DIRECTIONS TO THE SUBSCRIBERS, OR THE BINDERS, 



IN COLLATING THE ist VOL. OF THIS WORK. 



First separate all plates (including Neuration Plate " B ") and all letter-press which treats of the Genera 

 Twgonoptera and Pompeoptera from the Plates and Text belonging to the Genera Drurya, Schoenbergia, Ornithoptera, and 

 JEtheoptera. The latter belong to Vol. I., the former to Vol. II., which at this time is in process of publication. This 

 having been done, eliminate all the cancelled pages, as well as those unnumbered, and substitute the numbered pages 

 that have been forwarded to the subscribers since they were first published. [If any copies exist for which duplicate num- 

 bered pages have not been sent, by applying to the author, 24, Jasper Road, Upper Norwood, S.E. London, he will gladly 

 send these desiderata.] 



The Text and Plates of this Vol. can then be arranged as follows : — 



Title Page; Dedication and Preface, or pages (3) to (14). These figures are placed at the foot of the pages in 

 brackets..
