12. Phyciodes pratensis Behr. 



Mr. Williams reports this species from the Glen Alpine re- 

 gion. 



13. Phyciodes montana Behr. 



Quite as abundant as Melitaea ivhitneyii, and flying with it. 

 This species resembles mylitta, but is larger. The dark mark- 

 ings are heavier in the male than those of mylitta, and in the 

 female there is more yellow, and all the markings are more 

 blurred than in the same sex of mylitta. 



14. Grapta zephyrus Edw. 



This species is not particularly common, but occurs from 

 May until late August, and at all elevations. 



15. Vanessa californica Bdv. 



A rather common species in August below 8,500 feet. I 

 noted an occasional specimen during July, and several in May, 

 which latter had probably hibernated. Mr. Williams took the 

 larvae on a species of Ceanothus. 



16. Vanessa antiopa L. 



Rather common in the Canadian Zone, appearing in May. 

 Larvae comon on willows. 



17. Vanessa milberti Godt. 



Not common, but occurring all summer and at all elevations. 

 I found the gregarious larvae on nettle ( Urtica gracilis) . 



18. Pyrameis huntera F. 



Occasional, July and August, Deer Park, from 6,200 to 8,500 

 feet elevation. 



19. Pyrameis cardui L. 



Fairly common from May until August at the same altitudes 

 as the preceding. Larvae on Carduus. 



20. Pyrameis caryae Hbn. 



Rather abundant all summer up to at least 9,000 feet. I 

 found the larvae on Sidalcca spicata Greene, a malvaceous 

 plant.
