PREFACE.

Ir was my intention, as stated in the Introductory Remarks, to comprise in the first part of the Catalogue of the Lepidopterous Insects contained in the Museum of the East-India Company, the three first Tribes of this Order of Insects ; but in arranging this work for publication, it became evident that our materials and the labour of preparing them for publication exceeded the original estimate of their extent: the full illustration of the species, the investigation and enumeration of the multifarious synonyms by which they are indicated by authors, together with the descriptions of a considerable number of new species, rendered a modification of our first plan advisable. I have therefore determined to limit the first part to the Paprzionrs and SpuHinans, reserving the Bompyoces to the second part.

In submitting this Catalogue to the Entomological public, it is my first duty to acknowledge the very valuable and accommodating assistance which has been afforded to myself and my assistant by the officers of the Zoological Department of the British Museum, in our frequent researches, for the purpose of accurately comparing the subjects in the Company’s with those contained in the British Museum. By this means, our species have been verified with a degree of accuracy otherwise unattainable; the synonyms carefully examined, and the character and distinctness of the new species fixed with all possible accuracy.

My best thanks are also due to A. Grote, Esq., of the Company’s

A2

1V PREFACE.

Bengal civil service, who has placed at my disposal a very extensive series of drawings of the transformations of Lepidoptera, from con- tinental India ; the first portion, containing the Diurna, has already reached our Museum, and Plate XII. of illustrations consists almost entirely of Mr. Grote’s contributions.

IT have also to acknowledge thankfully the contribution of original drawings of transformations of Eastern Lepidoptera : first, by Edgar Leopold Layard, Esq., of drawings from Ceylon: secondly, by Lady Isabella Rose Gilbert, of drawings from continental India: thirdly, by Captain Mortimer Slater, of drawings from northern India: Sourthly, the Entomological Society has also afforded access to the drawings made by Mrs. Hamilton.

The general plan according to which this work will be conducted

is detailed in the Introductory Remarks. The indications afforded by the metamorphoses form the basis, and the subjects will be

arranged, as far as possible, according to their affinities or most natural relations. This has been attempted in the first Tribe, the metamorphoses of which are illustrated on the first seven and the twelfth Plate, to which I refer the reader: but in a local collection of limited extent such an attempt must necessarily be imperfect.

The Spurness, forming the second Tribe, are limited exclusively to those Insects in which the chrysalis is naked, and deposited on the surface or under the earth, the character of which is illustrated by Plates VIII., IX., X., and XI. These form, in the twelfth edition of the “Systema Nature,” the first, second, and part of the third section of the genus Sphinx, as defined by Linneus. The remainder of this genus, namely, part of the third and fourth sections, consisting chiefly of the genera Ayeria and Zygena, belong with more propriety to the Bompycns, to which they are allied both in their transformations and in the perfect insect, the chrysalis being enveloped in a silky fabric or cocoon, in the manner of the Bombyces.

Thus restricted, the Spnina@Es are divided into five Stirpes,

PREFACE. Vv

which, with the exception of the first Stirps, the metamorphosis of which is as* yet unknown, are named from the form of the larve; viz., the second Stirps Elongate, the third Stirps Acro- cephale, the fourth Stirps Amblocephale, and the fifth Stirps Ophthalmice. These are described in detail in pages 258-9. The special character of these divisions, exhibited in the metamorphosis, is strikingly confirmed by the perfect Insect, which, in each of these Stirpes, has a peculiarity obvious to every observer.

In conclusion, it is my duty to state that the descriptive part of this Catalogue has been performed by Mr. F. Moore, the Assistant in the Company’s Museum ; and the experienced entomologist will recognize the skill and accuracy of Mr. J. O. Westwood in the preparation of the Illustrations.

In the Catalogue which is now offered to the public under the auspices of the Honourable Court of Directors of the East-India Company, it is intended to describe the Lepidopterous Insects con- tained in the Company’s Museum. The Materials for this Work have been enumerated above in the chronological order of their contribution.

When I commenced a Systematic arrangement of the earlier Collections in 1820, soon after my arrival in England, they con- sisted, with the exception of a small number of specimens from Ceylon, exclusively of the Lepidopterous Insects from Java, which

INTRODUCTORY REMARKS. 3

were collected by me, and deposited in the Museum between the years 1815 and 1819. Since that period, collections of various extent have been contributed from the continental possessions of the Company in the East, and from China.

In the year 1820, the Entomological Cabinet was provisionally arranged according to the plan of Dr. Leach, as given in Samoelle’s Entomologists’ useful Compendium. My attention having been devoted to other branches of Zoology, chiefly Mammalia and Birds, the Insects remained in the state of their first arrangement until the year 1825, when William Sharp Macleay, Esq., commenced, in the Annulosa Javanica,”’ a description of the Coleopterous Insects in the Museum.

Some time after this, an attempt was made to give a description of the Lepidopterous Insects in a work entitled, ‘“ Descriptive Catalogue of the Lepidopterous Insects in the Company’s Museum.”’ This work having been undertaken on a plan which could not insure public support, was discontinued after the publication of the two first numbers, in 1828 and 1829.

