Art the period when the first edition of this work was presented to the public, the study of exotic insects, and indeed the science of Entomology itself, had made but little progress in this country. The collections of Francillon, Drury, MacLeay, Sir J. Banks, and Donovan, contained almost all that was then known of Indian Entomo- logy, with which our Continental neighbours were then, as still, comparatively ignorant. To these collections, examined by Fabricius himself, Donovan had free access, and his figures of the insects therein contained, which had served as types for the descriptions of the Entomologist of Kiel, are especially valuable. The progress of Entomology, as a science, has so much advanced, as to render a republication of this work advisable; at the same time, however, requiring that its original Linnzan style should not be retained, but that it should be brought down to the present state of science. This I have endeavoured to do, by rendering the specific characters more detailed, the nomenclature more correct, the synonyms more nume- rous, and the localities more precise. I have added many additional observations, omitting nothing which appeared in the former at all likely to instruct or interest the reader. Alphabetical and systematic indices of the work are introduced, as well as numbers, both for the plates, and for the individual figures on each plate, which were omitted in the former edition, which appeared in parts, commencing in the year 1800. b PREFACE. It has unfortunately happened, from the careless indications of the older autho- vities, that many insects inhabiting the West Indies have been given as natives of East India; and hence it has happened that Donovan, having no means of ascertain- ing the true locality of various species, introduced into the present work several West Indian insects. With these exceptions, the present work is intended to illustrate “the Entomological productions of a country for which we ought to cherish the liveliest and deepest interest, as being connected intimately with the prosperity, the dignity, and the honour of the British Empire; in a word, of British India”? em- bracing also illustrations of those species which inhabit every other part of that vast continent, as well as the islands situated in the Indian Seas. In respect, therefore, both to the circumstance of this great territory being pecu- harly confided to our care, and more especially to the remarkable character of its natural productions, the investigation of its Entomological treasures becomes the especial province of the English entomologist. Thus, whilst our museums teem with undescribed insects from India, collected by General Hardwicke, Colonel Sykes, Colonel Whithill, Captain Smee, Messrs. Saunders, Royle, Downes, &c. &c., Dr. Perty, writing in 1831, observes in his ‘‘ Observationes nonnull in Coleoptera Indiz Orientalis,”—‘ Preesertim tempore novissimo in Galliz et Germanix museis, communicatione propinqua cum illa regione deficiente, Indize orientalis Coleoptera rarius inveniuntur.” In order to shew the peculiar character of Indian Entomology to its full extent, a far greater space would be required than can here be possibly given to it. A few remarks will not, however, be out of place. From its peculiar situation, as the great intermediate southern peninsula of Asia, it may be easily conceived, not only that India comprises various types of form peculiar to itself, but that it also borrows portions of those found in the Arabian and Siamese peninsule ; the former of which comprises, of course, a greater portion of forms PREFACE. Vv peculiar to eastern Africa, Asia minor, and even southern Turkey; whilst to the latter is imparted a portion of the peculiarities of the Entomology of Borneo, and the other great islands lying south of the Equator. The entomological peculiarities of the Himalayan Mountains have been submitted to a minute analysis, by the Rev. F. W. Hope. In the order Coleoptera we accordingly find various genera and species, either exclusively confined to India, or occurring therein and in the countries above indicated. Thus the most splendid species of Cicindela, and the genera Therates, 'Tricondyla, and Colliuris, in the family Cicindelide, do not occur beyond the limits of India and the Indian Archipelago. The genera Catascopus, Orthogonius, many fine Panagzi, Wc. amongst the Carabide ; the most splendid of all the Buprestide, and the beautiful group of Elateride, typified by Elater aureolus, (some of the species of both of which extend in their range to China,) occur in India. In the great group of Lamellicorn Coleoptera, (Scarabzeus, Linn.) the species of Onthophagus are excessively numerous, of large size and fine colours, whilst the giant Dynastide, (which are so abundant in South America,) are here represented chiefly by the small group Chalcosoma, Hope, (S. Atlas, &c.) and by D. Dichotomus and D. longimanus; the Cetoniz, Euchlore, and Popilliz, on the other hand, are far more numerous and beautiful. The Lucani are of much larger size, and far more numerous than in South America. The species of Longicorn beetles are numerous, but the giant Prioni are of very rare occurrence in India, as compared with South America, The splendid genera Sagra, Podontia, and Phyllocharis, with many fine Eumorphi, and various Paussidx, are especially natives of these regions. In the Orthoptera, many curious Phasme, with the singular genus Phyllium, and numerous splendid Grylli, Linn., including the remarkable Schizodactyla monstrosa, may be mentioned. In the Hemiptera, the most splendid of all the species of Scutel- lera, and of Cicada, with several curious Fulgore, and other Fulgorideous insects ;* * M. Guérin has recently elucidated this group, in Bélanger’s “‘ Voyage aux Indes Orientales.” al PREFACE. and in the Lepidoptera, Priamus, and its allies, (the most magnificent of all the butterflies, Ornithopterus,) and the delicate Idez, are especially to be noticed, as well as several species of the curious Dipterous genus Diopsis. We are still, however, far from having attained a perfect idea of the Entomo- logical treasures of India, every new arrival making us acquainted with new and beautiful species. INDIA. Order.

