red cuneus. From simply having the cuneus red, the form 

 varies in rubescence, until in extreme cases the legs chiefly 

 and the venter entirely are involved. 



The variety hibernates in the adult stage and has been 

 found under bark of birch, sycamore and maple. The food 

 plant, or at least a food plant, is alder (Alnus rugosa), from 

 which at Great Falls, Virginia, nymphs were collected August 

 21. Associated with this Caniptobrochis were C. nebulosus 

 and species of L\(/ns.

While on the subject of Paracalocoris it is worth noting 

 that /'. liiubns (loc. cit., p. 380), described from an elevation 

 of more than 2000 feet near Clayton, Georgia, appears to be 

 a mountain form, as it has subsequently been received from 

 Southern Pines, North Carolina, and from Mt. Tom. Massa- 

 chusetts. 



An Interesting Gynandromorphic Butterfly (Lepid. ; Rhop.). 



Master George F. Pettinos, of Merion, Pennsylvania, has recently 

 captured a gynandromorphic specimen of Papilio turnus. The left 

 hand side of the specimen has the wings normal male, and the right 

 side of the specimen has the wings normal male, and the right side is 

 black female. Mr. W. H. Kdwards in his Butterflies of \orlh 

 .lincrica, Vol. 2, figures a specimen in which the left wings are black 

 female and the right wintrs are yellow female. This is the first 

 specimen I have seen in which the two sides represent the male and 

 female. HENRY SKINNER.
