A LIST OF BUTTERFLIES COLLECTED 
258. — Teracolus aurigineus, Butl. Taita, Taveta, Kikuyu. 
Generally common in dry places. 
254. — Teracolus vesta, Reiche. This is also a common species 
of wide distribution. 
255. — Teracolus halimede, Klug. Taita, Taveta. Common. 
256. — Teracolus protomedia , Klug. Coast hills, Taita. I 
have not found this fine species common, but it is of 
more frequent occurrence in North Giryama than 
elsewhere. 
257. — Teracolus celimene, Lucas. Taita, Taveta, Ukambani. 
I have not met with this commonly. 
258. — Teracolus eris, Klug. This is another widely distributed 
species. It is not uncommon. Its flight is generally 
rapid. 
259. — Teracolus phlegyas, Butl. Coast district, Taita, Taveta. 
This is a common species. Together with other species 
of this genus and also the common species of Belenois, 
it resorts to the same places for considerable periods to 
rest for the night. These places are generally exposed 
to the rays of the western sun. 
260. — Teracolus bacchus, Butl. Taveta, Ukambani. This 
seems uncommon, but it is doubtful whether it is really 
distinct from the preceding. 
261. — Teracolus regina , Trim. Coast district, Taita, Taveta. 
Rather irregular in its comparative abundance. I have 
found it commoner at Rabai than elsewhere. 
262. — Teracolus hetcera, Gerst. Coast hills, Taita, Taveta, 
South Kikuyu, Ukambani. Fairly common generally. 
268. — Teracolus puniceus, Butl. Coast hills, Taita. Doubt- 
fully distinct from the preceding. The yellow females, 
which are apt to occur sporadically in most species 
of the genus, seem to be of more frequent occurrence 
in these two species. 
264. — Teracolus elgonensis, Sharpe. North and South Kikuyu. 
Sometimes found in some numbers. Its habits are very 
different from those of the genus generally, as it frequents 
forest and flies rather high. All my captures differ 
from the type in almost totally wanting the broad 
black of the apex.