This is one of the most extraordinary species of the great Scarabei of Linneus. The specimen here figured was purchased by the late Mr. Tunstal, from the cabinet of a Dutch governor in the Hast Indies, with other rare species figured in this work. At the period of the first publication of this work it was considered unique, and was regarded as an inhabitant of the island of Amboyna, in the Hast Indies. Linnzus, Fabricius, Madame Merian, and Margrave, give South America as the locality of the insect described in the works of the two former authors under the name of Scarabzeus B 2 COLEOPTERA. Atlas, whilst Swammerdam and Edwards, who are both referred to by Linnzus, give Japan and Borneo as its habitat. That the Hast Indies is the real locality of the insect here represented, is rendered most probable, from the circumstance of several other, and very closely allied species, being found in that part of the world. Such are the Scarabeus Caucasus, Fabr. (described from an East Indian specimen in the British Museum, and regarded by Olivier, and Jablonsky, as a variety of Atlas) ; Scarabeus Charon, Oliv. ; the Javanese Scarabeeus Hector, Dejean ; Dynastes Hesperus, Hrichson, from the island of Luzon ; and Dynastes Jephthah, of MacLeay, (in the collection of the Entomological Society). It is true that the chief distinctions amongst these species are found in the size of the horns of the head and thorax, and in the teeth, or serration of the hinder part of the horn of the head; but it is equally true, that we are by no means furnished with sufficiently accurate data for ascertaining the extent of variation in the cornuted Scarabeei in this respect, and we are therefore by no means enabled to regard these as | satisfactory species. Indeed, in the volume of the Naturalist’s Library devoted to exotic Coleoptera, we have an original figure of an insect, with the name of Atlas attached, in which the horn of the head has a double series of serratures from the base to the apex, and which was brought from Rangoon; and in the Fabrician description this horn is stated to be tridentate, the anterior tooth being the strongest. As it is, however, most probable that some, at least, of the above mentioned species are distinct, it is convenient to regard these insects as forming a distinct sub- genus, characterized not only by the peculiar structure of the horns, and the polished surface of the body, but by the variations in the structure of the mouth. Mr. Hope has accordingly given to them the name of Chalcosoma, in his Coleopterous Manval, recently published. ONTHOPHAGUS SPINIFEX. Plate II. fig. 1. Faminy. ScaraBaips, MacLeay. Guyus.

There are two oblique white spots at the base of the suture of the elytra, which gives the insect the appearance of possessing a distinct scutellum.

The Buprestis sternicornis, and chrysis, are collected in India for similar purposes, but being scarce, are esteemed more valuable than the other kind, which they receive at a low price from China. Both species are brought from Madras and Bombay, but generally in a mutilated state ; for the Indians perforate them at both ends, and string them like beads, when they collect them.

The first account of the genus Paussus appears in a small tract written by Linneus, and published at Upsal, in the year 1775, under the title of Bige Insectorum, &e. This paper contains likewise a description of the Diopsis genus, which, together with the Paussus, are unquestionably two of the most singular genera of the many tribes of insects hitherto discovered. Both may possibly derive some additional celebrity also, from the recollection that the dissertation in which they are inserted, concluded the Entomological labours of that distinguished naturalist: it was the last he ever published in the department of zoology. : s) COLEOPTERA. In the dissertation alluded to, species, P, microcephalus, both of which, drawn by descriptions, Fuessly is inde the genus Paussus is exemplified by a single and Diopsis by D. ichneumonea, a plate with figures of J. Afzelius, and engraved by Berquist, accompany the It is to this plate, and the original descriptions of Linnzus, that bted solely for the account he gives of both these genera, in his Archiv. der Insectengeschichte, printed at Zurich in 1783, as well as in the French translation of that work which afterwards appeared in Paris. Indeed, as Professor Afzelius has Suggested, from the repeated errors that appear in those works, in translating the Linnzean observations, defining the character of the genus Paussus, &c., it is very hikely that neither Fuessly, nor his translators, Herbst, Gmelin, and some other writers who have treated on it, ever saw an insect either of this genus, or of Diopsis. Thunberg, during his travels through the country of the Hottentots in 1772, found two coleopterous insects, which he conceived, with much propriety, ought to be referred to a new genus, none of those established previous to his departure from Europe by Linnzus being calculated to admit them. But on his return to Sweden, he found that Linnzeus in his absence had described the genus Paussus, to which they might be referred. An account of these was afterwards inserted in the Tran- sactions of the Royal Academy of Stockholm for 1781: this paper is accompanied with a figure of only one of the insects mentioned, P. lineatus, a species very aptly named, from the distinct longitudinal streak on each of the wing cases; the other insect described by Thunberg, he calls ruber. Fabricius consigned these, with the Linnzan insect, to his genus Cerocoma. . The latest history of the genus Paussus, previous to the first edition of this work, was from the pen of Professor Afzelius, a learned, copious, and elaborate paper, in- serted in the fourth volume of the Transactions of the Linnean Society, in which he describes Paussus microcephalus, and another species which he found in Africa, which he names P. spherocerus. Neither of those insects are allied to the species figured in this plate, which were entirely undescribed. For this important accession of new species to a group so little known, Donovan was indebted to the active and praise- worthy zeal of Mr. Fichtel, in compliment to whom one of them is named Fichtelii. Since the publication of the first edition of this work, various additional species have been discovered, constituting a very natural family, distributed into several dis- tinct genera, of which I have published a monograph in the sixteenth volume of the Linnzan Transactions. I have also more recently become acquainted with several other species, of which figures and descriptions have been laid before the Entomolo- gical Society of London. 10 COLEOPTERA. Donovan, in order to admit this species into the genus Paussus, was induced to adopt the Linnean generic character, with the omission of the oi “ clava solida,”’ although, according to the characters laid down by Afzelius, 16 ought not to be admitted into the genus, since he states that the tarsi are only three-jointed, whereas in the other species they are five-jointed. They are however four jointed, but in con- sequence of the more important variation in the structure of the mouth, which Donovan neglected to examine, I considered it requisite to establish this species as a distinct genus.

