PLATE CCXLIV. 77 



inftead of the above quoted fpecific charafler, Linnaeus only fays, 

 •' Alis dentatis fufcis fubconcoloribus albo fafciatis maculatifque, 

 angulo ani rubro." p. 781. 187. and this is clearly our infea.— 

 From this the whole of the Fabiician account is obvioufly a com- 

 plicated error of defcn'ption and fynonyms, and without attempting 

 to inveftigate it further, we mail fpeak of both fpecies as they 

 appear to us. 



We confider the Common Englifh Admirable, as the true P. 

 Camilla ; and that Sibilla, and not Camilla is the Auftrian fpecies, 

 as we have received it from that country ; it is much darker in the 

 upper furface, and has a row oijhining blue [pots all round the wings : 

 the bafe of the poflerior wings, beneath filvery and without /pots, as 

 Fabricius describes his Camilla. Our infecl on the contrary has 

 no row of blue f pots on the upper furface, but a red fpot at the inner 

 angle of the poflerior wings; the bafe of the lower wings are alfo 

 filvery beneath, but has black fpots upon it. They differ in many 

 other refpefts : thefe alone determine them to be two fpecies, and 

 ours to be the Camilla of Linnaeus. 



We have infpefted the drawings of Mr. Jones, from which Fa- 

 bricius defcribes moft of his Papiliones, and are confirmed in our 

 opinion.
