The Butterflies constituting this group, are nearly restricted in their geographic range to the temperate regions of the old and the new world. Their principal metropolis appears to be in Europe; about twelve species having been described as natives of that continent. Of these, five are found in Britain; one of which, E. Edusa, has a very wide range; we have seen specimens from the mountains of Nepal, and we possess others, collected by our friend Mr. Burchell, in Southern Africa. C. Philodice hitherto unfigured, is the only species of a strictly typical character discovered in North America: we have several specimens from New York, where it appears not uncommon: the middle figure represents the female.
In illustrating this group, we feel called up to notice in a particular manner, the courtesy of Dr. Horsfield in adopting our manuscript name, after it had remained so many years unpublished, that the circumstance, on our part, had been totally forgotten. To us the mere credit of having pointed out a group, flattering as it might once have been, is now trifling: but the high principles which prompted the unequivocal thanks of Dr. Horsfield, must ever demand our respect. The passage, indeed, so honourable to its writer, singularly contrasts with the ambiguous acknowledgements, tendered to us from other quarter.

Although not particularly striking in its plumage, this is one of the most interesting birds, to the ornithologist, which has yet been gleaned from the little known regions of Mexico. Closely allied, by its short and broad bill to the Flycatchers, it is principally distinguished from them by the absence of those bristles round the mouth, which almost invariably belong to purely insectivorous birds. Its very short, robust, and feathered tarsi, the profile of the bill, construction of the wing, and even the colouring of the plumage, all remind us of the Ceblepyrinæ or Catterpillar-catchers, and point to that group as containing its true affinities: a group, however, which is in such confusion, that we venture not to hazard any speculations on the precise station of this curious genus.
If the authors of the Planches Coloriées, will consult the Philosophical Magazine for July 1827, (one of the oldest and best of our scientific Journals), they will find that this, and most of the birds from Mexico, which they are now describing as new, were long ago named and characterized by us. Our list, indeed, of all those brought over by Mr. Bullock, was printed with the catalogue, in 1824, when one of the Authors was himself in England, and viewed the collection.

Am. canaliculata. Lam. Syst. 6, 178.
In our former series we represented this species as it is usually seen; our present figures were drawn from a very uncommon variety, received by Mrs. Mawe from Brazil, in which not the slightest appearance of the external transverse bands are apparent. The specimen now forms a part of the valuable and extensive Museum of the Natural History Society of Manchester; a collection which we believe is superior to that of any provincial town in the kingdom. It is gratifying to us to inform the scientific student, that its contents will be thrown open to his enquiries with a promptitude and liberality, which he will in vain look for at some of the Zoological Institutions of the metropolis.
Our friend Henry Parker, Esq. of Liverpool, who while prosecuting his botanical researches in Demerara, was not unmindful of conchology, favoured us with an interesting series of specimens from that river, clearly shewing that the A. fasciata and canaliculata of Lamarck are varieties of one species; or rather, that there are specimens of fasciata which perfectly agree with his description of canaliculata. We further learn from Mr. Parker, that the inhabitant of this, and of other species, are a favourite food with the crafty Herons, who use their bill as a spear to take them from the bottom; in some places, the banks of the river are strewed with empty shells, all perforated by these birds.