The thorax in this insect is so deeply divided across the middle, that it appears, at first sight, as if it were really two, whence the specific name thoracicus. The same character also exists in P. Fichtelu, which Donovan considered might possibly be the other sex of P. thoracicus ; the most striking difference prevailing in the structure of the antennz, the excavation in one of which is of an oval, or rather shuttle shape, and in the other pyriform. In my monograph I have pointed out other characters which have induced me to consider the two species as entirely distinct. el COLEOPTERA. PAUSSUS FICHTELII. Plate V. fig. 3. Species.

Donovan well observed that this species truly deserves the title regalis, being an ageregate of beauty and splendour: of the loveliest ccerulean, changing alternately to the deeper glow of the violet, to green, or the transitory sparkling of intermingled silver. Every space of blue is constantly contrasted with another of crimson, and which, as the violet changes to blue or green, alters its aspect to a still more vivid expanse of gold. Hach of those colours, the blue and red, are distinct; for an irregular space of black limits every spot and marking, and relieves the whole. As the effect of such a combination of colours in this comparatively small species is in- conceivably splendid, and almost inimitable, one figure in the plate is intended to show the natural size, and to admit of more perfect delineation, another somewhat magnified is added also. This insect, which Donovan believed to be wnique in Great Britain, was brought from France, in the collection of Mons. De Calone, and was in the possession of the author. Linnzeus met with it in one of the cabinets on the continent, and described it as a South American insect. In the works of Fabricius, its habitat is given “in Indiis.” On this authority Donovan introduced it amongst the insects of Hast India, but it was the practice of Fabricius, and the older authors, to employ the term “in Indiis,” to designate the West as well as the East Indies. The real locality of this species is South America, Peru, and the island of Saint Domingo. 13 COLEOPTERA. CALANDRA PALMARUM. Plate VI. fig. 2. Division. RuyYNCOPHORIDES, Schunherr. Genus.

It was originally brought from India by the inte Governor Holford, and is now in the possession of the author. He has sought in vain for this species in other cabinets of exotic insects, and ventures to deem his specimen unique.” Donovan, adopting the opinion of the luminosity of the Fulgore, then proceeds : __ Tn the course of our remarks on the Fulgora so abundant in China, F. candelaria, our attention was naturally directed to the astonishing property some insects of this genus are known to possess, that of emanating light; and it was to this insect we alluded in particular, when speaking of one from interior India, that enabled us to extend our observations on that property. The trunk is large, of a dark purple, thickly sprinkled with spots of white phosphoric powder, and the apex, which is scarlet, and somewhat pellucid, still retains a reddish glow, that almost convinces us the creature when living could diffuse light both from the apex and the spots. In admitting this conjecture, without wandering into the marvellous, its nocturnal appearance must be infinitely more singular than either of the known species of Fulgore, Lampyrides, or any other luminous insect yet discovered, for, when on the wing, the illuminated apex would resemble a globule of fire, or heated iron, and the numberless phosphoric spots on the tube form a train of glittering stars to accom- pany it.* “The only figure of a Fulgora in any respect resembling this species is given in the works of Stoll, under the title of De Groote Groene Coromandelische Lantaarn- drager ;+ but among other evident specific distinctions we need only notice the structure of the trunk, which is altogether different, bemg much recurved, and tapering gradually from the base to an acute point at the apex: its colour is also an olive black.”’ * « As it may be thought improbable that any insect can exhibit such an extraordinary appearance, the words of Olivier on some species of Lampyrides may not be unsatisfactory. The insects are certainly very distinct, but reports of travellers countenance an opinion that the phosphoric emanations are analogous in the species of both genera, ‘The phenomena produced by a natural phosphorus is still more wonderful in some foreign species, in which the males shine, and being provided with wings, will produce in their rapid flight a thousand small stars.—Olivier, Histoire des Insectes.” + “Pl. 26, fig. 143. Green lantern-carrier fly of Coromandel.—At the conclusion of the description, Stoll says, ‘In de Nederlandsche Kabinetten, dc. dc.’—‘ This insect was not known in the cabinets of the low countries till within three years, [anno 1780,] during which time a few were brought from Tranquebar, on the Coromandel coast, to the cabinet of natural curiosities of his Highness the Stadtholder of the United Provinces, of which I have been obligingly permitted to take the figure of a female by Mons.

