the Japanese Islands (Hondo, Shikoku.Kyüshü, Yezo), the Loochoo Islands 

 (Ryükyü), the Bonin Islands (Ogasawara Jima) and Formosa (Taiwan). 



" Neue Rhopaloceren Japans," published in the " Annotationes 

 Zoologicae Japonenses," Volume VI, part i, p.p. 7-15, 1906, with one 

 plate of new Japanese and Formosan species and also giving a list of thirty- 

 five species of Rhopalocera from Formosa, some of which were unrecorded 

 in Professor Miyake's catalogue of May, 1905. The catalogues of 

 Lepidoptera published by Professors Matsumura and Miyake incorporate 

 species of Rhopalocera recorded from Formosa by Wallace and Moore, 

 Butler, Rothschild and other authors and may therefore be regarded as 

 the latest and most reliable basis for compiling a catalogue of Formosan 

 Rhopalocera. 



Professor Miyake in his Catalogue of May, 1905, enumerates one 

 hundred and thirty-six species of Rhopalocera as occurring in Formosa 

 and Professor Matsumura, later on in his paper " Neue Rhopaloceren 

 Japans," adds to these the twelve following species which were not 

 recorded by Professor Miyake. Professor Miyake, in his paper " A List 

 of a Collection of Lepidoptera from Formosa," records the five following 

 additional species, making a total of one hundred and fifty-three species 

 recorded up to 1907.
