LIST OF LEPIDOPTERA TAKEN AT SUDBURY, ONT. 



BY JOHN D. EVANS, TRENTON. 



This list embraces all the species of diurnals captured, viz., 51, and 

 those of the nocturnals, 125, but of the latter possibly as many more are as 

 yet undetermined. To Mr. Jas. Fletcher for the butterflies, and i\Ir. J. B. 

 Smith and Rev. Geo. D. Hulst for the nocturnals, I am indebted for their 

 kindness in making determinations ; to the first named I am also deeply 

 grateful for many kindnesses extended at various times and for counsel 

 and advice. 



Among the diurnals special mention may be made of Erebia dis- 

 coidalis, Kirby. Upon one occasion only (12th May, 1889) has this 

 species been captured in this district, wlien the writer took five 

 specimens, 4 c? 's and i ? , all in good condition* and Dr. Peters, at the 

 same time and place, took two or three specimens, but the sexes were 

 not ascertained. 



During the season of 1886, Colias interior was quite common and 

 C. philodice very rare, but in subsequent seasons the latter became the 

 more numerous and the former very scarce : —
