RHOPALOCERA. 361 
MelitcRa athalia. On its correct identification, see W. F. Kirby, Pr. E. Soc. 
1871, p. xxi. 
M. chalcbdon, Doubl., figured with transformations by Edwards, Butt. N. 
Amer. pt. 7, Mel. pi. 1. 
M. merope noticed by Frey, Mitth. schw. ent. Ges. iii. p. 408. 
Grapta comma, Harr., and G. dryas, Edw., figured with transformations 
by Edwards, 1. c. viii. Gr. pis. 2 & 3. G. interrogationis, Edwards (/. c. 
pt. 9, Gr. pis. 4 & 5) figures varr. umhrosa and fabricii in all stages. These 
are dimorphic forms; and he thinks that G. comma and djyas will also prove 
to be dimorphic forms of one species. Lintner maintains his former views 
on the identification of G. interrogationis in opposition to Edwards : Tr. Am. 
Ent. Soc. iii. pp. 197-204.

Diadema octocula, Butl. The probable locality for this species is Totoya, 
Fiji Islands: it is hardly distinct from D.formosa, H.-S., which may be 
the S- [The latter name would then have priority.] Butler, Ann. N. 
II. (4) vii. p. 447. 
Limenitis sibylla and Camilla. On their synonymy, see W. F. Kirby, Pr.