In undertaking that work, the systematic arrangement to be adopted was the first consideration ; and accordingly, the works of Linneeus, Latreille, Fabricius, Duméril, and other systematic Entomologists, were carefully studied, in order to direct me to the most natural method of arranging my Collection.

While thus engaged, my attention was almost accidentally called to a comparatively obscure work, rarely consulted by English Entomologists (except as an Index of Species described), which was published in Germany towards the end of the last century, entitled, ‘‘ Systematisches Verzeichniss der Schmetterlinge der Wie- nergegend, heraus-gegeben von einigen Lehrern am K. K.—TueEre- STANUM ;” which last word I found designated Messrs. Denis and Schieffermiiller, two distinguished officers of the court of Vienna, known in Germany from their charge in the Imperial Academy, by the name of ‘'T'nEreEstaANER.” In this work I discovered, to my great delight, an attempt to unite Lepidopterous Insects into groups, founded on the various stages of their existence, from the Caterpillar to the perfect Insect, or on their transformations. The maxim of the authors is, “Win Aug auf den Schmetterling, das andere Aug die Raupe”’ (one eye to the Butterfly, another to the Caterpillar). This maxim gave a new direction to my inquiries; it superseded

4 INTRODUCTORY REMARKS.

any further examination of the systems above mentioned, $0 far as relates to system and classification, these works being founded almost exclusively on a single character, and accordingly artificial, while it greatly confirmed the views which had directed my re- searches in Java, as will appear in the sequel.

Although the Wiener Verzeichniss has been called a system, it can only be considered as an accumulation of materials of the metamorphoses of European Lepidoptera, to serve for comparison by Entomologists in other countries. ‘The authors have not attempted a new Classification of the whole Order of Lepidoptera on their own principles. In the large divisions they adopt the Genera of Linneus, although they have transposed the Genera of that author, commencing with Sphinx Phalena, and terminating with Papilio ; the cause of this transposition is not explained. Mr. Westwood, in his Introduction to the Modern Classification of Insects,” gives a summary of the subdivisions and families into which the Wiener Verzeichniss is divided, with the remark, that almost every one of the divisions constitutes a modern genus. This work, although little known or regarded in England and France, is held in high estimation in Germany, where, at the period of its publication, it formed an epoch among cultivators of Entomology. Not many years after its first appearance, a new edition was required, which was undertaken on a somewhat reduced scale by the celebrated Hlliger, who describes it as one of the most acute and instructive works on Entomology ever published ; indeed, in its literary and philosophical character it may be ranked with the most perfect works on Natural Science extant at the time of its publication. It takes a most comprehensive view of Entomology in all its depart- ments ; it notices in detail all the authors and systems published at its appearance, near the end of the last century ; and the research and learning displayed in its compilation are highly creditable to the authors. After stating the design of their work, the authors describe, in a manner perhaps more comprehensive and complete than is done in any other entomological treatise, the history and peculiarities of Lepidopterous Insects, from the egg to the Butter- fly, interspersed with many original remarks, founded on their own observation. ‘The description of the families and of the individual larvee and chrysalides are given with the greatest minuteness. A series of notes and quotations is carried through the whole work,

INTRODUCTORY REMARKS. 5

furnishing the student with an abstract of all that has been recorded by the most eminent writers at the period above mentioned. The sixth and seventh sections contain many ingenious details and suggestions respecting the relative number of Lepidopterous Insects and Plants found in a given district or country ; and the authors endeavour to show that the number of both Butterflies and Plants will be found nearly equal in the Fauna and Flora of the countries that have been carefully examined. In examining the various systems extant at their time, they discuss the advantages and defects of each, with a view to prove that further researches were required to supply the vacancies remaining, in the attempt to form a natural system of arrangement, of which they had a more correct notion than most other naturalists of their day.

These sections also are invaluable in directing the pursuits of young Entomologists to the importance of collecting Lepidoptera in the various stages of their existence, both with the view to obtain perfect specimens and a complete history of the separate species. The style is colloquial, animated, and classical, and illustrated with numerous appropriate quotations in Latin, French, and English. An acquaintance with this work during my abode in Java would have enabled and directed me to carry on my researches in Kn- tomology to a greater extent than I have accomplished.

In the systematic structure of this Catalogue, I shall be guided, so far as my materials afford the means, by the character in which the subjects manifest themselves in their transformations from the first state of their existence to their perfect development, or, accord- ing to the maxim of the authors of the Wiener Verzeichniss, from the larva to the imago ; endeavouring in all cases to discover the most natural arrangement in which they can be disposed.

It is obvious that a complete arrangement of the whole Order of Lepidopterous Insects on this principle cannot be attempted at the present period, although considerable materials have already been contributed towards this object from many parts of the world ; among these, the most important are contained in the following works :—

Hiibner (Jacob).—Geschichte Europeische Schmetterlinge,

quammelt van J. H.

