It is hardly necessary to state that the scientific -interest of the subjects described, and the attention bestowed upon the -plates, have progressively increased, as the work has approached its -termination. The contents of this series may now be divided into three -equal portions, so that the BIRDS, the INSECTS, and the SHELLS, will form -distinct and uniform volumes, unconnected, except in the general title, -with each other. - -As complete sets of the first series have now become very scarce, new -editions of the deficient parts are in rapid progress; and the whole will -then be divided, as above, into three portions. - -It is but justice to Mr. G. Bayfield,[1] that the author should here -express his satisfaction at the skill and care with which he has executed -the colouring of the plates, both of this work, and of every other in which -his services have been engaged. - -In answer to several correspondents who have requested to know what book we -can recommend, as giving a general and popular introduction to the -_natural_ arrangement of animals, we are obliged to confess that amid -countless volumes of anecdotes, compilations, and methods, no such work has -ever been undertaken. With the intention of supplying this deficiency, we -have devoted the greatest portion of the last five years to an Encyclopedia -of Zoology; wherein the science will be placed under a new and striking -light; no less instructive to the general reader, than interesting to the -learned. In another year, we trust this work will be before the public. To -_that_ volume we must consequently refer the readers of _this_, whenever -they wish to understand the full scope and influence of those novelties in -natural arrangment, which are but slightly glanced at in the following -descriptions. - -As more than usual care is necessary in the binding of these volumes, it -may be as well to mention that we have particularly instructed Mr. Betts, -of Compton Street, Brunswick Square, on this subject. - - _Tittenhanger Green, - 4th March, 1833._ - -* * * * * * - - - -[Illustration: TRICHOGLOSSUS _Swainsonii_. - -_Swainson's Green-lory._] - - -TRICHOGLOSSUS Swainsoni. - -_Swainson's, or Blue-bellied Lory._ - ----- - -Family Psittacidae.

Mr. Caley, whose notes we now follow, says it a -bird remarkable for docility and attachment to some people, although a -perfect scold to others. When young they are caught by the natives, but -from the loss of their favourite food seldom survive in confinement. An -individual, kept by Mr. Caley, on being shewn the coloured drawing of a -native plant, tried to suck the flowers, and it even made the same attempt -with a piece of cotton furniture. Its scientific history we have already -given elsewhere. - -We have received more than usual pleasure at seeing our name affixed to -this charming bird, and in clearing up its history. (_Ill. of Orn. vol. 3. -p. iii._) As a child we well remember our unwearied delight at seeing its -figure in _White's Voyage_. As a collector we have preserved a series of -nearly twenty specimens, and as a naturalist our name is no longer excluded -from the Ornithological Nomenclature of New Holland. It is indeed somewhat -curious, that while we were giving information to one of the writers in the -_Lin. Trans_. upon the subjects of his paper, he should have studiously -witheld from us the only public acknowledgement, for such assistance, it -was in his power to make. - -* * * * * * - - - -[Illustration: PROTESILAUS _Leilus_.] - - -PROTESILAUS Leilus, - -_Protesilaus Butterfly_. - ----- - -Genus Amphrisius, _Sw._ Sub-genus Protesilaus, _Sw._ - -SUB-GENERIC CHARACTERS. - - Wings trigonal, acute, yellow with black transverse bands; the inferior - lengthened, narrowed, with two long acute tails; antennae short, the club - thick, slightly compressed, but solid, and convex all round; front very - hairy; _Larva_ covered with sharp spines. _Pupa_ braced, but suspended - downwards. - -Type, Pap.

Cramer, pl. 202. f. a. b._ - ----- - -From the resemblance which this insect bears to the rare British species, -named by collectors the scarce Swallow-tail, (_Papilio Podalirius_,) it is -generally called the Brazilian Swallow-tail. We advert to this -circumstance, trivial as it may sound to scientific ears, first because it -is one of the many proofs in which the nomenclature of the vulgar conveys -greater information than that of the professor: and secondly, because these -very names, in numberless instances, imply a perception of natural -analogies, which, without the labour of philosophic research, suggest -themselves to unscientific observers. In the present instance, these facts -may be verified in the most unquestionable manner. According to our views, -_Protesilaus_ not only represents one of the primary groups of the -Lepidoptera, but also typifies the Fissirostral birds, of which the -swallows are the most pre-eminent. - -Madam Merian's valuable work on the Insects of Surinam, has furnished us -with a figure of the larva; which, unlike that of the European -Swallow-tails, is covered with spines: the chrysalis also departs from the -usual type of the family, in having the head directed downwards. These -facts we have verified by an inspection of the original drawings, of M. -Merian, now deposited in the British Museum. These are all important -variations in structure, which can only be explained by the natural system. - -* * * * * * - - - -[Illustration: CRESSIDA _Heliconides_] - - -CRESSIDA Heliconides - -_Cressida Butterfly_. - ----- - -Sub-Fam.