This, it may be observed, is commonly the appearance of the insect after death : such was no doubt the colour of the specimens delineated by Roesel; nor can we for a moment hesitate in believing that the insects described by the accurate Linnzeus and Dr. Shaw exhibited the like appearance. The specimen of the winged insect in our cabinet, has been preserved, however, with more than usual care. Immediately after the death of the creature, as we have reason to suspect, the abdomen had been opened, and so nicely excavated that no portion of the entrails, or oily fluids, which would have inevitably destroyed the true colour, was allowed to remain. The natural colour is therefore preserved, which is not of a pale brown, as is commonly imagined, but of a delicate, lovely green; a colour dependant, it appears, upon a thin internal coating immechately beneath the outer skin, the latter of which is perfectly transparent, and destitute of any colour. ‘The pupa of this curious species is represented, together with the perfect insect, on the Vinca rosea. «There is also a much smaller pupa depicted in the upper part of the plate, that was discovered in one of the islands of the Indian seas, and belonged to the cele: brated Mr. Bailey, the astronomer who sailed in one of the expeditions with Captain D2 20 ORTHOPTERA. Cook. This is of an analogous kind to that of the Mantis siccifolia, though evidently distinct. The perfect insect, and in consequence the species, is unknown to us. Our only motive for inserting it is to shew the peculiar singularity of the abdomen, in the middle of which there are two remarkable subquadrangular spots of a filmy texture, that are transparent, and may be seen through very distinctly.”’— Donovan. Mr. G. R. Gray, in his Synopsis of the Phasmide, has characterized the last named insect as a distinct species, with the description :— P. Donnovani (Pupa) : viride, abdomine medio maculis duabus hyalinis subquadratis. Long. Corp. 1—5. Exp. Corp. 63. The chief character of this supposed insect is, I believe, indicative only of the males, notwithstanding the shortness of the antennz in the accompanying figure, which it is not improbable are fictitious, the antennz of the male pupz being much longer, and more numerously articulated, than in the females. If this supposition should be ascertained to be correct, I have little doubt that the figure in question represents merely the male pupa of Ph. siccifolium, and not of a distinct insect. In the Crochard edition of the Regne Animal, a figure is given of the male pupa, which is described as the perfect state of that sex; but unfortunately only the three basal segments of the abdomen are represented, the fourth, which bears the ocelli, and the remaining segments being omitted.

Donovan states that “this very singular creature is found in the vicinity of Bengal, where, according to the information of Mr. Fichtel, it is by no means common. It lives under ground, like the Gryllus Campestris, and some other well known analogous European insects of this tribe.” This fact is of considerable interest, since it clearly proves the strong relation which exists between this interesting species and the family of the crickets, Achetide ; a relation strengthened, moreover, by the general structure of the body; the anal appendages, (one of which is shown in the accompanying figure); the horizontal 22 ORTHOPTERA. position of the dorsal part, and the vertical position of the lateral part of the tegmina ; as well as the general colour of the insect. ; M. Brullé has very judiciously formed this insect into a new group; which he has named Schizodactylus, from the remarkable structure of the tarsi, which are furnished with curious dilated plates, and are four-jointed. It is chiefly on this account M. Brullé has removed this insect to the family of the grasshoppers, with long antenne, (Gryllide, Leach. Locustaires, Latr.). M. Brullé has also been induced to adopt this arrangement, by the greater length of the maxillary palpi, and the large size of the wings. The last mentioned character is, however, especially that of many of the crickets, (Achetide,) for instance, the common house cricket; and the size of the palpi is scarcely a character of first-rate importance. M. Brullé has moreover omitted to notice, that the anterior tibie are destitute of that peculiar oval cavity which he expressly states (p. 125) to be found ‘ dans tows les insects de cette famille.” Hence, from the majority of its characters, I am still induced to place this insect in the family Achetide, regarding it as the connecting link between that family and the Gryllide. The genus Anostostoma of Gray, (Mag, Nat. Hist. 2nd series, 1 p. 148.) is another very interesting link. PHYLLOPHORA AMBOINENSIS. Plate XTIT. fig. 1. Famity. Gryiums, Leach. Locustaires, Latreille.

