CASSIA BUTTERFLY. 173 
appendages. This caterpillar feeds on the different 
twigs of the cassia tree, and changes to the chrysalis 
in the month of May. It is an inhabitant of Suri- 
nam. 
The chrysalis is two inches long, beautifully 
clouded with brown, pink, and cinnamon. 
The Cassia Butterfly emerges from the chrysalis 
in June, and may be regarded as one of the prettiest 
of its species, from the richness and harmony of its 
colours.