6 INTRODUCTORY REMARKS.

Abbott and Smith—The History of the rarer Lepidopterous Insects of Georgia.

Cramer (Pierre).—Papillons Exotiques, etc. The Supplemental Volume by Stoll.

But many extensive regions are as yet altogether unexplored, and a complete System of Lepidopterous Insects founded on their meta- morphoses is reserved for some future Entomologist provided with more ample materials than have as yet been brought together: my only object in the present work is to contribute the result of my labours in the Eastern Islands.

Deeply impressed with the importance and necessity of an ac- curate knowledge of Lepidoptera in all stages of their existence, I devoted, during several successive seasons, all the means at my command to the investigation of Javanese Lepidoptera ; and it may be not out of place here to give a brief extract from the Descriptive Catalogue above mentioned, of the method pursued by me. ‘I “lived at this time at Surakarta, a province in the interior, be- “longing to the native princes. I was amply provided with every “convenience and facility for preserving what I had collected. Several draughtsmen had likewise been trained, under my super- ‘intendence, for botanical delineations ; and the skill they acquired ‘in those, soon fitted them for the annulose department. I was, “« therefore, enabled to enter upon a history of the Metamorphoses “of Javanese Lepidoptera, a design which had long engaged my “anxious solicitude. Although I did not, at this period, so fully ‘conceive the paramount necessity of an acquaintance with the ‘“‘ Metamorphoses of Lepidoptera, towards the establishment of a ‘natural arrangement, as I have been led to do in later periods, ‘yet I was so strongly impressed with its essential importance in ‘‘ attempting a complete history of Insects, that I commenced with “a fixed determination to prosecute the inquiry with unremitted “industry and zeal, to collect all the larvee of Lepidopterous Insects “which I might possibly obtain, and to trace them through the

INTRODUCTORY REMARKS. 7

‘* various periods of their existence. With this view, I fitted up a “large apartment adjoining my residence with breeding-cages and “receptacles for chrysalides. At the commencement of the rainy ‘season, the period when, in tropical climates, the foliage of vegetables is renewed, I daily went out in search of caterpillars, “accompanied by the most intelligent of my native assistants. The caterpillars thus collected were placed in separate breeding-cages, ‘and several of the assistants were instructed to provide daily, at ‘“‘yeoular periods, the food the individuals required, and to secure ‘the cleanliness of the cages. As soon as the caterpillars were ‘approaching to perfection, a drawing was made of them. The ‘same individual which had been submitted to the draughtsman ‘“‘was then separately confined, watched with the most diligent ‘“‘ care, and as soon as it had passed into the state of a chrysalis, *‘aoain made the object of the pencil. A determinate number was “« carefully attached to the drawing and to the cage of the chrysalis. ** As soon as the perfect insect had appeared and expanded its wings, it was secured, set, and numbered, in accordance with the “larva and chrysalis. During this period, every possible solicitude “‘ was employed to prevent mistakes. ‘lhe original series, consisting “‘of the perfect insects and the chrysalides obtained by this mode “of proceeding, and numbered in accordance with the collection of * drawings made at the same time, is now deposited in the Museum “of the Honourable East-India Company, and affords an authentic “document of the accuracy of the details regarding the metamor- “‘phoses of Javanese Lepidoptera, which will be offered in the course of this work.”

By the method thus described, I obtained the complete history of the transformations of nearly 200 species of Javanese Lepidoptera. The collection varies considerably in the principal divisions of this Order. In the first great division or Tribe, comprising the Diurnal Butterflies, or Papiliones, I have been most successful, and in this tribe my materials are sufficiently extensive to illustrate the minor Groups or Stirpes into which it has been subdivided ; and in these are included also a large proportion of the Genera found in the tropical countries of the East.

Having above detailed the advantages I derived from an ac- quaintance with the Wiener Verzeichniss, so far as relates to the smaller groups of Lepidoptera, and the association of them into

8 INTRODUCTORY REMARKS.

Natural Genera on the principle employed by Messrs. Denis and Schieffermiiller, I have now to refer to another work which opened a new view to my study of Zoology generally, and especially of En- tomology,—the “‘ Horee Entomologice”’ of William Sharp Macleay, Esq. ; and I consider it a fortunate coincidence that this work made its appearance about the period of my arrival in England, and that my attention was early directed to it,—the first part having been published in 1819, the second in 1821,—while I was engaged on the provisional arrangement of the Lepidopterous Insects in the Company's Museum.

In this work, Mr. Macleay has sketched a plan, according to which the whole animal kingdom forms one natural group. In ex- planation of his system, he brings into one view almost all that is recorded by Zoological authors, both ancient and modern, in order to illustrate his theory. Itis, in fact, an epitome of Zoology, and the study of it will greatly benefit the Zoologist and the Entomologist, whether he adopts or rejects his views. It is the production of an original mind, and may be justly considered as one of the most important contributions of late years to the Philosophy of Natural History.

Without attempting an analysis of the work, I shall briefly state those points which have a reference to this Catalogue.