The wing-cases, as usual in this tribe, bear no very distant resemblance to the leaves of certain plants, not only in colour, but also in the outline, and still more so in the conformation of the nerves which arise and branch off towards the extremities, exactly in the same manner as the nerves arise, and ramify, from the mid-rib in the leaves of the far ereater number of plants. One peculiarity in the structure of the elytra in our new species deserves remark: the scutel, or rather that portion of the wing-case on the left side that folds over the back when the creature is at rest, is of a much stronger texture than any other part of the insect, except the thorax, and serves as an external covering or defence to the corresponding lobe of the other wing-case, which is of a more delicate nature, consisting only of a thin and pellucid membrane, the surface of which is hyaline or glassy. The wings are re- markably tender, of a whitish colour, and semitransparent.’’—Donovan. PHYLLOPHORA CITRIFOLIA. Plate XIII. fig. 2. Species.

This species was originally described by Drury, from whom all subsequent writers (including Donovan) have derived their descriptions and figures of this exceedingly rare butterfly. Drury states that he was unaware from what country his specimen was obtained. Fabricius, however, gave India as its country, on which authority, apparently, Donovan introduced it into this work, observing that it might “ be num- bered with much propriety among the rarest of the Papilio tribe found in India.”” In the second edition of Drury’s Illustrations, I have stated the incorrectness of this locality, on the authority of a specimen in the collection of the Rev. F. W. Hope, brought from tropical Africa by the late Mr. Ritchie. Had the insect moreover been an inhabitant of India, it would surely have been received more frequently. No specimen however, as far as I am aware, is contained in any of the continental collections. PAPILIO ANTIPHUS. Plate XV. fig. 2. Species.

It is a native of Amboyna, where we understand it is extremely rare, and bears a considerable price among the Dutch amateurs in that island. We obtained a pair of them in fine condition some years ago from the cabinet of the late Mr. Tunstall, who had purchased them in Holland, from a collection made by one of the Dutch governors in Amboyna, This rarity is figured in a resting position on the blossoms of the Mimosa Grandiflora.” 29 LEPIDOPTERA.

Donovan observes of this species, that “it 1s one of the many magnificent natural 29 productions of Amboyna, and is extremely rare.” By Donovan it was given as the Papilio Panthous, with the further observation, “‘ The supposed female of this insect is also considered as the female of Papilio Priamus; it is a gigantic creature, being still larger than the butterfly represented, but it is less beautiful, and the general colour an obscure reddish brown.” The insect here referred to by Donovan is the real Papilio Panthous, and is now generally considered to be the true female of P. Priamus. The insect here figured is evidently a male, as may be seen from the anal valve, which so peculiarly distinguishes the males of the Ornithopteri. Hence Godart and Boisduval must be in error in giving this figure as the female of Priamus. In the nearly uniform colour of the upper wings it better agrees with P. Remus, although the markings of the posterior wings are different. I have not, however, 31 LEPIDOPTERA, ventured to give it as a distinct species, considering it possible that the markings may be hable to variation. It is figured resting on a flower of the double variegated Japan rose, a scarce variety of the Camellia Japonica. Tn the Naturalist’s Library, Entomology, vol. 5, p. 89, this figure is given as the female of Priamus, although a figure agreeing with the present is likewise given under the name of Remus.

[ilustr. new series, pl. 98. Originally described by Fabricius from the Banksian Collection and Mr. Jones’s drawings ; and as the present figure exactly agrees with the Fabrician description, it is most probable that it was from one of these sources (to both of which Donovan had access) that this figure was taken. This is of some importance, as the species has been confounded with several others, as may be seen from the synonyms quoted above, and as it is liable to considerable variation in the spots of the posterior wings, and in the occasional paler radiation of the superior wings. Ina specimen which I possess, exactly corresponding with this figure, the neck has a scarlet band, and there are some scarlet bands at the sides of the thorax beneath. The transformations of this species have been observed by Dr. Horsfield in Java, and figures of the larva and pupa published in the Lepidoptera Javanica (pl. 4, f. 13). The caterpillar is thick, of a yellowish colour, with a broad dorsal white line. It is armed with eight rows of erect obtuse fleshy appendages, as well as with a furcate 32 LEPIDOPTERA. tubercle behind the head. The chrysalis is thick, curved and armed on the back of each of the three intermediate abdominal segments with a pair of conical points. Dr. Horsfield considers this insect as the type of the last of the three great sec- tions of the genus Papilio having the antenna with obscure annuli, (vide synopt. table). Mr. Swainson gave it as a subgenus named Amphrisius, confounding the two species Heliacon and Amphrisius together, and applying the latter name as that of the genus. But as Priamus and its allies are the types of the same group, it would be absurd, even were it not inconvenient, to retain this genera name. I have therefore employed M. Boisduval’s name of Ornithoptera, altering its termination, however, to make it agree with the sex of the old genus Papilio, from which it has been separated. ID ANTE ERO) IL 1D) 743) 0s).

