ENTOMOLOGY. 



Mr. Smeethman, and consequently Papilio Amalia among the num- 

 ber. Mr. Smeethman, had spent many years in Africa and the 

 West Indies, so that it is not exactly certain when he found those 

 Papiliones, but on the authority of those manuscripts it may be 

 added that Mr. Drury received them all in the year 1774, 1775 and 

 1776. (MSS. FoUo^ Lepidoptera), 



The figure of Papilio Amalia, and Papilio Cipris are represented 

 in the annexed plate upon a sprig of an elegant plant of the Linnaean 

 genus Geranium, a variety of the 



PELARGONIUM GRANDIFLORUM, OR GREAT- 

 FLOWERED CRANE'S BILL, 



an inhabitant of Southern Africa. Found by Mr. Fr. Masson at 

 the Cape of Good Hope, and introduced into the Royal Gardens at 

 Kew in the year 1794. A beautiful species, in blossom during most 

 part of the summer.
