134.  Papilio anactus (n.s.) P. alis nigro-fuscis, anticis griseo-maculatis, inferis dentatis fascia alba extus dentata lunula media nigra limbique nigri lunulis quinque caeruleis ocellis tot rufis submissis.

Obs.  This fine species is of the middle size, and seems to have a relation both with P. epius and P. machaon.  The vertex is orange-coloured, with a black line in the middle.  The two upper wings are slightly dentated, the lower dentations being marked with white spots.  There are three grey spots in the middle of the superior margin of the wing, of which the largest is the one nearest to the body; on the outside of these are two parallel rows of grey spots, the first range consisting of about nine oblong spots unequal in size, and the outer range of eight smaller, whitish, and round spots.  The white band of the lower wings, which are not tailed, has a black crescent-like spot in the middle; and on the outside, two parallel rows of five spots, the one blue and the other red, The emarginations of these wings are fringed with white.  The underside of this insect is like the upper, except that the colours are more pronounced, and that there are two round white spots on the outside of the white band of the lower wings.

Obs.  This insect is of Godart’s fifth size, and comes very near to his Pieris nina.  The wings are of a fine white colour, particularly the upper.  These have their summit black, and a minute black point, near the middle.  The under wings are without any spots, but are bordered behind by a cinereous thread.  The underside of the upper wings have the costa and summit covered with spots and minute incontinuous lines of a yellowish colour.  The underside of the lower wings are sulphureous, with very fine undulating or rather incontinuous lines of a yellowish colour.

The species has been named by Captain King, after John Wilson Croker, Esquire, M.P., and first secretary to the Admiralty.

138.  Pieris niseia (n.s.) P. alis albis limbo late nigro; anticis macula media nigra limboque albo-trimaculato; posticis subtus nigro-venosis limbi maculis luteo-notatis.

Obs.  This insect comes very near to the P. teutonia of Godart and Donovan, particularly in its underside.  It is, however, smaller than that insect.  The upper wings are white, with a posterior broad black subtriangular border, having two or three white spots at the apex.  These wings have a black spot near their middle, which is also on the underside, but there communicates by a transverse, short, and rather curved, black band, with a black superior edging of the wing.  In other respects the underside of the superior wings is like the upper, except perhaps that it is yellowish at the base.  The lower wings have their upper side white, with a broad black border.  Their underside is strongly veined with black, having the base and the middle of the outer row of white spots in the posterior margin of the wing yellowish.
