general more pale, and those of the lower wings are broader than 
on the upper side.

Ohs. On an inspection of the original Pieris Nysa of Fab., in 
the Banksian cabinet, I find it to be the same with the P. Endom 
of Donovan, the only dilference being that the under wings are 
less cinereous on the upper side, and the upper wings have more 
white at the extremity of the yellow spots at the base of their under 
sides. These minute differences appear to be sexual. At all events 
this is undoubtedly the P. Endora of Donovan, in his Insects of 
New Holland. M. Godart, however, most erroneously quotes 
another work of Donovan, namely, The Insects of India, and 
gives an erroneous description, apparently from confounding some 
Indian insect with the insect described by Donovan. Godart has 
also erroneously altered the Fabrician description of P. Nysa, and 
thus added to the multitude of proofs which liis laborious work 
affords, that the continental entomologists have no means of un- 
dertaking a complete description of species, without visiting the 
extensive collections of London.

Ohs. As Godart here again cites Donovan’s work on the Insects 
of India, instead of his Insects of New Holland, I am inclined to 
think that he never saw those works.
