314 ENTOMOLOGICAL NEWS. [Jul>' 'lO 



Alpine, in the Canadian Zone in July. I have one female from 

 Deer Park, July 15, 1909, elevation 6,200 feet, which has a very 

 striking appearance on the upper surface, the ground color be- 

 ing broken by distinct whitish spots, corresponding to the me- 

 dian row of spots beneath. 



48. Lycaena enoptes Bdv. 



Fairly common at all altitudes, particularly on rocky peaks 

 about Eriogonum umbellatum Torr., which, I think, is its larval 

 food plant. Occurs from June to August, and probably Sep- 

 tember. In the males, the width of the marginal band varies 

 considerably, as does the appearance of the orange stripe on the 

 secondaries of the females. 



49. Lycaena shasta Edw. 



Mr. Williams took several males at 8,000 feet, near Glen Al- 

 pine. 



50. Lycaena acmon Db. & Hew. 



Quite common at all altitudes; June to August. It varies 

 somewhat here as elsewhere. The food plant of the larvae is 

 Eriogonum umbellatum Torr. 



51. Lycaena anna Edw. 



Rather common in the canyons, July and August. 



52. Lycaena pseudargiolus var. piasus Bdv. 



Common in the canyons. It appears as soon as the snow 

 melts, and is in evidence until the middle of July or later. 



53. Neophasia menapia Feld. 



I saw this butterfly only at Deer Park (6,500 feet), and this is 

 possibly its southern limit, as it has not been reported south of 

 here. It appears about the middle of August, and may become 

 abundant later. I took a pupal shell attached to a leaf of Finns 

 jeffreyi. There were also the remains of several parasitized 

 larvae on the same tree. 



54. Pieris sisymbri Bdv. 



Flies from early June until August, and occurs oftenest above 

 the Canadian Zone. I took several larvae on Arabis glabra 

 Bruh.