First. The sentiment which pervades this work, impressing in the strongest manner on the student and the cultivator of Natural History, the paramount importance of the maxim of Linneus: METHODUS NATURALIS EST ULTIMUS FINIS BOTANICES.

Secondly. The clearness with which relations of Affinity and Analogy observable in different groups of subjects of Natural History, both animal and vegetable, are propounded and explained. This law was discovered by Mr. Macleay, in 1819, in studying Lamellicorn Insects ; and was subsequently more fully discussed and elucidated in an ee contained in the fourteenth volume of the ‘T'ransactions of the Linnean Society,* chiefly with reference to a similar discovery made almost simultaneously by Elias Fries ; Griphiswaldiz, 1821, but without any communication or inter-

INTRODUCTORY REMARKS. 9

change of opinions of the respective authors, in a group of the lower vegetables, Mwngi, and which is made public in a work entitled “Systema Mycologicum, sistens Fungorum Ordines, Genera, et Species.’”’*

Thirdly. The exposition of the law, that the series of affinities In groups of the animal kingdom is progressive, and that it returns into itself ; and thus the groups form circles.

Fourthly. That the primary groups of those departments of the animal kingdom which have hitherto been investigated have been ascertained to be limited to five.

The laws enumerated in the third and fourth points have been discovered to prevail in Mammalia by Dr. J. E. Gray, detailed in the Annals of Philosophy, New Series, No. LIX., for November, 1825 ; in Birds, by N. A. Vigors, Esq., and have been detailed with great clearness in an admirable Essay contained in the fourteenth volume of the Transactions of the Linnean Society, entitled, ‘‘ Observations on the Natural Affinities that connect the Orders and Families of Birds ;” and by Dr. J. J. Kaup, of Darmstadt, in an excellent monograph of Falconidw, the subdivisions of which agree with those of N. A. Vigors, Esq., independent of any mutual communication of the respective authors; in Crustacea, by Dr. De Haan, of Leyden, who, in the Introduction of his work has the following passage :—‘‘ Secuti sumus methodum circulorum qui- nariam ab viro ornato Macleay in Horis Entomologicis expositum, qua quippe via totum nature schema aptius exponi et aflinitates facilius indicari nobis vise sunt.”+—Pramissa IX.

* Referring to Mr. Macleay’s paper, contained in the Transactions of the Linnean Society, here cited, it may be proper in this place to give the substance of the proposition of Fries in his own words:—‘ Afimia igitur sunt que in eadem serie sequuntur, et in se invicem transire videntur. Hec in ulterioribus congruunt, sed in citerioribus rationibus differunt. Analoga autem dicimus que in diversis seriebus locis parallelis posita sunt, et sibi invicem correspondent.”

It is remarkable, that a similar law was noticed by Agardh, which in his Aphorismi Botanici is described in the following words :—“ Analogia quedam et similitudo in diversis seriebus vegetabilium interdum cernatur, quasi progressa esset natura ad perfectionem per eosdem gradus sed diversa vid.”

+ In the second chapter, De ratione, qua quinque sectiones Crustaceorum inter se ligantur, he has the following remarks :—“ Plures Botanici et Zoologi in eo conveniunt et vegetabilia et’ animalia non tantum plures series distinc‘as

VOL, I. Cc

10 INTRODUCTORY REMARKS.

Fifthly. That each group in a circle is analogically represented by the corresponding group in other circles.

Sixthly. The arrangement which Mr. Macleay has made of a class of annulose animals, designated Ametabola in his System ; and its application in the present work.*

A metabola.—This Class, when first defined and introduced into the system by Dr. Leach, consisted of two divisions only, —Thysanura and Anoplura ; to these Mr. Macleay has added the two divisions of Myriapoda, namely Chilopoda and Chilognatha, and also Vermes, as defined by him, Hore Entom. p. 286. The Class, therefore, consists of the following Orders :—Vermes, Anoplura, Thysanura, Chilopoda, and Chilognatha.

The researches and inquiries which led Mr. Macleay to this arrangement, are detailed in the same work, in pp. 286-7, &c. They are founded on a very careful study of the character of these animals, with reference especially to recent accurate analyses and descriptions of Messrs. Savigny, Latreille, and Lamarck, and they afford a favourable example of the method pursued by Mr. Macleay in his inquiries.

I have now, very briefly, to state the application which Mr. Macleay has made of the several divisions of the class Ametabola, in an analogical point of view, to the larvee of Coleopterous Insects.

In the seventh chapter, treating of the tribes of Mandibulata, he gives an explanation, of which the following is the substance.— *“* When reviewing the Coleoptera with a view to a natural division, I first threw the whole into those great natural groups which occurred to my sight, and, prosecuting my inquiries, at length, when

formare, qu analogis jungantur, sed invieem connexa esse, quasi annulum annulo, Naturam non facere saltum, est adagium Linnzeanum ; multum autem abest, hunece nexum in omnibus partibus esse indicatum. IIlud vero vinculum extricare videtur scopus, in quem omnes perquisitiones in Historia Naturali debeant attendere, ut inde pateat in creatis et consensus et ordo et sapientia, si talis pre humanis excellentia humanis verbis exprimi possit. In hoc pro- positum Cl. Macleay Horas Entomologicas conscripsit ; eximio hocce in opere invenimus filum Ariadneum, quo ulterius persequendo, viam illo in labyrintho invenire possumus. Formas nempe in circulis in se redeuntibus disponere conatus est ; circularis illa dispositio nobis videtur naturee maxime conveniens.”