No. 145._ - ----- - -For a long time, the only museum in Europe which could boast of this -butterfly, was that of Sir Joseph Banks; who found it in Van Deimans Land, -during his celebrated scientific voyage with Captain Cook. Fabricius, the -most eminent entomologist of that day, described the species from this -specimen: which, with the whole of the Banksian Cabinet, was presented by -its learned and munificent possessor to the Linnaean Society of London, -where it still exists. The only published figure is that of Donovans, which -is much too small, and is otherwise faulty. The species is still very rare -in collections; our own, a fine pair, were received from Van Diemans Land. - -Although unacquainted with the larva, and pupa state of this species, -nature has stamped the perfect insect with the image of that group she -intends it to represent. Its long, narrow, anterior wings, almost -transparent, immediately reminds even the unpractised entomologist of the -Heliconian butterflys; while the analysis of the genus _Papilio_, confirms -this idea, by shewing that _Cressida_ is the Heliconian type. We scarcely -need remind the student of the natural system that if our theory be -correct, this representation, under one form or other, will be found to -pervade every group of _Lepidoptera_. In all such as we have yet -investigated, this opinion has been fully verified. - -* * * * * * - - - -[Illustration: PAPILIO _Memnon_.] - - -PAPILIO Memnon, - -_Memnon Butterfly_. - ----- - -Fam.

Auct. Ency. Meth. 1. p. 29. No. 10. Cramer, pl. - 91. f. c._ - ----- - -Although of sombre colours, this butterfly is imposing in its size, and -highly interesting. It is, in fact, that form which is _pre-eminently -typical_ of the whole of the Latriellian _Papilionidae_. It seems to be -common throughout India and particularly so in Java, from whence we possess -several specimens. Dr. Horsfield's elaborate work has furnished us with -figures of the caterpillar and chrysalis. - -In now first defining some of the natural groups of the modern Genus -_Papilio_, it may be as well to state that we give the results of minute -analysis, the details of which we hope to lay before the public on a future -occasion. In regard to the nomenclature, we have adopted the following -principles, suggested to us by a scientific friend of no ordinary -authority, as tending to facilitate recollection, without altering well -known specific names. Each genus or sub-genus will be named after that -species which is its peculiar type; and the new specific name of this -species will imply one of its supposed natural analogies. Thus the -sub-genus _Protesilaus_, derives its name from the typical species, while -the specific name, now proposed of _Leilus_, points out the analogy of the -group to _Urania_ Fab. The sub-genus we now define, as being in our -estimation, pre-eminently typical, retains the name of the genus. It seems -also a geographic group, since all the species yet discovered belong to the -old world. - -* * * * * * - - - -[Illustration: CARACOLLA _acutissima._ - -_Two-toothed Disk-Snail._] - - -CARACOLLA acutissima, - -_Two-Toothed Disk Snail_. - ----- - -Class Mollusca.

Mol. pl. 6. f. 1._ - ----- - -It is seldom we can deliniate more than the covering of testacious animals, -particularly where the species are natives of tropical countries. In the -present instance we owe this power to the singular fact of this snail -having survived a voyage from Jamaica, and peered out upon an English sun. -It is now near forty years ago since an intelligent correspondent of our -honoured father sent him from Jamaica, a box of land shells: they were -carefully packed in moist decayed wood, and enclosed the living animals. -The season was summer and the voyage short; the box was immediately opened, -and by placing the shells in luke-warm water, the animals of every one -slowly emerged from their shells. Of their ultimate fate we know not: but -that celebrated artist and entomologist, the late Mr. Lewin, then a guest -in the house, executed highly finished drawings upon vellum of each -species; and from one of these our present figures are faithfully copied. -At the request of our friend Dr. Leach, a copy was also made by some one -and transmitted to Baron de Ferussac, for his great work upon Land shell, -where it will be found engraved at pl. 58. fig. 2. M. Guerin has re-copied -this latter figure, but as both are inaccurate, without any fault of these -gentlemen, (who never saw the original drawing of Lewin) we have now -represented it correctly. - -* * * * * * - - - -[Illustration: PRINIA _familiaris_ - -_Indian Wren warbler._] - - -PRINIA familiaris, - -_Indian Wren-warbler_. - ----- - -Family, Sylviadae.

