1898.] Butterflies from Bum in the Moluccas. 309 



2. *Danais (Radena) sobrina, Boisduval. 



Bourou (Boisduval). Recorded only from the Am Isles and New 

 Guinea by Moore. I have it from Ternate and New Guinea. 



3. Danais (Radena) meganira, Godart, 



In my collection from Ceram and Amboina. 



4. *Danais (Radena) jdventa, Cramer. 

 Bourou (Boisduval). A doubtful record I think. 



5. Danais (Nasuma) ismarb, Cramer. 

 In my collection from Amboina. 



6. Danais (Ravadeba) lutescens, Butler. 



Described from Ceram and Bouru by Dr. Butler. Recorded also 

 £rom Batchian by Moore. 



7. *Tellervo assar[CA, Cramer. 



Bourou (Boisduval as Hamadryas assaricus, sic !). 



8. *Eupl(EA (Vadebra) melina, Godart. 



Bourou (Boisduval). Recorded from Ceram and the Aru Isles by 

 Moore. 



9. Euplcea (Gamatoba) melanchOlica, Butler*. 



Originally described from Bouru and Amboina. My specimens 

 agree very well with Mynheer P. C. T. Snellen's figure of this species 

 in Tijd. voor Ent., vol. xxxii, p. 381, pi. viii, fig. 2, male (1889), as 

 E. melancholica, var. sethiops, Butler, described by Butler as a distinct 

 species from Waigiou* Snellen's specimens were from Roon Island. 

 My Bum specimens are fairly constant, none of them have any spots 

 on the upperside, this feature being characteristic of the var. sethiops. 

 Unfortunately Dr. Butler did not figure either species. Mr. Moore 

 keeps them distinct. 



10. *Euphea (Gamatoba) Alcathoe, Godart. 



Bourou {Boisduval). Mynheer P. C. T. Snellen in Tijd. voor Ent., 

 Vol. xxxv, p. 1, n. 1 (1892), has pointed out that the E. alcathoe of 

 Moore is not the same species as the E. alcathoe of Godart, the true 

 E. alcathoe probably being an older name for E. melancholica^ Butler* 

 "Danais" alcathoe was originally described from Amboina. 



11. *Eopl(ea (Gamatoba) sPicdli^era, Moor©. 

 Bouru (Moore),
