Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from On a Collection of Sierra Leone Lepidoptera The Lepidoptera which are catalogued and described in the following pages were collected by me during a tour of service of thirteen months' duration at Sierra Leone, West Africa, in the years 1891-92. With few exceptions their habitat was the rocky peninsula of Sierra Leone, which has an area of some twenty square miles. It is very hilly, some of the hills rising to a height of from 3000 to 4000 feet. The immediately surrounding country is flat and swampy, and, so far as I had an opportunity of judging, is poor in Lepidoptera. Owing probably to its elevation, Sierra Leone is very rich in representatives of the genus Charaxes. In the limited time at my disposal I obtained eighteen species - nineteen, including Pallet, Charaxes) varanes - with both sexes in fifteen of these. In consequence of my having lost the notes I made at the time on the natural habits of the insects collected, the observations which I am enabled to make must necessarily be brief, fragmentary, and quoted from memory. They may be divided roughly into two classes: the first comprising those which have remained in aristocratic solitude, and are essentially sylvan in their habits; the second class, those which seem to prefer the vicinity of man and his habitations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Lepidoptera of Ceylon At the commencement of the year 1844, Sir William H. Gregory, then Governor of Ceylon, having had his attention called by Dr. Thwaites, the Director of the Botanical Garden at Peradeniya, to the accuracy and beauty of the botanical drawings made by his native draftsman, Mr. W. de Alwis, permission was given, on the suggestion of Dr. Thwaites, that this draftsman might be engaged in copying from nature the Lepidopterous Insects of the Island, in which subject Dr. Thwaites took great interest. Under his supervision these drawings were made, from specimens chiefly collected by him. Mr. Geo. de Alwis, brother of Mr. W., also having shown much talent, Sir Wm. Gregory employed him at his own expense in copying the drawings already made and in preparing fresh ones, and it is from these copies, which were lent for the purpose by Sir Wm. Gregory, as well as from natural specimens, that the figures on the plates of this work are taken. This series of drawings of the Lepidopterous Insects of Ceylon - representing about 360 species, of which about 250 are figured in their various stages of larva, pupa, and imago - was placed in the Authors hands, together with the collection of specimens formed by Sir Wm. Gregory, for the purpose of being arranged and named. This collection of drawings was subsequently exhibited at a Meeting of the Entomological Society of London, held March 6th, 1878, and was considered to be such a valuable contribution to Eastern Entomology that the following resolution was proposed by the President in the chair and passed, viz.: "It was hoped that an application to the Ceylon Government for their publication would be successful."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Micro-Lepidoptera The examination of Mr. Gooch's collection has been very instructive; not only has it been found to contain many new and interesting forms, but the necessary study of the work already done has made me acquainted with the typical species, upon which no less than eleven genera have been founded, although four of these cannot rightly be retained. It is much to be regretted that many of Mr. Gooch's specimens are not in sufficiently good condition to warrant their description, and that for this reason it has been necessary to pass over much new material which might otherwise have been made avail able to increase our very limited acquaintance with these local forms.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Insecta Britannica: Lepidoptera; Tineina Of the ten plates, which have been carefully executed by Mr. Lving, eight illustrate the generic characters, one the various forms of the larvae, and one the perfect insects of several of the most important genera (especially representing those which have any peculiarity in their posture when in repose). It will be found by those who study this volume, that, even with the help of the descriptions and the plates, it will be a matter of considerable difficulty to name with certainty many species; those who do not associate with other entomologists are not aware to how great an extent the comparison of specimens with named collections is carried. To all who meet with any difficulties of this nature I offer my services and if they apply to me by letter or personally, their wants shall be immediately attended to. In order to be readily accessible without any previous appointment, I have followed the example of the late Mr. Stephens, and my collections are thrown open for inspection, etc., every lednesday evening, to any gentleman, upon the presentation of his card.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Catalogue of Eastern and Australian Lepidoptera Heterocera, Vol. 1: In the Collection of the Oxford University Museum At the request of Professor Westwood, and under the orders and sanction of the Delegates of the Press, this work is being produced as a students' handbook to all the Eastern Moths in the Oxford University Museum, including chiefly the Walkerian types of the moths collected by Wallace in the Malay Archipelago, which for many years have been lost sight of and forgotten for want of a catalogue of reference. The Oxford University Museum collection of moths is very largely a collection of the types of Hope, Saunders, Walker, and Moore, many of the type specimens being unique and of great scientific value. All Walker's types mentioned in his Catalogue of Heterocerous Lepidoptera in the British Museum as 'in coll. Saunders' should be in the Oxford Museum, as also the types of all the species therein mentioned by him as described in Trans. Ent. Soc, Lond., 3rd ser. vol. i. The types of all the species mentioned in Walker's catalogue which have a given locality preceding the lettered localties showing that they are in the British Museum should also be in the Oxford Museum.
