 PREFACE. 
 
 THE objects that should be kept in view in preparing a Catalogue of 
 Lepidoptera are two in number, both of the greatest possible import- 
 ance. The first is that each species should have a distinctive name by which 
 it can be recognised now, and by which all that has been written about it can 
 be rightly attributed to it. The second object should be to arrange these 
 names in such order, that as far as possible, each species will be surrounded 
 by those to which it is most closely allied. Briefly, the objects should be 
 Correct Nomenclature and Natural Arrangement. 
 
 It has, unfortunately, happened that many species have been described by 
 more than one writer, and different names given by each. It has also 
 happened that the same name has been given by different writers to distinct 
 species. It has thus become necessary for Entomologists to know what 
 species have been described by various writers, and what names have been 
 bestowed upon them, before their past history can be correctly followed. 
 Hence the importance of what are called Synonymic lists or catalogues, in 
 which all the names that have ever been given to the species are placed in 
 chronological order, with the references to the works in which such names are 
 used. In such a list or catalogue the oldest name stands first, and there is 
 a well understood rule among naturalists, called " The Law of Priority," that 
 such oldest name shall be that by which the species is known. Before it can 
 be decided which is the oldest name, it is necessary to ascertain that the dif- 
 ferent authors really meant that particular species, and therefore their figure 
 or description must be examined. To do this is not only a work of very 
 great labour, and requiring great knowledge of different languages, but it 
 also needs an amount of discrimination and judgment that are not the lot of 
 many, and that few possess in equal degree. There has thus arisen a wide 
 diversity of opinion as to the authority that should be given to the works of 
 different authors, and a consequent diversity as to the names by which the 
 
IV. 
 
 various species should be known. While each admitted that " The Law of 
 Priority " was always binding, they denied its application in particular cases 
 for various reasons. Insufficient descriptions, bad figures, or other like 
 objections are enough for the rejection of any name; but when one rejects 
 what another accepts, we are landed at once in a maze of doubt and difficulty, 
 that is troublesome enough even to those that understand it, while to begin- 
 ners it is so perplexing that it is more likely to deter than to encourage. 
 Even this is not the worst, for those who have prepared the various synony- 
 mic catalogues have modified their views very considerably between the diff- 
 erent editions of their works. Doubleday's second edition of his Synonymic 
 List of British Lepidoptera is widely different from the first, both in nomen- 
 clature and arrangement. Staudingers Catalogue published in 1871 differs 
 very much from that of the first edition. Guenee, in the introduction to his 
 " Noctuelites," gave a list of the authors whose nomenclature he rejected and 
 his reasons for doing so. Others have accepted some of the nomenclature 
 thus rejected, and in turn have rejected others. All this has been done with 
 a view to the perfection of our lists, but it has only helped to increase the 
 confusion. From all this only one deliverance can be looked for. It is no 
 use an individual, particularly one unknown in the entomological world, 
 attempting to produce a catalogue that will be satisfactory to every one. The 
 leading Societies of the various countries where Entomology is largely fol- 
 lowed, must arrange for the preparation of one, which shall be finally binding 
 on every one, and whose nomenclature shall be subject to no further altera- 
 tion. For this we must wait and hope. In the meantime, the following list 
 of British species is submitted as an attempt to unravel the tangle and assist 
 beginners in this country. It contains 
 
 1. The name of each species in ordinary use in Britain and the authority 
 
 for it. 
 
 2. The name or names that have been preferred by different writers, 
 
 and the authority. 
 
 3. The date at which each name was given, when there are more than one. 
 
 4. The names given to varieties and the authority for them. 
 
 5. A brief description of the difference between such variety and the type. 
 
 No synonymy is given further than the above. The degree of authority to 
 be attached to each catalogue is open to diversity of opinion just as in all else 
 connected with nomenclature. The greater part of the changes recently made 
 by the German authors, are owing to the acceptance by them of Hufna- 
 gel's names, which are rejected by all other writers. They are to be found 
 in the second, third, and fourth volumes of the " Berlinisches Magazin, &c," 
 
V. 
 
 published in 1766-7 and 9. If these names were still rejected, comparatively 
 few alterations would be made. Doubleday's list having had almost universal 
 acceptance in this country, we have not hitherto felt the difficulties of nomen- 
 clature much. Now that the more scientific of the two leading magazines 
 adopts one nomenclature, and the other another, we are worse than any 
 one, for the capture of the same species would, in numberless cases, be an- 
 nounced under different names in these two journals, and only experts 
 would know what was meant. 
 
 It is hoped the following list will serve as a key to the mystery. The 
 authorities quoted are, for Butterflies only, Kirb/s Synonymic Catalogue of 
 Rhopalocera; and generally, Doubleda/s Synonymic List (2nd edition) and the 
 supplement to it ; Staudinger's " Catalog der Lepidopteren des Europseischen 
 Faunengebiets," edition 1871 ; " Catalogue methodique des Lepidopteres 
 d'Europe," by M. Berce, 1861. The names of Stainton's Manual are also 
 occasionally quoted. In the very few cases where Mr. South has not used 
 the German nomenclature of Staudinger, his name is also added. There can 
 thus be seen at one glance what names are used in each country. 
 
 The arrangement adopted is mainly that of Dr. Boisduval and M. Guenee, 
 which seems more natural than that of Doubleday ; and is certainly superior 
 to the German method, where sometimes a dozen or more incongruous genera 
 are mixed in one heterogeneous mass.
