NO. 3552 GENUS CALYCOPIS — FIELD 19 



the ground color in spring specimens is frequently darker and the 

 black pupillated marginal lunules of the hindwing usually contain 

 orange or red scales. One aberration has been described and named 

 and is placed in the synonymy (ab. gottschalki Clark) as it is only an 

 individual variant differing in having all red of undersm*faces replaced 

 by yellow. 



Type-localities. — The type-locaUties for cecrops and poeas are 

 unknown, although they undoubtedly are both from one of the 

 states along the eastern coast of the United States between Virginia 

 and Georgia, and probably the latter. Fabricius states that cecrops 

 is found "in Indiis"; however, this is entirely false. The type-locahty 

 for the synonym gottschalki is Fort Lewis Mt., Roanoke Co., Virginia. 



Location of types. — I have been unable to locate either the 

 types of cecrops or of poeas. The holotype of C. cecrops ab. gottschalki 

 is in the United States National Museum, type 52256.