* Mr. Macleay’s four other primary divisions of the Annulosa being the Crus- tacea, Arachnida, Mandibulated, and Hanstellated insects.

INTRODUCTORY REMARKS. a!

thinking of their Jarvw, I discovered that each of my groups, as far as my knowledge of them went, had a peculiar character,”’— which he then briefly describes on p. 422.

Referring to the detailed description of the larvae of Coleopterous Insects which he has detected, and arranged in five groups, it is sufficient for my present purpose to state, that the jirst group, examples of which are Carabus and Dytiscus, are represented analogically by the Chilopodiform Ametabola ; the second type, of which Scarabeeus is an example, is represented analogically by the Chilognathiform Ametabola. The third type, of which Curculio and Cerambyx are examples, is represented analogically by the Vermiform Ametabola. The fourth type, of which Coccinella and Chrysomela are examples, is represented analogically by the Ano- pluriform Ametabola ; and the fi/th type, an example of which is Meloe, is represented by the Thysanuriform Ametabola.*

To guard against any misapprehension of the characters of the relations here pointed out, Mr. Macleay gives the following caution (see H. E. p. 423): The distinction, however, between affinity and analogy, is perhaps nowhere in Entomology more necessary to be attended to than here ; since, in terming larvee Chilognathiformes or Chilopodiformes, it is not meant that they are Scolopendre or Juli, or even near to them in affinity, but only that they are so constructed that certain analogical circumstances attending them strongly remind us of these A metabola.”

Considering, therefore, the determination to which Mr. Macleay has arrived regarding the primary groups of Coleoptera, and their analogical relations with certain divisions of Ametabola, according to which the whole Order resolves itself into five natural divisions, I submitted the entire series of illustrations of the Metamorphoses of Indian Lepidoptera contained in the Company’s Museum to a rigid examination ; reserving the indications afforded by this examination, so far as regards the whole Order, to a future stage of this Catalogue ; it is sufficient for my present purpose to state, that in the first Tribe of this Order, the Diurnal Lepidoptera, or Papiliones, I discovered five decided types of form, each of which

* To illustrate the five types of form observed in the first Tribe of Lepidoptera, the Papiliones, and the corresponding analogies with the Ametabola, I have pre- pared the accompanying plate exhibiting the larva and the analogous Ametabola,

manifested a clear analogy to a corresponding division of Ame- tabola ; namely,—

First. A larva of a linear oblong form, attenuated at both ends, depressed or cylindrico-convex, of a sluggish appearance, with short and scarcely perceptible feet, distinctly marked above with trans- verse stria. A pupa nearly smooth, or with comparatively few protuberances, very obtuse at the anterior extremity, attached by the abdomen, braced, vertically suspended with the head upwards or tending forwards in a horizontal direction. Representing the Vermiform Ametabola.

Secondly. A larva of a cylindrical form, generally swelled or thickened at the fourth or fifth section of the body, attenuated towards the head and posterior extremity ; in the typical genera naked, or covered with short, obtuse, fleshy protuberances ; in the extreme genera, at the boundary of the neighbouring groups, covered with a close silky down, or with short scattered hair, most remarkably distinguished by a furcula or forked tentaculum, situ- ated between the head and neck, which may be drawn back or thrust forward at pleasure. Pupa angulated and mostly tuberculated ; in the typical genera, and in those at the confines of the first group, attached by the posterior extremity, braced, and vertically sus- pended with the head upwards; in the genera approaching the third stirps, perpendicularly suspended, according to the habits of that stirps. Representing the Chilognathiform or Juliform Ametabola. “yet

Thirdly. A cylindrical larva, strikingly characterized by its terrific or threatening aspect, being covered with sharp, rigid, erect processes, often of great length, but diversified in the different subdivisions, arranged in regular longitudinal lines along the body of the larva, and beset with numerous diverging spines disposed in a verticillate manner. The attitude of the pupa is the reverse of that of the typical forms in the two former divisions: it is attached by the abdomen, while the head is directed perpendicularly down- wards ; in form it is greatly diversified. Representing the Chilo- podiform or Scolopendriform Ametabola.

Fourthly. A lengthened cylindrical striated larva, somewhat smaller at each end, apparently of an agile habit, naked, or covered with a shght down, having a head of moderate size, armed with two erect spines, or provided with a movable shield, often of great

INTRODUCTORY REMARKS. 13

size, and beset with erect hornlike processes: but the chief charac- teristic of this division consists in two very strongly marked length- ened filiform or spinous appendages at the extremity of the abdomen. The pupa is attached by the tail and suspended perpendicularly, as in the last division ; its head is in general terminated by two points of various form and length. Representing the Thysanuriform Ametabola.

