4iMJ. Elysius dryas (Cram.). 



Under this name two distinct species have been confused. A smaller, browner 

 species with a whitish spot as stigma at end of cell, and generally in the J with a 

 narrow fuscous border to hiudwing. This is the true dri/as. A larger, blacker 

 species with the stigma either almost absent or else large and surrounded with an 

 irregular patch of white dots, and the hindwing with a liroad fuscous border to the 

 hindwing in the S often occupying more than half the wing. This is my omissus 

 (vide infra).
