Show 1 900.] ON BUTTERFLIES FROM HAINAN. 605 3. O n the Butterflies collected by the late Mr. John Whitehead in the Interior of the Island of Hainan. By PHILIP C R O W L E Y , F.L.S., F.Z.S. [Received March 29, 1900.] (Plate XXXV.) In this collection, which was the last made by the late Mr. John Whitehead, there are representatives of 108 species, of which 8 are new, and many others have not been previously recorded from this island. I therefore append a list of those received. I can find only two previous lists of Butterflies from Hainan-that of Mr. F. Moore, in P. Z. S. 1878, and that of the Eev. W . F. Holland, Trans. Amer. Ent. Soc. 1887. I have marked with M. or H. all the species mentioned in these lists. NYMPHALID.E. EUPLO3IN^;. TIRUMALA LIMNIACE Cram. 2 • M. & H. SALATURA GENUTIA Cram, d, 2 • H.
