“ Fore wings fuscous, spotted with yellow and white ; hind wings ferruginous 
with six blind ocelli; under side variegated, with eight ocelli. Papilio Lycaon, 
of Jones’s drawings, plate 17, fig. 1. Habitat unknown. Collection of Mr. 
Drury. Body of medium length, fuscous, the sides of the abdomen fulvous. 
Fore wings above fuscous, spotted with yellow and white, and with a blind 
ocellus, which is black with a reddish iris; under side yellow at base, spotted 
with fuscous, the apex fuscous, with three white spots and two black ocelli with 
yellow irides, the anterior one pupilled with white, the other blind ; the mar¬ 
ginal stripe yellow. Hind wings obscure at base, with a stripe and five yel¬ 
low spots, rufous at apex, with six black ocelli. Under side variegated with 
yellow and fuscous, with eight black ocelli which have yellow irides and blue 
pupils.” , 
This description cannot apply to Celtis, for in that species the upper side of 
the hind wing is not ferruginous, nor is the apex rufous, and there is no yellow 
marginal stripe on either wing; the fore wing is also described as fuscous, 
which implies that it is wholly fuscous, whereas in Celtis the basal third is of 
quite another color. On the under side there is no yellow marginal stripe on 
the fore wing, nor is the base yellow, and the hind wing is not variegated with 
yellow and fuscous ; nor are the sides of the abdomen fulvous. All the spots 
spoken of are characteristic of the entire group, and, color excepted, which is 
in every particular inapplicable to Celtis, there is not one specific character 
given. For the extra-discal rows of spots and the ocelli on the fore wings, and 
the discal spots and ocelli of the hind wings, are found in Celtis, Alicia, and 
Leilia, and with the single exception of the ocellus on the fore wings, are found 
in Clyton also, a species belonging to another group ; and most of these mark¬ 
ings, especially the ocelli of the hind wings and the apical spots of primaries 
are found in Idyja, Hub., and its allies, which form still another group. 
Fabricius is supposed to have made up his descriptions from the colored 
figures by Jones, but he refers to the insect as being in Drury’s collection, and 
he must have seen it there, for that collection was one of the best known in 
Europe. These figures are still preserved at Oxford, and have been inspected 
by Mr. A. G. Butler. He is of the opinion that they were meant to represent 
Alicia, and says, in a letter to me, “ It is certainly not Celtis, which I know 
well.” Mr. Riley has received from Professor Westwood uncolored tracings,