And although nature, in her -boundless profusion, has so distributed her productions that even the -little "Kitty Wren" may in vain be looked for beyond the confines of -Europe, its representative in the East is no less neat, active, and -familiar to the habitations of man. The _Prinia familiaris_, observes Dr. -Horsfield (whose politeness enables us to figure the bird), is abundant in -many parts of Java, near villages and gardens, in the confines of which, -among trees and shrubs, it builds its nest. Sprightly and active in all its -motions, it sports among the branches in short and rapid flights, and has -received its native name from its enlivening and pleasant notes. Our figure -is the size of life, and to avoid a tedious description, all the details -have been accurately measured. - -We must refer the scientific Ornithologist, for our exposition of the -natural affinities of this group, to _Northern Zoology, vol. 2, p. 200_.

It seems subject to much variation in point of colour, -but we have strong suspicions that some of the varieties are distinct -species. The richness of the black resembles Genoa velvet, while that of -the yellow may be compared to glossy satin. All the larger species of the -group are Oriental, but we suspect America is not without typical examples, -although they are of a much smaller size. The species however, even with -these additions, are so few, that the sub-types of the group cannot be -accurately made out. - -As this seems to be the pre-eminent type of the genus, we preserve to it -the generic name. - -* * * * * * - - - -[Illustration: ACHATINELLA.

It is under the tropical latitudes of the -old world (and chiefly those of Asia), that nature has placed the group of -butterflys which we now, for the first time, characterize. Distinguished, -in the most beautiful manner, by their larva and pupa, they shew, even in -the external appearance of the perfect insect, an unerring distinction, in -the dark stripes between the nerves of the anterior wings. We have indeed, -in the tropics of America, a race of black and crimson butterflys -representing these of India; but they belong to a very different group; and -are known at the first glance by their broader wings, totally destitute of -the stripes just mentioned. - -M.

As -representing _Brachypus_, (North. Zool. 2. 485.) and its analogies, it has -the under tail covers richly coloured. As representing _Leiothryx_ (Il. -490.) it has the same coloured cinereous and silky plumage: as a scansorial -type, it has a conspicuous although an _incumbent_ crest, and a long -ornamented tail. It is a Titmouse among the Tyrants, and is nearly as much -of a _Ceblepyris_ as of a _Tyrannus_. Indeed, when we described the female, -we thought it actually entered the circle of the former, but the laws of -representation has set us right on this point. _Phoenicornis_ is the first -of the _Ceblepyrinae_, as _Philiogonys_ is the last of the _Tyranninae_. -The _females_ of _Phoenicornis_ are clothed in the same slate coloured -plumage, but, as being of a _fissirostral_ type, their mouths are -conspicuously bristled, while those of _Ptiliogonys_ are quite smooth. -Finally, the wings are those of a _Ceblepyris_, but the tail that of a -_Tyrannula!_ - -* * * * * * - - - -[Illustration: PLECOCHEILUS _undulatus_.] - - -PLECOCHEILUS undulatus. - -_Waved Pupa-snail._ - ----- - -Family Pupadae. _Guilding._ Genus Carychium. _Muller._ - -Sub-Gen.

It was -then in the possession of Messrs. Stuchbury, and was nearly the only one, -among very many of the usual orange-mouthed specimens, which came to their -hands. - -We have already intimated that the series of types in this genus, (see pl. -100) besides possessing innumerable analogies in the class _Mollusca_, -exhibits a most singular one with the series of vertebrated animals; four -of which can be traced by comparing them with four of the classes of the -vertebrated circle. Commencing with _Phyllonotus_, we may call them, from -the hideous and repulsive aspect of many of the species, the _Reptile_ -type, as the name given to one (_Murex scorpio_), sufficiently intimates. -In the tooth-like spines of _Murex tenuispinosus_ we see some resemblance -to the teeth of quadrupeds: the _Murex haustellum_ has been well compared -to the head of a snipe, while in the fin shaped varices of _Murex -pinnatus_, we have a representation of the _fish_. If the analogy between -_Centronotus_ and the _Amphibia_ cannot be traced, it is because the latter -has so few forms; but the Hedgehogs, which represent the _Amphibia_ in the -circle of Quadrupeds, are again represented under the form of a shell, in -the sub-genus _Centronotus_.

