130 THE entomologist's RECORD. 



blue-black shade, and the usual description of the 5 as brown would, in 

 their case, certainly not apply. Judging, however, from one's ordinary 

 captures, it would appear that the colour tones down to brown after 

 quite a short flight. 



P. nieleaifer. — Eggenthal and Sarnthal, J s only. 



F. eroii. — Brenner, not common. 



Latiorina orbitulus. — Sulden, not common. 



AlhuUna phereteH. — Sulden, Karersee, Brenner, including ab. $ 

 caendeopunctata. The specimens shew great variety in the number of 

 eye-spots on the underside of the front wing.

 12th, 1911. 



S. oriun ab. nii/ra. — One fine 5 in the Sarnthal on June 28th, 

 1911. 



I acciniina optilete. — Fairly frequent at Brenner. 



Everes coretas. — In the Eggenthal, and on the Mendel Pass, in both 

 cases worn. 



Xonlniannia ilicis. — In the Eggenthal and the Sarnthal, worn. 



Rlngia spini. — On the Mendel Pass, July 12th, 1912, worn.

Colias pldcomone. — Madonna di Campiglio. 



NYMPHALiDyE. — Argyiinis adippe. — Mendel Pass.

 Trafoi ; one or two others at Brenner. 



B. daphne. — Frequent in the Eggenthal. 



B. pales ab. $ napaea. — Some fine specimens of this form were 

 taken at Brenner. 



Melitaea cynthia. — Sulden and Brenner; not common at either place, 

 and getting worn. 



M. aurinia, var. werope. — Sulden, Brenner. 



Melitaea asteria. — This species occurred in very fair numbers at 

 Brenner. It was getting worn, but in the two years we secured a fine 

 series of both t? s and ? s. It is an inconspicuous insect, not very 

 easy to capture, and might at first be mistaken for a small moth. 



M. parthenie var. varia. — Sulden. 



M. athalia. — We took a fine variety of this species on the Mendel 

 Pass, with a bright orange ground colour ; the black markings are 

 heavy, but there are wide central light bands on both wings. 



M. dictynna. — Generally distributed, and varying considerably in 

 size. On the Mendel Pass we took one specimen expanding only 

 30mm. 



Envanessa antiopa. — Eggenthal, Mendel. 



Eiujonia polyehloros. — Eggenthal. 



Lviienitis popnli. — We took this insect in excellent condition both 

 in the Eggenthal and on the Mendel Pass. One magnificent 2 

 expands 84mm.
