R.M.] [114] [The following additional species of the subfamily _Macroglossinæ_ have been figured by Butler:--_Lophura Hyas_, Walk. (_loc. cit._ Pl. XC., Figs. 1 and 2), Hong-Kong, Silhet, and Java. The larva is apparently figured in two stages, the younger being red-brown with oblique white stripes, and the head and three front segments green. The larger specimen is green, mottled with red-brown, and no oblique stripes. In both figures the subdorsal line is indicated. The whole colouring is very suggestive of protective resemblance. _Hemaris Hylas_, Linn., from China, Japan, Ceylon, India, Australia, and Africa (_loc. cit._ Pl. XC., Fig. 4). The upper part of the body is light blue, and the lower part green, the two areas being separated by a white subdorsal line bordered above with brown. The dorsal line is feebly represented. _Macroglossa Belis_, Cram., N. India (_loc. cit._ Pl. XC., Fig. 6), is figured with the ground-colour deep indigo; a conspicuous white subdorsal, and a yellow spiracular line is present; on the side of each segment, between the two lines mentioned, there is a large red spot with a yellow nucleus (? eye-spots), the spots decreasing in size towards the head and tail; these probably confer upon this species some special protective advantage. _Macroglossa Pyrrhosticta_, Butler, China and Japan (_loc. cit._ Pl. XC., Fig. 8), is greenish-white with dorsal and subdorsal lines, and seven dark oblique stripes along the sides, below the subdorsal line. Of the foregoing species _Hemaris Hyas_ appears to be in the same phyletic stage as _M. Stellatarum_ and _M. Croatica_, &c., whilst _M. Pyrrhosticta_ is probably, together with _M. Corythus_ and _M. Gilia_, in another and more advanced stage, which is also passed through by _Lophura Hyas_ in the course of its ontogenetic development. This last species (adult) and _M. Belis_ may represent phyletic stages still further advanced. _Caliomma Pluto_, Walk., of which the caterpillar is figured by Burmeister (_loc. cit._ Pl. XIII., Fig. 1), appears to be a case of special protective resemblance to a twig or branch of its food-plant. Figured also by Chavannes; Bull. Soc. Vadoise des Sci. Nat., Dec. 6th 1854.