WOMEN WARRIORS
by H. P.
It WAS the Indian woman's place to prepare food and clothing, lug firewood and water and till the soil. And yet she was not backward in standing by her husband's side and fighting to the death. In no tribe of American Indians is there any record of women regularly serving as warriors. In the exigence of surprize attacks women, white as well as red, would fight. Mrs. Bozarth, at Dunkard's Creek, West Virginia, in 1779, killed three Indians with an ax within three minutes, after her cabin was attacked and her husband and several others, men and children, had been killed. Yet there are instances of Indian women playing the warrior's part. Timberlake, writing on Cherokee “War Women,” says “the reader will not be a little surprized to find the story of the Amazons not so great a fable as we imagine, many of the Indian women being famous in war as powerful in council.” Nevertheless the woman warrior was the exception, never the rule.
In 1676 Magnus, a woman chief of the Narraganset, fought with the English near Warwick, R. I., and was killed after her capture. It is not supposed that she was accustomed to bear arms, although probably skilled in their use. When Nathaniel Bacon stormed the Powhatan fort near present Richmond, Virginia, in August 1676, and the blood of the massacred defenders gave the name to Bloody Run, there is no doubt but what the Powhatan women conducted themselves bravely. But as in the majority of cases these were warriors from necessity.
When Rutherford's expedition fought the Cherokees in the Nantahala mountains in 1776, nineteen Americans fell before the Indians could be dislodged. One warrior remained behind a tree and was shot. It proved to be a woman, painted and armed for warrior. “A wound in the thigh had prevented her escape with the men. Here is an example of a woman deliberately taking the war-path and playing a man's part. Another woman during the Revolutionary war killed the slayer of her husband and rallied the demoralized Cherokee and led them to victory. After that she was allowed to carry gun and tomahawk and participate in the war-dance.

MARIUS Cinna
MARIUS Cinna.
Family Nymphalidæ. (Stirps. 3? Horsf.)
Generic Character.
Larva and pupa unknown.
Perfect insect. Wings Papilioniform, caudal appendages long, acute. Palpi porrect, approximating, and meeting at their tips so as to form an acute cone: the whole covered with compact scales. Anterior feet small, slender, imperfect, the tarsal joints? concealed by long hairs: club of the antennæ terminal, sub-fuciform and cylindric. Body short, thick, robust.
Type, Papilio Marius. Auct.
Specific Character.
Wings above brown, with two unequal white bands; beneath white, with narrow fulvous bands; basal angle of the posterior wings with an orange spot, ocellated with black.
Papilio Cinna. Cramer Vol. I. pl. 100. f. 8.
Cramer describes this elegant Butterfly as a native of Surinam, and our own specimens were received from the same country. All the species of this group that have yet fallen under our inspection, are natives of South America. Their flight is high, powerful and rapid: the predominating colour on the upper surface of their wings is brown, and on the under white.
It is the misfortune of not understanding the typical structure, and the principles which regulate its variation, in higher groups, that in defining the characters of a lesser, we can form no just idea of its relative value: whether, in short, we should consider it a genus or a sub genus, or whether it is typical, aberrant, or osculent. This, however, is but a temporary evil; and will only continue until an insight is gained into higher combinations, by first placing together kindred species under one common name. If this be done heedfully, such a group must be natural, whatever opinions may be entertained in the first instance, as to its proper denomination.

MACROPTERYX longipennis. Long winged crested Swift.
MACROPTERYX longipennis.
Javanese crested Swallow.
Family Hirundinidæ.
Generic Character.
Bill (fig. 1.2.) small, entire, base depressed and straight, the outer half of the culmen suddenly curved; lower mandible straight, nostrils large, oblong: Tarsi short, without scales; anterior toes of nearly equal length; (fig. 3.4.) claws strong; hinder toe long, not versatile, the claw very short and thick. Nob.
Specific Character.
Above obscure glossy green; throat, breast, and lower part of the back light grey; belly, spot on the scapulars, and line over the eye, white; ears rufous; front with an incumbent crest.
Hirundo Klecho, Horsfield, Linn. Trans, xiii. p. 143, female?
Cypselus longipennis. Pl. Col. Pl. 83, f. 1?
To Dr. Horsfield, one of the most successful and scientific investigators of Oriental Zoology, we are indebted for the first discovery, in Java, of this charming bird. Of its economy nothing is as yet known; but the uncommon length of its wings, indicate its possessing the utmost rapidity of flight. Another, and a much larger species, is among the Ornithological treasures discovered in the Eastern Archipelago by my estimable friend M. Lesson, and which he has already communicated to the public. A third is the Cypselus Comatus, of M. M. Temminck and Laugier.
The peculiar structure of these birds oblige us to consider them as forming a natural group, intermediate between the typical Swifts, and the Swallows. To the first they are allied by their strong scansorial feet; to the latter by the length and fixed position of the hind toe, and the depression of the bill.
We suppose that the figure of the Hirondille longipennes, in the Planches Coloriées, (pl. 83), is intended to represent this species; if so, it is incorrect, both in drawing, proportion, colouring, and detail.

