The colour of the upper and large? pair of the 
future Butterflys wings, as they very plainly 
appear through the tranfparent fein of the 
Chryfalis. 
Deg ee CFE Np.€ 
The caft fkin of the Chryfais, 
four segments. 
@ The firft part of the divided fkin. This 
part contained the Butterfly’s two fore-pair 
of legs, and its probofcis. 
66 The fkin of the back, and abdomen, 
divided into two parts, that ferved to enclofe 
the thorax, head, and four wings. 
¢ The fkin tore off near the origin of the ab- 
domen, whofe rings it heretofore contained. 
d Some of the internal membranaceous cafes, 
or integuments of the horns, legs, and pro- 
bofcis. Thefe membranes are always bro- 
ken on the Chryfalis’s firft appearing in the 
Butterfly form. 
ee Some pulmonary tubes, divefted of their 
integuments, and appearing in the fkin itfelf.

The Butterfly, lately fript of its fhins. 
@ Part of the body, which the wings do not 
as yet cover.

ceccc Four legs of the infect. 
dd The antennae, or horns, growing over the 
the eyes, which are furrounded with hair. 
- Between the horns are two fhagey forks, 
which hide the probofcis. 
e The two fhanks of the probofcis, hid between 
the faid forks.

A Butterfly, which in little more than a quarter 
of an hour after tts firft appearing as fuch, bas 
acquired its full growth and perfection, fo as 
already to know ‘what it ought to feek after, 
and what avoid; what may be ufeful toit, and 
what prejudicial. In this refpect then, the 
Butterfly infinitely furpaffes all other creatures, 
even man bimfelf,; and with a moft audible 
voice, asit were, publifbes to all mankind, the 
praifes of their common Creator. ;
