was an exceptional case for me, as I could not induce the 

 larvae to feed. The species is double-brooded in eastern Penn- 

 sylvania and southern New Jersey. 



17. Pamphila viator. 



Secured a number of eggs of this species from Mr. H. E. 

 Wilford, of Batavia, New York. The eggs were laid about 

 July the seventh. The egg is grayish in color ; finely reticu- 

 lated, and somewhat wider than high, with apex but slightly 

 flattened. The eggs hatched on July the sixteenth. The larva 

 of this Pamphila is entirely different from the larvae of any 

 other Pamphila that I have ever seen. Twenty-four hours after 

 hatching the larvae were of a grayish color, and covered with 

 numerous dark-colored, spine-like hairs. The head and collar 

 are light yellow and covered with numerous dark brown spots. 

 First moult occurred on the twenty-fifth of July. Twenty-four 

 hours after moulting the larvae were of a brown color, other- 

 wise the larvae are the same as before.