Every entomologist, upon looking to the perfect -insect, will immediately be struck with its resemblance to the long-winged -Heliconian Butterflys, and to the genus _Euploea_, which is the Erycinian -type of that family. Now this resemblance, which hardly requires pointing -out, is a perfectly natural analogy; and is confirmed in the most -remarkable manner by the caterpillar, which puts on that peculiar form -which distinguishes _Euploea_. The species in short, in every stage, -exemplifies the truth of that fundamental law of nature which we have -elsewhere so fully illustrated, viz. "that every _natural_ group, contains -representations of ALL others in the same class," following each other -precisely in the same series: thus establishing a truth which has long been -suspected, but not before demonstrated, that the laws of variation are -precisely the same in every group throughout the animal kingdom.

Long. 150-3/4 E. We must again express -our public thanks to this intelligent and liberal naturalist for the -ornithological specimens then collected. Among these were two skins of the -bird in question; but as the mere addition of a new species to our already -overwhelming list would be of little importance to the philosophy of the -science, we have hitherto refrained from publishing it. In truth, the -natural affinities of this extraordinary Cockatoo-Parrakeet called for a -much deeper investigation of the whole family than it had yet received, nor -are we ashamed to confess that nearly five years elapsed before we could -partially accomplish this, with any thing like satisfactory results. But we -regret not the delay, since it is obvious that the illustration of such an -apparently anomalous form as this, is infinitely more useful to science -than the specification, _in a few lines_, of a hundred new species, or even -of as many new genera, unaccompanied by analytical or comparative results. -The time, in fact, is now gone by, when such crude additions to -ornithological nomenclature, possess any claim to permanent interest, or -carry with them any authority: they encumber rather than advance science, -by keeping up the already overwhelming stock of undigested materials. Mr. -Lear has recently given beautiful figures of this species, but under the -peculiarly inappropriate name of _Palaeornis Novae-hollandiae_.

In the infinite diversity which pervades the works of -"Him who made us," two things have obviously been intended: one, the -manifestation of His power in the creation of the individual: the other, an -illustration of some important truth connected with the spiritual welfare -of mankind. The first is manifest, and speaks to our senses: the second is -emblematical, and calls for an exertion of those reasoning faculties with -which the Creator, for such purposes, aided by those helps he has promised, -has given to us. In accordance with this latter assumption, both divines -and Naturalists concur in considering Nature as a book of Emblems, "where -one thing represents another." That this theory, resting heretofore on -general belief, is capable of mathematic definition, we have elsewhere -largely demonstrated, (North. Zool.). And if, as regards one division of -animated nature the theory is correct, it follows that it will be equally -manifested in _all_ other portions of the animal world, when they are -sufficiently investigated. Hence it is that remote resemblances between -objects, widely different in themselves, can be explained: hence the -analogy which the _Glires_ bears to the Hedgehogs, and to the -_Ceblepyrinae_; and hence the resemblance between this shell and the -Porcupines; an analogy the more singular, as it extends even to the black -and white colour of the spines. - -* * * * * * - - - -[Illustration: JASIA _Australis_.] - - -JASIA Australis, - -_Australian Jasia-Butterfly._ - ----- - -Family Nymphalidae.

The -geographic range of this group is thus proved to extend from the South of -Europe to Australia, but it is entirely unknown in the new world. - -The family of _Nymphalidae_ is the sub-typical group of the diurnal -Lepidoptera, forming our tribe _Papiliones_.

It is in all probability -the same as that figured by Cramer; particularly as his specimens came from -the same locality. Even a superficial comparison of this figure with those -on our two last plates, will shew the error of Fabricius and others, in -classing them all under the same name. We have represented the species in -that attitude which is assumed by _L.

