272 L. de Niceville — List of the Butterflies of the Ke Isles. [No. 2, 



shagreened, above grayish-green, with a shining steel-blue line above 

 the spiracles, then a spiracular white stripe, which becomes yellow 

 from the second to the fourth segments, the infra-spiracular region is 

 light green, beneath it is bluish-green. Each segment bears six 

 folds or creases, and all the segments are minutely dotted with black. 

 The pupa is pale green, with the head produced into a long pointed 

 process, the thorax humped in the dorsal line, there is a lateral yellow 

 line running from the extreme apex to the posterior end of the 

 pupa. 



88. Terias hecabe, Linnaeus. 



Rober as Eurema hecabe from Key. Butler as T. photophila, Butler, 

 from Ke Dulan. He describes the male only, and says it has no sub- 

 apical brown patch on the underside of the fore wing, this patch, however, 

 is present in females from Ke. In his latest revision of the genus 

 (Ann. and Mag. of Nat. Hist., seventh series, vol. i, p. 75, n. 51 (1898), 

 he places T. photophila as a synonym of T. sulphurata, Butler, which 

 " Ranges from Northern Australia northwards to Timor Laut, Aru, and 

 New Guinea, and thence eastwards to New Ireland, appearing just to 

 touch the Solomons ; more to the south it ranges eastwards to the 

 Loyalty, New Hebrides, and Fiji Islands." Common on all the islands. 



89. Terias sp. 



Only one specimen from Little Ke. It is allied, from Kuhn's 

 description, to T, Iseta, Boisduval. 



90. Terias Candida, Cramer. 



Not as common as T. hecabe, Linnaeus, on Little and Great Ke 

 Islands. Dr. Butler gives Amboyna and Ceram only for this species. 

 Our male specimens agree with Cramer's figure, and have the abdominal 

 margin of the hind wing on the upperside broadly black. 



91. *Appias lyncida, Cramer. 



Rober as Tachyris lyncida from Key. We have seen this species 

 only from Java, Bali and Lombok. 



92. Appias celestina, Boisduval. 



Rare on Little Ke, somewhat more plentifully found on Great Ke 

 Island. Our females are Form I, bluish-white, not rich yellow on the 

 upperside.