Fifthly, A cylindrical larva, nearly naked, with a very large head, often globular, and attached to the body by a long neck ; characteristically distinguished from the other subdivisions by its bluntness and abrupt termination behind ; the pupa being covered by a convoluted leaf. Representing the A nopluriform Ametabola.

These separate groups, agreeably to the plan of Mr. Macleay, in the “‘ Annulosa Javanica,” will be denominated stirpes.

To answer the question which may arise, whether, in applying to one Tribe of Lepidoptera—the Papiliones—the same principle which Mr. Macleay has applied to the whole Order of Coleoptera, I have not departed from his scheme? I offer the following con- siderations :—Mr. Macleay has divided the whole Animal Kingdom into quinary groups, which are again subdivided into groups of consecutively descending value: thus, the Animal Kingdom is divided in descending order into Sub-kingdom, Class, Order, Tribe, and Stirps. This arrangement is fully exemplified in the Diagram of the whole Animal Kingdom, on page 318 of the “‘ Hore Ento- mologicw,” and in that of the sub-kingdom the Annulosa,” on page 390 of the same work ; to which I refer the reader. The same law of groups of consecutively minor value has been observed to prevail in Birds by N. A. Vigors, Esq., and in Crustacea by Dr. De Haan, of Leyden, who thus expresses himself :—‘‘ Methodum quinariam, cujus in hac invertebratorum classi specimen Entomo- lovorum judicio submittimus, in aliis usque ad familias, im aliis

14 INTRODUCTORY REMARKS.

usque ad genera persecuti sumus. Ita, secundum opus laudatum, Animalia in quinque subregna ; quinque classes dividuntur. Porro, secundum nostras observationes, Crustacea continent quinque Or- dines, quinque Tribus, quinque Familias, quinque Genera.’

In the foregoing introductory remarks, I have endeavoured to detail the principles which will direct me in the compilation of this Catalogue. The indications afforded by the several individuals described in all stages of their existence, will be carefully studied and applied. I have acknowledged the advantage derived from the examination of the ‘‘ Hor Entomologice” of Mr. Macleay, and especially from his remark, that ‘‘ considerations founded on the metamorphoses must ultimately produce the most natural plan of entomological arrangement.” But I desire that it may be distinctly understood, that it is not my purpose to give an illustration of his particular system; my object being to contribute a fragment towards a future enterprise of a more qualified entomologist. In a collection from a territory of limited geographical extent, large chasms remain to be supplied from more extensive localities. In the construction of my groups, I shall endeavour to discover the prominent forms, and to arrange them according to their affinities ; and where their analogies to the Ametabola are evident, I shall point them out; but I shall not attempt to form them strictly on the model given by Mr. Macleay, or to pursue their division into typical and aberrant forms.

My reference to the works of Mr. Vigors on Birds, and to Dr. De Haan on Crustacea, is to afford a confirmation of Mr. Macleay’s views, but not as an indication of my intention to pursue the subject in this Catalogue, to the same extent to which they have pursued it. The most natural division of the order of Lepidoptera, which may result from my examination, is reserved for a future stage of this work; in the first part I propose to describe the Papiliones, Sphinges, and Bombyces.

a.b.c.d. @ 9. Java, From Dr. Horsfield’s Col-

lection.

The characters of this genus are peculiar, and its situation in a Natural Series remains for future investigation. Its chief peculiarity consists in the character of its legs, of which Mr. Westwood gives the following description: Legs rather short, slender, scaly, com- pressed. The tarsi in all the feet, with the basal joint, remarkably

elongated, widened, and quite compressed ; the tarsus in the fore-legs of the male being exarticulate, and as long as the femur and tibia united ; second, third, and fourth joints in the four hind-legs very short, terminal joint small, subovate, notched at its obliquely-trun- cated extremity, with extremely minute ungues.”

2. MILETUS BOISDUVALI, Moore (Plate 1a, fig. 1).

M. Boisduvali, n. sp.—Uvrnr-stpr brown; fore-wing with a whitish fascia running from near the middle of the anterior margin to near the anal angle ; hind-wings slightly angulated. UNDER-SIDE pale brown; jfore-wing, with fascia, as on upper side, intersected with veinlets, and having three spots in the disciodal cell, one on each of the three anterior subcostal veinlets ; also an undulated spot near the anterior angle, and a small blackish dot between each veinlet near the exterior margin; hind-wing also marked with undu- lated spots and stripes, and with a dot between each veinlet. Form of wings as in 2 Sym@etha; expanse of wings 1,4; in.

“In many essential points, the form of the palpi and antenne, the peculiarities of the feet, &c., this insect agrees with the character of the genus Polyommatus, but its habit and aspect are very peculiar : this is owing to the great length and lateral expansion of the wings, to their comparative narrowness, and to their being regularly ellip- tical and rounded in the anal region.”’—(Horsfield, Catal.)