We cannot otherwise account for this, but by -remembering that the influence of fashion is universal, and that she is -always followed by the majority. This exclusive devotion however, to one -order, is highly detrimental to the study of the natural system; or with so -many profound Entomologists who have gone before us, it would not have been -left for us to make known the fact, that the sub-family _Papilionae_, -represents the sub-family _Harpalinae_, (Harpalidae, _Auct._) And that this -analogy is not only demonstrable by the peculiar construction of their -_tibiae_, but by the parallel relations and by the circular affinities of -the COLEOPTERA and the LEPIDOPTERA. - -* * * * * * - - - -[Illustration: LEILUS _Orientalis_. _Sw._] - - -LEILUS Orientalis. - -_Oriental Emerald Butterfly._ - ----- - -SPECIFIC CHARACTER. - - _Posterior wings six tailed; anal angle with a large flame-coloured - space, varied with black spots; tails unequal, whiteish._ - - Papilio Rhipheus. _Cramer, Vol. 2, page 193, pl. 385, fig. A. B._ - ----- - -That the natural affinities of this superb and highly interesting group of -insects should be no longer a matter of doubt, we are induced to deviate, -for the first time, from our usual practice. On this and the next plate we -have copied two figures of insects which we have never seen, for the -purpose of bringing them immediately before the eye of the entomologist, -and of clearing up some remarkable facts concerning them. - -The first of these is taken from Cramer, who calls it _Pap. Rhipheus_, from -an unaccountable idea that it was the same species as one figured by Drury, -under that name. He imagines that this latter figure was made from a -mutilated specimen, in which the tails had been broken off, and that _his_, -consequently, represented the insect in its perfect state. Every succeeding -writer, so far as we can discover, has taken up this idea, without the -precaution of investigating its correctness. Now it follows that if the two -species were the same, the posterior wings of _Cramer's_, would be spotted -like those of _Drury's_, yet they are essentially different: a piece of -paper, put over to hide the tails in our present figure, which may then be -compared with the next, will at once explain our meaning: but setting this -aside, Cramer expressly asserts that his insect has the Antennae "_sans -boutons_", and "_comme filiformes_", and very justly compares it with our -_Leilus Surinamensis_, "_mas plus encore_," with _Pap. Orontes_, L. -(_Orontes Noctuides_, Sw.) the immediate type to which it leads. - -How totally inapplicable this account is to Drury's insect, will be -presently shewn. Cramer has most correctly given the immediate affinities -of this insect. We have no space to state our reasons for considering it, -at present, as a true _Leilus_; although with six tails, instead of _two_. -It may _possibly_, however, be the fifth, or natatorial type, which in our -synopsis of the genus at Pl. 125, we have not ventured to indicate. We have -never seen, or even heard of a specimen in modern cabinets; that figured by -Cramer, was found at Chandernagor, in Bengal, and was in the rich -collection of M.

Ins. 2, p. 40, pl. 23, 1. 2. - ----- - -If the imagination was taxed to invent, or to concentrate into one figure -all that was splendid, lovely, or rare in the insect world, Nature would -far exceed the poor invention of man by the production of this incomparably -splendid creature; its rarity also is so great, that but one specimen has -ever been seen: this was brought from China, and in 1773, belonged to a -Captain May, of Hammersmith: with whom it was seen by Drury, and drawn by -Harris. It is not however, on this account only that we have been induced -to copy this figure, but because its illustration will clear up one of the -most intricate and perplexing questions, that has hitherto impeded the -natural arrangement of the Linnaen _Papiliones_, and even of the whole -order of Lepidoptera. - -The error of Cramer, regarding _Rhipheus_ has already been rectified. It -will now be demonstrated that not only are the two insects distinct as -_species_, but that they actually belong to different _genera_. Cramer's -being a _Urania_ of Fabricius and Latrielle, while Drury's is a _Papilio_ -of the same authors. This is proved by the figures; and confirmed by the -following words of Drury, "_The antennae are black, and knobbed at their -extremities_," in other words, clavate; while the palpi, as expressed in -the figure, are so small as not to project beyond the head, where they lie -hid in the frontal hairs: this also being a typical distinction of the -Latrellian _Papiliones_. The figures in Drury's work were all drawn and -engraved by Moses Harris, well known as one of the most accurate artists -that ever lived: as a remarkable proof of this, we find that he has not -failed to delineate that peculiar nuration of the anterior wings, which -belongs only to the types of _Leilus_. A closer affinity therefore between -_Papilio_ and _Leilus_ cannot possibly be imagined: while its remarkably -hairy front, points out its analogy, as an aberrant type in its own genus, -to _Chlorisses_, among insects, and _Dasycephala_ among birds. So true it -is that the natural system "illuminates with a flood of light" every -supposed anomaly, and reconciles facts apparently the most inexplicable. - -* * * * * * - - - -[Illustration: LYCAENA _Dispar_.] - - -LYCAENA dispar. - -_The Large British Copper._ - ----- - -Family Erycinidae.

