The present list is based on a large number of these Butterflies obtained in the Solomon Islands by M r . C. M . Woodford, and now in Messrs. Godman and Salvin's collection, to which are added some few collected by Mr. Gervase Mathew, R.N. The large majority of the species are peculiar to these islands, whilst some few, such as Lyccenesthes emolus, Godt., Zizera gaika, Trimen, and Tarucus plinius, Fabr., have, as is well known, a very extended range. Forty-two species are here enumerated, 21 of which I have described as new. The type-specimens are all in Messrs. Godman and Salvin's collection. HYPOCHRYSOPS, Feld. HYPOCHRYSOPS CRATEVAS.
