THE BUTTERFLIES OF NEW BRUNSWICK. 117 



Grapta comma, Harm. 



(POLYGONIA COMMA.) 



Forms DRYAS, Edw. harrisii, Edw. 



This butterfly is not uncommon at St. John and Fredericton. Also 

 reported as occurring at Dalhousie, by Rev. C. J. S. Bethune (The Butterflies 

 of the Eastern Provinces of Canada.) 



Grapta faunas, Edw. 



(POLYGONIA FAUNUS.) 



This species is not so abundant as G. comma in this locality, and is 

 reported as not common at Fredericton and Sussex. 



Grapta profile, Cram. 



(POLYGONIA PROGNE.) 



Common throughout the Province, flying from May to October. 

 Grapta gracilis, Grote and Rob. 



(POLYGONIA GRACILIS. ) 



Evidently rare. Mr. R. McL. Vanwart reports this butterfly from Fred- 

 ericton. If the specimens have been correctly identified it will be an interesting 

 addition to our New Brunswick list. 



Grapta j-album, Boisd, Lee. 



(EUGONIA J-ALBUM.) 



This species does not appear to be common in the southern section of the 

 Province, only two or three specimens have been taken in St. John County 

 during the past three years. 



Vanessa antiopa, Linn. 



(EtTVANESSA ANTIOPA.) 



Abundant throughout the Province. Flying from April to October, but 

 most plentiful during the latter part of August. 



Vanessa milberti, Godt. 



(Aglais milberti.) 



This species is not common in St. John County, but it is apparently more 

 numerous in the interior of the Province.