Pl. - 3 - ----- - -As considerable misconception appears to exist regarding the type of the -tenuirostral or vermiform family of the Diurnal Lepidoptera, we shall -endeavour to illustrate this subject. Our concluding number is accordingly -devoted to the genus _Polyommatus_ of Latrielle, and its subordinate types -or sub-genera. These compose, what we have elsewhere defined, a natural and -perfect group; (_North. Zool. 2, 288_) inasmuch as it has been tested by -the analogies, and conformed by the representations, which it bears to -innumerable others, both in the Annulose and vertebrated circles. According -to this analysis, both _Lycaena_ and _Polyommatus_, strictly so termed, -instead of being types either of families or sub-families, are of one and -the same genus: which genus, moreover, is but the portion of the aberrant -group of the _Theclinae_. The typical forms of the genus _Erycina_, -exclusively confined to Tropical America, constitute, in fact, the -pre-eminent perfection of the family in question. - -As _Lycaena_ represents the _Nymphalidae_, or sub-typical family of the -Diurnal Butterflys, so is it the sub-typical form of the genus -_Polyommatus_. Its geographic range is wide, being extended to the -temperate latitudes of both hemispheres. The largest British species is -that now figured, from the identical specimens mentioned by Lewin. - -* * * * * * - - - -[Illustration: POLYOMMATUS _Cassius_.] - - -POLYOMMATUS Cassius. - -_Brazilian Blue._ - ----- - -Family Erycinidae.

(the female) _Cramer, pl. 23, fig. C. D._ - ----- - -We have elsewhere pointed out, as one of the peculiar distinctions of forms -and groups pre-eminently typical, that their geographic distribution is -invariably wide, and generally universal; and that this is one of the -reasons why certain forms are found both in Europe, America, India, and -Australia. This was said of Birds, and the remark is even more applicable -when we look to insects. We accordingly find, that the typical species of -the genus now under consideration, not only spread themselves over all -Europe and Africa, but extend to the Indian islands on one side, and over -the whole of America on the other, without offering more than a sectional -variation of character. It is uncertain, however, whether any species occur -in Australia; for the European type seems to be represented there by the -sub-genus _Erina_. The genus, _collectively_, is a rasorial type, -representing the family _Satyridae_ among the _Papiliones_,--_Parnassius_ -among the _Papilionidae_,--and the _Paconidae_ among Birds. - -Pol. Cassius is one of the most common species of Brazil, where we found it -frequenting similar situations, and possessing the same habits, as the -ordinary Blues of England. The analysis bestowed upon this group, convinces -us that _Pithecops, H._ is but a section of this sub-genus. The upper -figure represents the male, the lower the female: both are enlarged. The -connecting species between _Polyommatus_ and _Lycaena_ are _Helle_, Hub. -_Lametia_, and _Boeticus_. - -* * * * * * - - - -[Illustration: ERINA _pulchella_.] - - -ERINA pulchella. - -_Buff-spotted Blue._ - ----- - -Family, Ericinidae.

