(Translated by R. Meldola, P. E. Soc. 1879, pp. xx.-xxviii.) 
The author discusses the mimicry existing between Ituna ilione and 
Thyridia megisto. The Danaidce may be separated into two groups by 
the presence or absence of a basal cell, and by the position of the scent- 
brushes of the male. In Danais, Ituna, and Lycorea, a basal cell is pre- 
sent, the marginal cell between the submedian and the first branch of the 
median nervure is double, and the scent-tufts are placed at the extremity 
of the abdomen ; but in Ithomia and all its allies, including Thyridia, the 
basal cell is absent, and the abdominal processes are replaced by an 
odoriferous tuft of hair on the upper side of the hind-wing on the sub- 
costal nervure. In Thyridia the odour is very powerful, and it is the only 
species known in which this character has been transferred, though to a 
lesser extent, to the female. The odour of Ituna resembles that of snuff.