MITRANÆ Pl. 4. Mitra episcopalis.
MITRA Episcopalis.
Family Volutidæ.—Sub-Family Mitrianæ.
Generic Character.
Animal——
Shell never turrited or plaited, ovate-fusiform, the base wide, obtuse, and truncated: pillar with 4 plaits: the plaits simple. Outer lip crenulated, or toothed: Aperture at the base effuse, smooth within, and destitute of an internal groove. Nobis.
Types of Form.
1, M. episcopalis. 2, papalis. 3, scabriuscula. 4, Zebra. 5, ferruginea.
Specific Character.
Shell with the spire thickened, and marked by transverse punctured dots: white with crimson spots; inferior spots small and quadrate, the superior large and irregular; pillar 4 plaited.
Voluta vel Mitra episcopalis, Auct. (Lam. Syst. 7. 299.)
We view this elegant, though common shell, as the type of the Lamarkean Mitres, a group we shall hereafter consider as a sub-family. It is common in various parts of the Asiatic Ocean, and sometimes occurs of gigantic size: in its natural state it is covered with a thin olive epidermis.
We regret that the nature of this work will not permit us to do more than furnish the clue, to the natural arrangement of the two typical groups of this family, Voluta and Mitra. The first of these we have, indeed, pledged ourselves to enter upon more fully in Exotic Conchology. But the arrangement of the Volutes is so intimately connected with that of the Mitres, that we scarcely know how to illustrate one, without perpetually adverting to the other.
The two typical groups of the Lamarkian Mitræ we now characterise from their shells; they correspond to those of the typical Volutes; while their internal relations may be learned from the respective types of form here designated. The genera Mitra and Tiara, each present a circular series of affinities, and are united by the fourth type in each group. Even a partial study of this disposition will reveal to the Conchologist a harmony of design, amid the greatest diversity of structure, which he could scarcely have suspected in the mere covering of an animal.
The shells which appear associated with M. episcopalis, in this type of form, are never coronated: the only external sculpture which they in general possess, are delicate rows of minute punctured dots, in the typical examples, as Pertusa, millipora, versicolor, the outer lip is acutely toothed; while in the aberrant species, Melaniana, tessellata, scutulata, &c. this part is smooth.

PETROICA bicolor. Black & white Robin.
PETROICA bicolor.
Black and White Robin.
Family Sylviadæ. Sub-family Saxicolinæ. (See Northern Zoology, Vol. 2.)
Generic Character. See No. 8, pl. 36.
Specific Character.
Black and white. Head, throat, back, and tips of the tail glossy raven black: breast, scapular covers, stripe on the wings, and plumage beneath, white: tail slightly forked.
In giving publicity to this new and interesting bird, we feel particular pleasure in expressing our thanks to Allen Cunningham, Esq., His Majesty's Botanist, in New South Wales, by whom it was there discovered. Although devoted to a science already so much benefited by his researches, this enthusiastic Traveller found some leasure for Ornithology, and has lately favoured us with a large collection of skins, prepared during one of his inland journeys; with a request that they may be made public: among other highly curious forms, the present bird is conspicuous. It was found in the open forest country, North of Liverpool Plains.
When once we are so fortunate as to discover the natural station of any being, we may be convinced that every circumstance regarding its structure, habits, or even colour, are employed by Nature to typify its relations to other beings; and that until most of these can be explained, there is good reason to suspect the accuracy of our views on its true affinities. Possessing all the essential characteristics of Petroica, our bird exhibits in the bill, feet, and tail, an immediate affinity to Sialia arctica: while it is clothed in the pure white, and glossy black plumage, which nature afterwards employs to designate the typical group of Gryllivora, (North. Zool.) at the opposite point of the circle of Saxicolinæ. This remarkable analogy is extended to the bill, the point of which is longer and more incurved, than in any of the immediate affinities of our bird: its close relation to the old world Saxicolæ, is too obvious to need explanation.