This species was originally described from the collection of Mr. Drury and Mr. Jones’s drawings, which evidently supplied Mr. Donovan with the present figure.

It is most probable that this figure represents an injured individual of Papilio Mutius, which differs only from Astyanax in possessing tails to the posterior wings. This might have occurred through the tails having been broken off, or as in Papilio Polydorus, some individuals of P. Mutius may possess only very rudimental tails. The species was originally described by Fabricius from the collection of Mr. Drury, and the drawings of Mr. Jones, from which it is probable Mr. Donovan obtained this figure, and from which alone the French Entomologists are acquainted with the species. I possess the late Mr. Haworth’s specimens of P. Mutius, which together with the remainder of that gentleman’s collection of Papilionide, were compared with Mr. Jones’s drawings, and which are labelled “ P. Astyanax?” the mark of doubt being probably added from the difference in the tail. The P. Astyanax of the earlier works of Fabricius, is a totally different insect, and a native of America.

Clerk, Cramer, and Drury, have each given a delineation of it, the latter of whom names it Papilio Lynceus; but it is almost superfluous to add, that it is beyond dispute the Papilio Idea of Linneus. Our specimens are from Amboyna, and are represented on the common Indian Yellow Jasmine.” Although it is evident that this figure of Donovan’s represents the true Linnean Papiho Idea, that figured by Drury is a distinct species, for which the name of Idea lyncea must be retamed, Dr. Horsfield has figured another species, from Java, under the name of Idea Gaura, (Lep.

Jamaica, and Florida, are given as its true habitats by Boisduval, and New York is added in the Encyclopédie Méthodique. M. Boisduval’s grounds for substituting his own generic name, Rhodocera, in preference to that of Dr. Leach, are quite untenable; Dr. Leach’s name having a long priority over that of Latreille, employed for Noctua, Libatrix, which had also been previously named Scoliopteryx by Germar, which name Stephens has retained. I have been compelled, however, slightly to alter Dr. Leach’s name, to render it more in accordance with its Greek derivatives. PERS: J De Plate XXVIL. fig. 2. Species.

There appears to have been two errors committed respecting this insect. In the first place, it is evidently very closely allied to the orange-tipped butterfly of our country, (Anthocaris Cardamines); the palpi, as represented in this figure, are fictitious, being elongated like those of the genus Libythea, which induced M. Godart to place it in that genus, in the appendix to his article on the butterflies in the Encyclopédie Méthodique. In the second place, instead of being an inhabitant of the East Indies, as stated by Fabricius, (and on his authority introduced into this work,) it is now known to belong to North America: a species agreeing in all G 4.2 LEPIDOPTERA. respects with the Fabrician insect, but with ordinary sized palpi, having been since discovered in North America, and described in the Encyclopédie Méthodique, under the name of Pieris L’ Herminieri.

The caterpillar of this very distinct species, according to Dr. Horsfield, is very common in the eastern part of Java upon the Cassia fistula and obtusifolia. It is extremely abundant, particularly in the early part of the rainy season, after the renewal of the foliage of these plants. It is green, with minute black tubercles arranged in transverse series, and with a lateral yellow line above the legs. The chrysalis is boat-shaped, with the head pointed, but not so much elevated as some other species of this genus. The last three species are represented on Dolichos hgnosus.

The chrysalis is elongated, with the head bifid, and of a green colour. It appears to be a very variable species, as the Papilio Agatha and Merione of Fabricius, P. Laothoe of Herbst, and P. Ariadne of Cramer, are referred to it in the Encyclopédie Méthodique. NYMPHALIS ? PHEGEA. Plate XX XI, fig. 1. Specres. Nympaaris?

(larva et pupa.) Fabricius described this insect from the collection of Dr. Hunter, now belonging to the University of Glasgow, and gave its habitat “ In India.” It is, however, a native of Guiana, in South America, Stoll having reared it from the caterpillar state in that country. The caterpillar is black, with short hairs, and a great number of white dots. The chrysalis is short, without angular projections, of a grey colour, and is found suspended by its tail from the twigs of the shrubs upon which the larva had been nourished. In the description given in the Encyclopédie Méthodique, the anal angle of the posterior wings 1s described as being ornamented with four or five small black and white spots, of which no mention is made by Fabricius, nor are they indicated in the accompanying figure.

Fabricius erroneously gave ‘“‘ India” as the habitat of this curious insect, which induced Donovan to introduce it into this work. It is, however, a native of Guiana and Brazil. Its transformations have been observed by Stoll, who has figured the insect in its different states, as above referred to. The caterpillar is dark green, with a black dorsal line and lateral black spots; the head is armed with two short obtuse spines. It feeds only by night, concealing itself by day in a rolled-up leaf; the chrysalis is short and thick, without angular projections. CETHOSIA CYANE. Plate XXXYV. fig. 2.

Ancea and Obrinus, were the sexes of the same species. The caterpillar, according to the first named author, is green, with a lateral line, the head ferrugi- nous, and armed with two branching spines; its back is also armed with shorter spines.

