500 $a"The Trustees of the British Museum having declined to proceed with my Catalogue of the Lycænidæ, I [i.e. Hewitson] have thought it best to continue these illustrations as a separate work .... To make this new work as complete as it is now in my power to do, I have incorporated all the species of Lycænidæ mentioned in the British Museum catalogue, making a few corrections, and introducing the new species of Amblypodia in their proper places." --Preface, p. [iii] of v. 1.
