of Coalburgh, West Va. They can be easily referred to at any time in 

 my collection. 



Although Mr. Payne devoted much of his time to the collection of 

 insects, I regret to say that nothing absolutely new to our present list of 

 diurnals of N. America has come to hand. With the exception of one 

 curious green $ of Colias Hecla, Lef, Mr. Edwards had seen all the 

 species before. As this % was the only one out of many that had this 

 peculiar appearance, it may perhaps turn out to be something new — there 

 being a great similarity between all the others. 



The Chionobas vary greatly in size and appearance of apparently the 

 same species — Chionobas Taygeta and Chionobas Cratnbis particularly. 

 In Chionobas Setnidea the shades of gray in some are quite light in color, 

 and in others run almost into black. 



The following is a complete list of the butterflies taken : 



1. Colias Hecla, Lef. 



2. " Nastes, Bd. 



3. Argynnis Polaris, Bd. 



4. " Freya, Thunb. 



5. Chionobas Semidea, Say. 



6. " Crambis, Frey 



7. " Taygeta, Hiib. 



8. Lycaena Aquilo, Bd. 



I hope at no distant date to be able to give a list of the moths, and as 

 far as possible of the Hymenoptera and Diptera. Strange to say, no 

 Coleoptera were seen at all.

On pages 1 21-12 2 the generic term Lepisesia is twice written wrongly, 

 '' Lipisesia." To my statement with regard to the food plants of the 

 Smerinthince, must be added that several unocellated genera feed on 

 forest trees, such as poplar, Hnden, oak, etc. I have taken our geminatus
