Excerpt from The Rhopalocera of Java: Hesperidae
In the preliminary observations prefixed to my study on the Java Pieridae, I expressed my intention to enter into a more particular discussion of various biological facts or phenomena - though, in a general way, these also concern the Rhopalocera or even the Lepidoptera - when treating of the families in which these facts or phenomena stand out more clearly, either on account of their frequent occurrence, Or because they are very obvious or particularly suitable for Observations in them. Indeed, by thus uniting such discussions with the treatment of certain families, I can _at the same time indicate more easily the examples with which my considerations in this respect are concerned and mostly illustrate them with figures, without which such considerations always remain obscure for many a one. Thus, in connection with the treatment of the Pieridae I discussed especially the subject of colour-evolution and the pretended tropical seasonal influences.
