Sinopsis

Excerpt from On Some Insect Deformities, Vol. 2

The rare and less known paper of Mr. C. Majoli, on a precocious development of Bombyx Mom, and the notice of two deformities of Coleoptera, seemed to me not out of place in this paper.

Excerpt from On Some Insect Deformities, Vol. 2

In arranging the Lepidoptera of the collection, I found, among the insects brought home from Brazil by Professor L. Agassiz, a specimen of Morpho Eurylochus with the head of the caterpillar. The excellent condition of the large specimen induced me to compare all published observations of a similar deformity. These are few, and scattered in transactions not easily accessible. Therefore I concluded to reprint the full text for the two oldest known, and to give copies of the figures, together with those of M. Eurylochus. In the hope of having information about other similar cases, I published a provisional paper in the Stettin Ent. Zeit. (1872), p.388, and I am indebted to Professor Zeller of Stettin, Professor Westwood of Oxford, Mr. MLachlan of London, and Dr. J.L. Leconte of Philadelphia, for additional information.