We have ascertained the species from those drawings, collated with the manuscript in the hand-writing of Fabricius, and on this authority give it a place in our selection of Indian insects.” I have hesitated in adopting the opinion of the editors of the Encyclopédie Méthodique, that this is an extraordinary variety of Thecla Vulcanus.

In the Encyclopédie Méthodique this figure, and that of Drury, (vol. 3, pl. 26.) are considered as the Papilio Phaleros of Linnzus. The insect here represented is a male, according to the distinctions given in the Encyclopédie, but it has not the large orbicular brown spot near the middle of the anterior wings, so that it is, perhaps, doubtful whether the P. Phaleros, Linneus, and the P. Chiton, Fabricius, be really identical, as Donovan had suggested. THECLA HERODOTUS. Plate XXXTX. fig. 2. Srecres.

As in our little English “ blues,” (as the species of Polyommatus are called by collectors,) there are many species so very closely allied together, that it is very dificult to settle their specific distinctions, so there appear to be several Indian species so nearly related to Pol. Parrhasius, that it is only by precisely following the particular description of that species given by Fabricius, (and which I have embodied in the above definition,) that we can avoid confusion. The species was known to Fabricius, through the drawings of Mr. Jones, and the collection of Mr. Drury, to both of which Donovan had access, so that we may adopt his figures as the real re- presentatives of the Fabrician insect. It is on these grounds that I have attached a mark of doubt to the reference to Dr. Horstield’s Lepidoptera Javanica. Donovan has, however, fallen into the strange mistake of considering the larger individual with blue wings as the female, and the smaller brown one as the male, whereas, as in the common English “ blues,” the opposite is the case. 70 LEPIDOPTERA.

Had Fabricius been describing Dr. Be Paice : ce saat shield y msect, he would have said “strigis duabus submarginalibus punctorum - ae e aga eee : nigrorum, instead of “ nigr opunctatis,’? which implies a general scattering of dots over the wings; moreover Dr. Horsfield’s insect exhibits no trace of the “arcubus e ” ® oreke fuscis,” described by Fabricius, fal LEPIDOPTERA, ERYCINA ATHEMON. g.

This insect is exceedingly interesting, with reference to the general classification L It was, by Fabricius, regarded as a true Papilio, and cer- tainly the head, palpi, antenne, legs, &c. clearly prove the correctness of this affinity. In the Encyclopédie Méthodique, however, it was considered as an Erycina, doubtless from its small size, and its apparent resemblance to some of the long-tailed species, Donovan also asserted its greater affinity Mr. Swainson next proved it to belong to the family Papilionide, by his figures of the various parts in detail; but, from too eagerly 74 LEPIDOPTERA. following out his peculiar theories, he gave it as a subgenus of the genus Urania, which name he changed to Leilus, (considering its type to be the Papilio Leilus of Linnzus,) on the ground that the name Urania had been employed in Botany, which is certainly the case; but as the genus of plants ought to retain its previous name Ravenala, the name of Urania is not inapplicable to a genus of Lepidoptera. But Leptocircus ought clearly not to be regarded as belonging to the same group as Leilus, Orontes, and Rhipheus, together with Patroclus, Lunus, and Empedocles, which decidedly belong thereto, although omitted by Mr. Swainson. The veins of the wings of Leptocircus are decidedly Papilionideous, and have no resemblance whatever to those of Urania. There is it is true some analogy in the form of the posterior wings, but, I presume, no real relation can be supported on such a character, and I can discover no other to give it a relation either with Urania, or Erycina. In the male of this insect, the pale band crossing the wings is of a greenish white, but in the female it is transparent white in the anterior, and white in the posterior wings. The species was described by Fabricius from a specimen in the collection of Sir J. Banks. It is become sufficiently common. HESPERIA PROPERTIUS. Plate XLVII. fig. 2. Famity. HeEsprrip. Genus.

The emargina- tion of the posterior margin of the fore wings in this figure, is also noticed by Fabricius under Dioscorez, and is probably a sexual character. EREBUS HIEROGLYPHICUS.

Punctatum; these are the only Indian Myrmeleons hitherto ascertained; to the Entomologist they are equally in- teresting as new and unfigured species, but M. Pardalis is much superior in beauty to the other. The characteristic distinction of M. Punctatum, is the alternate black and white specks, or interrupted dashes in the reticulations of the wings. M. Pardalis is 87 NEUROPTERA. reticulated also with delicate brownish nerves, its general colour a fine yellow elegantly barred with transverse streaks of brown; it is from the coast of Caromandal The natural history of the Myrmeleon-larva is curious, and has been traced in some of the Huropean kinds by Reaumur, Roesel, and others, particularly in the M. Formica-Leo of Geoffroy ; this creature, among other peculiarities, is furnished in the front with a large pair of forceps, with which it takes its prey. It forms circular cavities in the sand, and concealing itself in the centre with only the forceps above the surface, catches the weaker or unwary insects that come within the verge of its cell. Ordr.

