From Fiji I. (Fiji Islands?), Oceania.
"Ins. Philipo 1905": "Ins." might mean "Insula" which is latin for Island. But I cannot find any Island in Fiji whose name is close in spelling to Philipo. Was the specimen collected in 1905?
"Coll. Ing. J. Lorenc": Probably means from the private insect collection of J. Lorenc. "Ing." would be the abreviation of "Inženýr" (Czech/Slovak for Engineer), a common academic title used in Central Europe.
Thanks for any confirmation / correction and guidance.
