Lombok and Borneo. As the species is un- 

 known to Kiihn, and is represented by D. laratensis in the Ke Isles, it is 

 probable that the specimen did not come from the Ke Isles. 



5. Danais (Salatura) affinis, Fabricius. 



Key (Rober), Ke Dulan (Butler). Very common on all the islands. 



6. Danais (Asthipa) citrina, Felder. 



Rober as Danaus gloriola, Butler. Common on Great and Little 

 Ke Islands amongst bamboo clumps. Mr. Kirby has given some notes 

 on this species in Ann. and Mag. of Nat. Hist., sixth series, vol. iv, 

 p. 157 (1889), but they are difficult to follow without seeing the speci- 

 mens about which he wrote. 



7. Tellervo zotlus, Fabricius. 



Rober as Hamadryas nais, Guerin. Butler as H. nweipicta, Butler, 

 Ann. and Mag. of Nat. Hist., fifth series, vol. xiii, p. 191, n. 6 (1884), 

 from Ke Dulan. This "new species" hardly seems to differ from 

 T. zoilus. Common everywhere in the bush in all the islands. The male 

 secondary sexual characters in the genus Tellervo ( = Hamadryas, Bois- 

 duval, nee Hamadryas, Hiibner) do not appear to have been described. 

 They are found in the forewing, and consist of a greater sinuosity of 

 the inner margin than in the female ; with a large clump on the upper 

 surface of modified dull (instead of intensely black like the rest of the 

 ground-colour) black scales from the inner margin commencing at the 

 base of the wing but not reaching the outer margin, and extending for- 

 wards as far as the first median interspace, these modified scales being 

 entirely absent in the female. 



8. Eupl(EA (Vadebra) eurypon, Hewitson. 



Moore. Rober. Ke Dulan (Butler). Common on all the islands in 

 October and November, but single specimens are found all the year round. 

 Mr. F. Moore in his monograph of the subfamily (Proc. Zool. Soc. 

 Lond., 1883, p. 284, n. 2) places this species in his genus Chirosa, in which
