Genus Chlorippe 
(3) Chlorippe montis, Edwards, Plate XXII, Fig. 7, <3 ; Fig. 
8, ? (The Mountain Emperor). 
Butterfly. — Very closely allied to G. antonia in the style and 
location of the markings, but tinted with pale ashen-gray on the 
upper side of the wings, and not yellowish-fulvous as in the last- 
named species. Expanse, $ , 1.75 inch; $, 2.15 inches. 
The early stages are unknown. 
Montis occurs in Arizona and Colorado, and by some writers 
is regarded as a varietal form of antonia , in which opinion they 
may be correct. 
(4) Chlorippe leilia, Edwards, Plate XXIII, Fig. 11, $ (Leilia). 
Butterfly .— Like antonia , this species has two extra-median 
eye-spots on the primaries, and thus may be distinguished from 
celtis . From antonia it may be separated by its larger size and 
the deeper reddish-brown color of the upper surfaces. Expanse, 
2.10-2.50 inches. 
Early Stages. —Unknown. 
So far we have received this butterfly only from Arizona. 
(5) Chlorippe alicia, Plate XXIII, Fig. 9, $ ; Fig. 10, $ 
(Alicia). 
Butterfly. —Very bright fawn at the base of the wings, shading 
into pale buff outwardly. There is but one eye-spot on the pri¬ 
maries. The six eye-spots on the secondaries are black and very 
conspicuous. The marginal bands are darker and heavier than 
in any other species of the genus. Expanse, <3, 2.00 inches; 
$, 2.50 inches. 
The early stages are only partially known. 
Alicia ranges through the Gulf States from Florida to 
Texas. 
(6) Chlorippe clyton, Boisduval and Leconte, Plate XXIII, 
Fig. 5, <3 ; Fig. 6, ? ; Plate III, Fig. 20, larva; Plate IV, Figs. 
15-17, chrysalis (The Tawny Emperor). 
Butterfly , 6 .—The fore wings without an extra-median eye- 
spot, and the secondaries broadly obscured with dark brown or 
blackish, especially on the outer borders, so that the eye-spots 
are scarcely, if at all, visible. 
9.—Much larger and paler in color than the male, the eye- 
spots on the secondaries conspicuous. Expanse, <3 , 2.00 inches; 
$, 2.50-2.65 inches. 
Early Stages. —The life-history has been carefully worked out,