Brit. Nost. - ----- - -The passage from _Polyommatus_ to the type now before us, is distinctly -marked by the section (for under that rank we may still retain it), named -_Pithecops_; the palpi of these latter being both hairy, like the typical -_Polyommatus_, and squamose, as in _Erina_: the posterior wings of both are -also much of the same shape. By these blended characters Nature gently -glides into the form now under consideration, which is the satyrian or -_rasorial_ type of the genus; representing the _Satyridae_, the -_Hipparchianae_, &c. and which supplies the place of _Polyommatus_, -strictly so termed, on the Australian continent. We have already before us -six species from that country; five of which are typical, but the sixth, -the _L. ignita_ of our friend Dr. Leach (_Zool. Miss. I. pl. 60_), demands -particular attention. We have elsewhere shewn that all aberrant forms unite -into a circle of their own. Now as _Erina_, _Lucia_, and _Nais_, are the -aberrant forms of the genus _Polyommatus_, so there should be species -either in the first or the last,--that is, in _Erina_ or _Nais_, which -would exemplify this theory in the present instance. We accordingly find it -demonstrated by _Erina ignita_; for that insect, although essentially -belonging to this type, in the characters of the _palpi_ and _antennae_, -nevertheless assumes one of the great distinctions of _Nais_.---_The wings -of the two sexes being different_: the posterior pair in the female are -dentated, while those of the male are completely entire; so that the first -might pass for a _Nais_, and the second for an _Erina_; both sexes further -shew the union of these two types, by having the under surface of their -wings ornamented, as in _Nais_, with silvery spots. Our figures, by the -scale, are somewhat enlarged. We have sent a specimen of _E. pulchella_ to -the British Museum for general reference. - -* * * * * * - - - -[Illustration: LUCIA _limbaria_.] - - -LUCIA limbaria. - -_Brown-winged Blue._ - ----- - -Sub-fam.

Nost. - ----- - -This, which appears the most aberrant type of the genus, immediately -reminds the student of a dark coloured _Erycina_ or a _Phalaena_, both of -which families, as being the Heliconian or Erycinian type of _Polyommatus_, -it truly represents. It is at once known from _Erina_, by its very peculiar -palpi, and by its more lengthened wings. The antennae of three species now -before us, present a remarkable difference. In two of these, the club is -compressed and spatulate, like that of _Erina_; but in the third, here -figured, it has the cylindrical form belonging to _Nais_. Which of these -forms is typical, must at present, be undecided; but there cannot be a -stranger link of connection between _Lucia_ and _Nais_, than the fact of -this species borrowing, as it were, the cylindrical club of the latter. -Without such a link, in short, the series would be imperfect. - -As we cannot satisfactorily determine whether the types here figured of -_Lucia_ and _Erina_ are described in books, we have been compelled to -regard them as unnamed. This, and the two other species we possess, are all -from Australia. On bringing the genus _Polyommatus_ to analogical tests, -the only demonstration of a natural group, we find the sub-genera -representing the families of the Diurnal Lepidoptera, in the following -manner:--1. TYPICAL, Polyommatus, _Papilionidae_.--2. SUB-TYPICAL, Lycaena, -_Nymphalidae_.--3. ABERRANT, Nais-_Hesperidae_, Lucia-_Erycidinae_, and -Erina-_Satyridae_. - -* * * * * * - - - -[Illustration: NAIS _splendens_.] - - -NAIS splendens. - -_Blue-shouldered Copper_. - ----- - -Sub-fam.

Nais. _Cramer, pl. 57, fig. D. E._ - ----- - -In every natural group of the diurnal Lepidoptera which we have analysed, -(and the number is somewhat considerable,) there is always one in which the -posterior wings are more than usually tailed; and this seems to be such a -prevalent form throughout the Vertebrata and the Annulosa, that we believe -it is universal: in other words, that it is one of the PRIMARY TYPES of -Nature. We have consequently termed it the _natatorial_, since it -represents that order of birds, as the Swallow-tailed _Papiliones_ typify -the Swallows. That we should find this form in a group where the chief -character is the roundness and the integrity of the wings, is certainly -astonishing; but it shews that the laws of Nature are as simple, as they -are universal. The absolute union of this sub-genus with _Lycaena_, with -which we commenced the circle, is palpable to the meanest capacity. All the -species we possess, are from Africa and India. As they represent the -_Argynninae_, we accordingly find them ornamented with silver spots. The -species now figured, are probably male and female, and were received from -Africa. - -We have now given the natural types of an Entomological genus; the only one -that has been attempted, since the demonstration of _Phanaeus_ and -_Scarabaeus_. These are but three genera, out of many thousands, which at -present have any other foundation, strictly speaking, than mere opinion. -But the great principles of variation are now discovered, and we must hope -that those naturalists of a higher order, who join acknowledged talent to -matured experience, will follow up the subject. - -* * * * * * - - - -GENERAL INDEX -_OF THE PLATES TO_ -VOL.
