Papilio duponchelu (Luc.). Lucas describes the J of this species. Bull/ 
Soc. Ent. Fr. 1868, p. v. 
Trouvelot notices a peculiar habit of the larva of Pajnlio turnus (Proc. 
Bost, Soc. Nat. Hist. xii. p. 92). 
Fettig states that, having reared two broods of Papilio podalirius in the 
same year, those of the second generation, which changed in September and 
October, produced reddish-yellow chrysalids, whilst the June pupae were 
brownish yellow, and sometimes greenish. The second brood passed the winter 
in the pupa-state. lie also records some observations tending to confirm the 
opinion that the colour of the pupa of P. machaon is partly dependent on 
that of the body to which it is attached. Bull. Soc. Ent. Fr. 1868, p. Ixiii. 
Papilio xcniades (Ilew.) is described and figured by Ilewitson (Exot. Butt. 
67, July 1, 1868, Pap. pi. 9. fig. 26). 
Papilio. Salvin and Godman (Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. 4th ser. ii.) describe 
the following new species : — P. fetiochionis^ 1. c. p. 160, Mexico ; P. eicterpinus 
ibid., Ecuador; P. xantlioplcura, 1. c. p. 161, Eastern Peru; and P. soi'atensisj 
1. c. p. 162, Bolivia.

IIewitson (Trans. Ent. Soc. Lond. 1868, pp. 97-100) remarks upon the 
genera and species of this group, admitted by Wallace in his treatise on the 
^ Pieridie of the Indian and Australian regions ’ (see ^ Record,’ 1867, p. 341). 
Of the genera he objects to the adoption of Wallengren’s genus Thyca and 
the new genus Tachyris as being insulRciently characterized. Of the species he 
maintains that Pieris narscs=perimale (Don.), Donovan’s figure of the latter 
being quite recognizable ; P. naina (Moore) (Luc.) ; P. nesha (Luc.) 
= 5 agostina (Hew.) ; P. ajaka (Moore) = (Men^tr.) ; P.pigea (Boisd.) 
is probably an African species; P. kalosa {Mooxo) =callidice] Thyca latiassa 
(Boisd.) is a P/erfs, probably = wwiis (Luc.), which is a var. of rachel (Boisd.); 
Cramer’s P. zelmira, E. & F., are not 5 $ of nerissa, but have a S similar to 
orhona (Boisd.) ; P. neomho (Boisd.) is not a var. of paidina (Oram.), its cf 
resembles ega (Boisd.) ; P. alhina is probably not the of paulina ; P. melania 
(Fab.) = melania (Don.) ; Tachyris jacqnmotii (Luc.), probably = isandra 
(Boisd.); T. ncphele (Hew.) is probably a variety of lyncida and hippo \ 
Prioncris seta (Moore) = $ thesfylis (Doubl.); P. seta (Wall.) cf & $ 2 is a 
distinct species, named watsonii by Ilewitson ; P. hcrcnice (Luc.) = c/cmaw7/je 
(Doubl.). 
IIewitson refers (Proc. Ent. Soc. Lond. 1868, p. xviii) to Pieris jacquinotii 
(Luc.), which he says is a highly coloured variety of P. alhina. 
C. G. Barrett publishes some observations on the mode of occurrence of 
Colias hyale in Britain. Ent. M. Mag. v. p. 176. 
Dale remarks that he has found a larva of Colias cdusa feeding on Melilot
