[77] [To this group may also be added _Ampelophaga Rubiginosa_, Ménétriés, from China and Japan, the caterpillar of which, having the distinct subdorsal line without any trace of eye-spots, is figured by Butler (_loc. cit._, Pl. XCI., Fig. 4). This author also gives a figure of another species belonging to the subfamily _Chærocampinæ_ (Pl. XC., Fig. 11), viz. _Acosmeryx Anceus_, Cram., from Amboina, Java, Silhet, and S. India; the caterpillar is green, with seven oblique yellow stripes along the sides, and a very conspicuous white subdorsal line with a red border above. As there are no eye-spots, this species may be referred to the present group provisionally, although its general marking is very distinct from that of the _Chærocampa_ group. R.M.] [78] [Eng. ed. Dr. Staudinger has since obtained the caterpillar of _C. Alecto_ from Beyrout; it possesses “a very distinct subdorsal line, and on the fourth segment a beautiful eye-spot, which is repeated with gradual diminution to segments 7-8”.] [79] Figured in “A Catalogue of Lepidopterous Insects in the Museum of the East India Company,” by Thomas Horsfield and Frederick Moore.

XC. and XCI.) appear to belong to the second group--_Chærocampa Japonica_, Boisd., which is figured in two forms, one brown, and the other green. The former has two distinct ocelli on the fourth and fifth segments, and a distinct rudiment on the sixth, whilst the subdorsal line extends from the second eye-spot to the caudal horn, and beneath this line the oblique lateral stripes stand out conspicuously in dark brown on a lighter ground. The ocelli are equally well developed on the fourth and fifth segments in the green variety, the subdorsal line commencing on the sixth segment, and extending to the caudal horn; there is no trace of a third eye-spot, nor are there any oblique lateral stripes; the insect is almost the exact counterpart of _C. Elpenor_ in its fourth stage. (See Fig. 21, Pl. IV.) _Pergesa Mongoliana_, Butl., is brown, without a trace of the subdorsal line except on the three front segments, and with only one large eye-spot on the fourth segment. _Chærocampa Lewisii_, Butl., from Japan, is likewise figured in two forms. The brown variety has the subdorsal line on the three front segments only, distinct ocelli on the fourth and fifth segments, and gradually diminishing rudiments on the remaining segments. The green form appears to be transitional between the present and the third group, as it possesses a distinct, but rudimentary eye-spot on the third segment, besides the fully developed ones on the fourth and fifth, and very conspicuous, but gradually decreasing repetitions of rudimentary ocelli on segments 6-10. To this group may be added _Chærocampa Aristor_, Boisd., the caterpillar of which is figured by Burmeister (Lép. Rép.
