N0.148S. BUTTERFLIES OF BRITISH AMERICA— GARY. 449 



SATYRODEvS CANTHUS (Linnaeus). 



I observed this Ijuttertiy but once, at Smith Landing-, Athabaska, 

 flune 12, 1903. Apparently rare in the north. 



Scudder mentions specimens from the vicinity of Great Slave Lake.'^' 



CENEIS CHRYXUS Doubleday and Hewitson. 



One example from the Nahanni JVIountains, July KJ, 1 ',)();>. It was 

 taken on a rock slide, together with two or three other species of 

 Oeneis. Mr. Preble captured a female at Fort Good Hope, June 23, 

 1904. 



0. chryxux is more common in the southern and eastern provinces. 



CENEIS JUTTA (Hiibner). 



I collected three specimens on a rock slide in the Nahanni Moun- 

 tains, July 16, 1903. Doctor Dyar considers them intermediate in 

 coloration between normal jutta and var. (daskensis Holland, 



Doctor Strecker mentions specimens from the "Athabasca region,'' 

 which he received from Herr Geti'cken, of Stuttgart, Germany." 



Like the preceding species, jutta seems to be more abundant in the 

 southern and eastern provinces, although its range is undoubtedly 

 continuous, connecting with that of var. a/ai^h-nsis on the northwest. 



CENEIS BORE (Hubner). 



According to Butler, Miss Elizabeth Taylor collected this species at 

 the Rapids of the Drowned, Slave River, June 28, 1892.^ 



CENEIS TAYGETE (Hubner). 



Three examples were collected at Fort McPherson, Juh^ S, 19o4, by 

 Edward A. Preble. 



Richardson collected a pair of these l)uttertiies on the "Arctic Coast 

 between 67i" and OS ,■" which White records as Chionohaa hore Boisd.'^ 

 A small series of taijgete, comprising live males and three females, was 

 taken by Hanlniry at Gray's Ba}', Point Epworth, and on the Barren 

 Grounds to the westward of Point Epworth, early in Julv, 1902. 

 These specimens have been listed ])y Elwes.'' 



This variety has been taken in Alaska, and is connnon in portions of 

 Labrador, appaixnitly inhabiting the tundra regions only. 



OENEIS SUBHYALINA (Curtis). 



I captured a single specimen in the Nahanni Mountains, July 13, 

 1903.