MARGINELLA Pl. 1 1. oblonga. 2. guttata.
MARGINELLA oblonga.
Family Volutidæ. Genus Marginella. Lam. Sys. 7. p. 354.
Sub-Genus Volutella. Nob.
Shell oval-ventricose: Spire concealed: outer lip generally smooth; base of the pillar with four to five oblique plaits: aperture smooth within.
Type, Marginella bullata. Lam.
Specific Character.
Shell oblong, rather gibbous round the middle, fawn coloured, with two obsolete bands: spire concealed: outer lip and summit marked by orange spots: pillar 4 plaited.
A species not hitherto described; its shape is unusually oblong, and the spire is quite concealed: We are unacquainted with its locality. The perpendicular line expresses the natural size.
In Voluta and Mitra, the two typical groups of this family, the variations of form are so striking, and the species so numerous, that we readily assent to the plan, proposed by others, of further dividing them into genera: but in the aberrant group, containing Oliva, Ancillaria, and Marginella, the forms are less diversified, and the species fewer; the minor divisions may therefore, for the present, be termed sub-genera. The approximation of Marginella to Voluta has frequently been stated. In M. bullata we have a miniature melon Volute, while M. faba is a no less obvious representation of V. magnifica. Hence these forms appear typical. Yet M. persicula and lineata cannot well be placed with either, as their characters seem to indicate a direct analogy to Conohelix among the Mitres. As to Volvaria, we concur with other writers, in thinking that the French Conchologists have erroniously blended that genus with Marginella.
MARGINELLA guttata.
Oval, spire concealed, covered with transverse oval spots margined with white, somewhat ocellate, and disposed longitudinally; pillar 4 plaited.
We could give no correct idea of this very pretty shell, without enlarging the figures; the natural size is indicated by the horizontal line. Our specimen is the only one we have yet seen, nor do we know its habitat.

CHÆTURA macroptera Longwinged Swift
CHÆTURA macroptera.
Long-winged Swift.
Family Hirundinidæ.
Generic Character.
Bill entire, the sides much compressed, the culmen arched. The lower mandible recurved at the tip. Wings very long. Tail scansorial, the extremity of the shafts naked, and acute. Tarsi naked, the three anterior toes and claws nearly equal; hind toe not versatile. Nob.
Type. Chætura pelasgia. Stevens.
Specific Character.
Brown: wings and tail glossed with greenish blue; back grey-white: chin and under tail covers snowy; tail even.
Ob. Tail 3½ in. longer than the wings, the two first quills longest and equal.
For an inspection of this new and imposing species, we have to thank Mr. Ward, an Animal preserver of considerable talent. We do not find it mentioned in any Ornithological work we possess, and our library is not small: but with so many publications continually issuing from the continental press, we shall feel no surprise at discovering it has already been published.
This and the Hirundo albicollis, (first named by M. Vieillot) are two of the largest species yet discovered, of a very singular group of Swifts; wherein the tail feathers are spined, and even more rigid than those of the Woodpeckers: by this structure the birds can remain for a considerable time in the most perpendicular situations. The expanded tail thus acts as a powerful support, which is further increased by the size and strength of the claws, much larger than those of ordinary Swallows. There are several species, most of which are natives of America.
The direct analogy which this group bears to the typical scansorial Birds, joined to the general superiority of flight which the Swift possesses over the Swallow, leads us to suspect this may prove to be the typical group of the Fissirostres; an order in which Nature, in her wish to develope the greatest powers of flight, appears to neglect all those laws which she afterwards so rigidly adheres to: We intend in another work, to enter on this interesting subject more fully.
Our figure is in strict conformity with the scale on the plate, which is that of an inch.