“This insect has also naked eyes, scaly palpi, and spurless fore tibie, but the wings have the veins arranged in the ordinary manner, and the ungues and their appendages are as small and inconspicuous as in the genus Lycena.”’—( Westwood, Diurn. Lep.)

The following notice of the transformations of this interesting species was read before the Entomological Society of London, February 2, 1835, by J. O. Westwood, Esq., having been traced by Mr. Charles King, of Madras.

“The larvee of this butterfly reside in the interior of the pome- granate ; seven or eight, at least, having been reared in the interior of a small specimen of this fruit. Of the mode in which the eggs are deposited by the female in the interior of the pomegranate, no information has been received ; it is, however, probable that this is effected whilst the fruit is in its very young state. The caterpillars feed upon the seeds and inner part of the fruit, which is thus weak- ened, and rendered unable to support its own weight, and conse- quently liable to have its stem broken, and to fall to the ground with the first wind. This, however, would be destruction to the inclosed insects; since, in all probability, they would find it impos- sible to make their escape were the fruit to be suffered to lie rotting upon the ground. To obviate this evil, the caterpillars, when full fed, have the instinct to eat a hole, about a quarter of an inch in diameter, through the hard shell of the fruit, whilst it remains upon the tree ; through this hole they then creep to the stem of the fruit, and spin a white web, which they attach to the basal part of the fruit as well as to the stem, for about the distance of an inch along the latter. This web is sufficiently strong to support the pome- granate from falling after the wind has broken the stem near to the fruit, as is the case in the specimen of the fruit in hand.

_ From the circumstance of this specimen having as many holes in it as there were caterpillars inhabiting it, it is most probable that the web thus spun is a joint production of the whole.*

* Tt is curious, as evidencing the instinctive impulses under which each of the inclosed larvee must have acted, that, instead of availing themselves of the first aperture made in the fruit, each caterpillar should be at the trouble of making a hole for itself, a circumstance which renders it the more probable that all joined in spinning the web.

LEPIDOPTERA. 35

But it will be at once asked, What necessity could there be for the caterpillars to secure the fruit from falling after each has bored a hole and thus made its escape? This question is answered by the curious circumstance that, after so securing the fruit, the caterpillars return again into the pomegranate, in the hollow interior of which they undergo their transformation to the chrysalis state.

Here, too, we may notice another interesting fact, namely, that the insect has the precautionary instinct, which acts as a second inducement, to make the aperture in the fruit in that stage of its existence in which it is furnished with organs best adapted for the purpose ; for, had the larva omitted taking this step, the consequence would have been, that the poor insect, when come to its butterfly state, would have been a prisoner, totally unable to make its escape, being unprovided with any instrument sufficiently powerful to make a hole in the shell; therefore, in this butterfly, it is absolutely neces- sary that a complete aperture should be left open; and as this is a circumstance which necessarily leaves the pupa exposed, it is not surprising that nature should seldom resort to such a proceeding in the case of internal-feeding insects. Perhaps even in this almost solitary instance, we may fairly imagine that the situation is suff- ciently retired to insure them protection from many of their enemies. These chrysalides are attached horizontally upon the inner walls of the pomegranate, by means, first, of a patch of silk laid upon its sur- face, to the centre of which the tail of the chrysalis is affixed, and, second, of a slender silken thread, passing from side to side over the base of the abdominal segments. As to the manner in which the girthed suspension is effected after the larva has attached itself, I may be allowed to make the following short extract from Messrs. Kirby and Spence’s third volume, p. 212. In this order of insects, which have several modus operandi, some of the larvee which have a short and more rigid body (as Lycena Argus, and many more of the Papiliones rwrales and urbicole), ‘after having bent the head on one side so as to fix one end of the thread, bring themselves into a straight position, and, by a manceuvre not easily described, contrive to introduce the head under the thread, which they then bend them- selves to fasten on the other side, pushing it to its proper situation by the successive tension and contraction of their segments. A short time after this is effected, the skin of the caterpillar bursts, and its skin is gradually sloughed off beneath the girth, until the pupa is entirely naked; the exuvie being collected at the gation of the abdomen.

36 CATALOGUE OF

Another curious instance of instinct yet remains to be noticed. The butterfly, so soon as ever it has escaped from the puparium, must make its escape out of the hole formed by the larva; delay would be death, as the wings would soon acquire their full expansion of nearly a couple of inches; in which state it would, of course, be unable to creep out.

In the chrysalis state, the belly of the insect is placed in contact with the inner surface of the fruit; consequently, as the slit by which the butterfly escapes out of the puparium extends along the back, the under surface of the latter remains entire, the anterior lateral portions on each side the slit (extending as far as the whole coverings of the wings) curling up and lying close upon those parts which had covered the breast and limbs, leaving the abdominal portion in the same form as when it inclosed the insect.”

