The presence in the United States of a third species of Chlorippe {Idyia

 East of the Rocky Mountains from Mclvenzie River and the Northern shore 

 of the St. Lawrence, southward to the northernmost of the United States.

I place Proserpina as a dimorphic form of Arthemis with much hesitancy, 

 and only provisionally. It is very probably a hybrid of Arthemis and 

 Astyanax.
