80 THE REPORT OF THE No. 19 



22. Enrymus pelidne, var. minismi, Elwes. I cannot find that this name was ever 

 published, although Mr. Bean always spcke of the insect Mrs. Nicholl refers to, under 

 the name of minismi. E. pelidne, var. Skinneri is the same thing. 



24. E. Claudia is a prairie species. The larvse are sometimes destructive to pansies 

 and other violets in gardens. 



26. Argynnis atlantis. The Rocky mountain species called atlantis by Mr. Elwes 

 is claimed by Mr. Edwards to be electa. There is only one form in our Rocky Moun- 

 tains. 



Melitcea cTialcedon has not so far been recorded from a Canadian locality. Pos- 

 sibly this may be Macglasliani, which occurs in the Boundary country. 



M. nuhigena. True nuhigena has not been recorded from Canada. 



48. M. Tuhicunda, ditto. 



54. Ph. m,ylitta is a small species expanding about 1 inch to 1^ inches. All that 

 I have seen from the Okanagan are a somewhat similar species, Ph. Barnesii, with a 

 large female expanding about 1^ inches. 



71. Coen. ampelos. This species at least is easily recognised by the absence of ocelli 

 and by its silky pale fawn color. It is the only Coenonympha on Vancouver Island. 

 Inornata is much darker in tone than ochracea and has much less white beneath. 



72. C. elko 's a synonym of ampelos. 



88. Heodes hypophleas. The species taken by Mr. WoUey-Dod near Millarville, 

 south of Calgary, is a magnificent insect larger and far finer than any form of hypor 

 phleas we have in Canada. I hope Mr. Dod will describe it. 



92. Cupido scepiolus. This species in no way resembles antiacis. The male is 

 silvery blue above, has a double row of spots on hind wing beneath and two or three 

 reddish spots at anal angle above. None of these characters are found in antiacis. 



93. Ciipido pheres. The form of this species on Vancouver Island is the variety 

 ardea which has the spots beneath almost obliterated. Lycea is like fulla but is violet 

 blue above, not the silvery blue of pheres. 



94. Nomiades Couperi. The mountains form here referred to is called lygdanfius by 

 Canadian collectors following Mr. W. H. Edwards. 



100. Busticus acmon. Common across the plains. 



101. Busticus anna. Not uncommon on Vancouver Island and at many places in 

 the mountains. 



103. Everes comynias. I never saw this from Vancouver Island, ^myntula is 

 common everywhere from Manitoba to the Coast. The diflFerences are slight, but the 

 two species can, as a rule, be easily separated. Comyntas is less silvery beneath and 

 altogether a more eastern-looking species.