E. T. Downes, Esq., in the Calcutta Journal of Natural History, observes: “I am induced to call the attention of Entomologists to the caterpillar of the butterfly which is so destructive to the fruit of the pomegranate (Punicea granatum), as my observations regarding its habits do not correspond with the account given above. At the time the pomegranate is in flower, and at a very early period, the Hair Streak may be seen very busily occupied about the flowers, and I have little doubt that the eggs are deposited at the bottom of the calyx, from the position in which I have seen the abdomen of the butterfly placed ; as the fruit enlarges, the eggs are inclosed, and in this situation matured. Recollecting the history of this insect, I determined to enjoy the pleasure of seeing it go through its various stages (the pomegranate-tree being close to my door). In order that I might obtain a perfect insect, I surrounded several of the fruit with fine gauze, but in such a manner as not in the least to interfere with the caterpillar in its labour of connecting the fruit and stalk by means of the web ; but, to my astonishment and disap- pointment, this never took place; the caterpillars issued from the fruit, and, finding their escape impeded, underwent their change on the external part ; and so soon as this was effected, I removed the fruit from the tree for the purpose of placing it in a musquito gauze house in my room. Subsequently, I examined several of the fruit, but I never found any chrysalide, or the remains of any, inside the fruit. I was very careful in my observations, and I came to the conclusion that the caterpillars, in this instance, deserted the fruit when ready to undergo their change; and I have no doubt of the butterfly being the same, viz., Thecla Isocrates.’

“In Java, the larva of this species feeds on various species of Cassia, particularly on the C. fistula and C. obtusifolia ; it is, how- ever, occasionally found on other plants. It is extremely abundant, particularly in the early part of the rainy season, after the renewal of the foliage of these plants. I must, however, remark, that the _various species of Colias resemble each other so closely in the larva state, that the distinction of species is extremely difficult. The greatest number of specimens obtained by breeding belong to this species (C. Scylla); but in examining the series put up in Java in illustration of the drawings prepared during the progress of this research, I observed several specimens of C. Jugurthina and C. Al- cmeone, a circumstance which shows their near resemblance in the larva state. Among these specimens is contained that remarkable variety of C. Jugurthina figured by Cramer with the name of Papilio Crocale.’’—(Horsfield.)

“This genus, of which as yet we know but two species, is easily known by its large size, the gradually thickening antenne, the pecu- liar form of the palpi, and the presence of a disco-cellular nervule. The minute terminal joints of the palpi and the form of the pupa in- dicate an affinity to Anthocharis ; its antenne and the form of the larva point out an equal one to [Colas] Callidryas.”’—(Doubleday.)

This insect is not unfrequent in Java; the larva feeds on a species of Capparis, distinguished by the native name of Wanwannan: Feb- ruary to April.’’—(Horsfield.)

“This beautiful genus, of which one species only is yet known, may be distinguished at a glance from the others of this family, by its long porrect palpi. There is little else in its structure to separate it from Ornithoptera or Papilio, though some of its peculiarities in- dicate an approach to Thais, a genus in which the palpi are more developed than in any other of the Papilionide, with the exception of Teinopalpus. The posterior wings differ materially im the two sexes ; in the male they are dentate, one-tailed ; in the female, three- tailed.

Nothing is known of its habits beyond the fact of its inhabiting the highest ranges of the Himalayas, especially towards the frontiers of Assam, and there it seems to be of very rare occurrence.’’— (Doubleday, Diurnal Lep.)

The larva and pupa of P. dissimilis are figured on Plate IL, fig. 3, 3a, 3b, and were copied from the drawings of General Hard- wicke, now in the Library of the British Museum. This species has been also reared in Ceylon by E. L. Layard, Esq. The transform- ations were also observed by Lady Gilbert, among whose drawings figures are given. Her ladyship states that “it feeds on a plant called by the natives Maike. The larva was obtained on the 26th July; two days after it commenced its transformation, and on the following day the chrysalis resembled a dried twig, adhering to the frame only by the extremity of the tail, and supported on each side by two fine threads: in this state it died.”

Occurs in warm glens as well as in the Dhoon, but it does not appear to be very numerous.”—(Captain T. Hutton, Trans. Ent. Soc. V. p. 49.)

Pap. Janaka, n. sp.—UPrer-sivE black; hind-wing with a white patch on the disc, which is divided by three of the veinlets, thus forming four separate patches, the outer one on each side being the shortest, and the two nearest the abdominal margin being tinged with red; three sub-marginal and three marginal lunules and circular mark at anal angle red; tail with two red spots. UNpmr-sIDE black ; fore-wing with the base red; hind-wing with patch on disc as on upper-side, but the one nearest abdominal margin nearly covered with red, which colour is continued upwards and downwards, occu- pying the base of the wing and the whole space between the third median veinlet and sub-median vein; lunules as above, but are larger, and a fourth sub-marginal one appears between the discoidal and first median veinlets ; tail spotted as above; cili# between the angles white; head, neck, body beneath, and sides, red. Wings shaped as in P. Bodtes, Westwood, Arc. Ent. t. 31. Expanse of wings 5 in.