This species must not be confounded with the Chrysis fasciata of Fabricius, a 88 HYMENOPTERA. South American species, for which it will be convenient to retain the specific name of C. fasciata, (especially as it is now impossible to decide the priority of the employment of the name fasciata between Fabricius or Donovan, both having been published in the year 1804.)

A variety of the same 89 HYMENOPTERA. species is found in New Holland.” It is most probable that the Australasian spe- cimens constitute a distinct but very closely allied species. The Stilbum princeps of G. R. Gray, figured in Griffith’s Animal Kingdom, Insects, p/. 77, from the collection of the Rev. F. W.

Donovan appears to have been in doubt as to the propriety of considering this very common Chinese insect as identical with the south of Kurope X. violacea, Tinneus, with which it has hitherto been confounded. It is, however, much more elongated than that species, and is distinguished by the white nose of the female, whence I have proposed for it the specific name of X. nasalis. Orders DIPTERA. Linneus.

The appearance of this curious insect is peculiarly striking. Nothing can be more singular than the disposition of the eyes, which are situated at the extremity of two long immoveable pedicles arising from the head, most exactly in that part which in other insects bears the antenns. In this particular the Diopsis differs not only from other insects of the kindred genera, but also from all the other kinds we are acquainted with. Some few of the Cancri, &c. have indeed the eyes placed at the extremity of elongated pedicles, as is, for example, instanced in the Cancer angu- latus, yet these are obviously dissimilar in construction, for they are moveable at the base, and may be directed towards any object, at the will of the animal, with the utmost facility ; but to accomplish this, the motion of the pedicle in the Diopsis must be necessarily accompanied by that of the head, or even of the whole body. The eyes of the latter are notwithstanding so conveniently stationed at the globular extremity of the pedicles, as to embrace a far more comprehensive range of sight than is usual with the generality of insects. To the inexperienced entomologist, the Diopsis would rather seem to be furnished with remarkable horns, and to be destitute of eyes, although the latter are so very conspicuous when they are pointed out; it is, on the contrary, the true horns, or antenne, that are so minute as to be most likely to escape attention, for each of these consists only of a single setaceous hair, or bristle, seated on a very small tubercle just beneath the eye. It has been previously intimated, in the observations on the genus Paussus, that the first account of the Diopsis was inserted in a small tract published by Linnzeus, at Upsal, in 1775. From this we learn, that both the Diopsis and the Paussus were found by Andreas Dahl, among a parcel of insects in the possession of Dr. Fothergill, of London, by whom they were sent to Linneus. These consisted chiefly of insects collected in North America and Guinea, but the habitat, either of the Paussus, or the Diopsis in particular, it is very certain was by no means exactly known. _Puessly notwithstanding describes the D. ichneumonea, upon this ambiguous authority only, as a native of Cayenne, and after him Gmelin notes the same insect from South America, and Guinea, perhaps with as little reason. Latreille tells us it is from the coast of Angola, on the information of Perrin, a zealous naturalist of Bordeaux. Donovan’s specimens of the insects here figured, and which he says are most assuredly the Diopsis ichneumonea of Linnzeus, were brought from Bengal, where they O4 DIPTERA. were discovered by Mr. Fichtel, who, he adds, has thus established the habitat of this singular creature beyond dispute. Linneus, to whom only an individual species of Diopsis was known, as usual with him under such circumstances, does not assign to it any specific character. Donovan states that he was acquainted with another species of this genus, @ native of Africa, in the collection of T. Marsham, Esq. which rendered a deviation from his example excusable, although the latter was at the time undescribed. Since the preceding observations by Donovan was written, great additions have been made to this curious genus. Fabricius, like Donovan, adopted the Linnean specific name ichneumonea, but confounded under that name two species distinct from each other, and from the original species. Iiger added another species, D. nigra. Dalman described three new African species ; Weidemann another, which he named in honour of Dalman; and Gray another, D. Sykesii, in Griffith’s Animal Kingdom. More recently, in the seventeenth volume of the Transactions of the Linnewan Society, I have published a monograph upon the genus, in which I have described thirty-one species, giving coloured figures of the greater portion. All of these species, (with the exception of D. brevicornis of Say, which belongs to a dis- tinct subgenus,) are natives of the old world, inhabiting Guinea, Sierra Leone, Senegal, the Cape of Good Hope, Arabia, and the Hast Indies. In this monograph I have endeavoured to prove, that Guinea, or the adjacent parts of Western Africa, is the true locality of D. ichneumonia; whilst Donovan’s species, which belongs to a distinct section of the genus with the spot on the wings terminal, (and not merely a sub-apical fascia, as in D. ichneumonia,) I have given as a distinct species, under the name of D. Indica. eX IIE Jato) AU OO IN DOS, Tn this Index the names employed both in the present and former editions are introduced, in order to render the refer- ences which have been made by writers to the former edition available.
