From lot No. 1, fourteen days, came:--

1 female between _Marcellus_ and _Telamonides_.

2 females, _Marcellus_.

These 2 _Marcellus_ were pale coloured, the light parts a dirty white;

the submarginal lunules on hind wings were only two in number and

small; at the anal angle was one large and one small red spot; the

frontal hairs were very short. The first, or intermediate female, was

also pale black, but the light parts were more green and less sordid;

there were 3 large lunules; the anal red spot was double and connected,

as in _Telamonides_; the frontal hairs short, as in _Marcellus_. These

are the most salient points for comparing the several forms of _Ajax_.

In nature, there is much difference in shape between _Marcellus_ and

_Telamonides_, still more between _Marcellus_ and _Walshii_; and the

latter may be distinguished from the other winter forms by the white

tips of the tails. It is also smaller, and the anal spot is larger,

with a broad white edging.
