D81318A52BB43CD4D513EEAC1F3056EC.taxon	discussion	This is a fine species, collected by Mr. Hope both at Florence and Naples. It approaches very much in its appearance to L. variegatus, but is a great deal larger. The specimens obtained from Naples are usually of a much lighter colour, but in other respects they agree precisely with those from Florence.	en	G.
