■within it, three spots in wing, below cell, and a triangle in lower, outer 

 angle, all black. Hind wings have the marginal border not well defined, 

 being dusky within, and inclosing a row of yellowish spots, clearer on 

 basal half, and enclosing about three black spots. Beneath, banded 

 and lined with yellowish, dusky, whitish, and brownish, the general 

 effect being brownish. The silver C is entire. Fig, 81, g. 



Dryas is the summer form, with the hind wings much obscured 

 with dusky above, and Avith a yellowish overwashing. A variety has 

 the lower side of wings, grayish, much as in C. progne, but the C is 

 always wider than in that species. Expands, 1.42 to 2.20. Habitat, 

 Eastern, Middle, and North-western States, also North Carolina and 

 Tennesee, from Kansas to Texas, Ontario, Quebec, and Nova Scotia.

210. GRAPTA SATYRUS Edw. 

 Satyrld Butterfly. 

 About the size of G. comma much brighter orange, even than in- 

 terrogationis ; the marginal border is narrow, often being represented by 

 a series of scarcely confluent spots, there are six spots on wing, but the 

 lowest, is larger than in G. comma. Hind wings, have the sub-marginal 

 border, so detached, as scarcely to inclose any spots. Beneath, much 

 as in comma, but the C. is bent in the middle similar to that in progne 

 but is not quite as slight as in that species. Fig. ol, dd.
