192 August, 1!<1S. 



152. — Pyrameis atalanta, L. Not coiniiion, Init f^ciiLTally distributed through- 

 out the I'egioii. Flies all the year round. Very small specimens are 

 occasionally met with. 



Ibi. — P. cardui, L. Abundant everywhere during the summer, espcjcially at 

 Algeciras during the month of May. 



IGl. —Vanessa polychloros, L. Not very common, and usually flies high up 

 round trees. Hibernated specimens met with in the Cork Woods in 

 February (19112). A fine fresh specimen taken at the Watei-falls, near 

 Algeciras, on June 8th, 1912. 



175. — Melitiea aurinia, Eott., var. iberica, Obth. After searching throughout 

 the region, during my 2^ years collecting there, for examples of the 

 genus Melit;ra, I did not meet with any until I was packing up to leave 

 the country. Col. Angell informed inc he had taken a " Fritillary " at 

 the Waterfalls, Algeciras, about a fortniglit before, so I lost no time in 

 going over. I found this species fairly plentiful, but worn, on June 8th, 

 1912. They appear to be closely restricted to their locality, for 

 although 1 Iiad worked near the spot during the past two seasons, I 

 had not met with a single stray specimen. 



180. — M. phcebe, Knoch, var. occitanica, Stgr. Taken at Granada by Mr. G. 0. 

 Sloper at the beginning of May, 1911. 



190. — M. dejone, H.-G., var. nevadensis, Obth. Taken at Granada abo\it a fort- 

 night later than the preceding species. 



240. — Argynnis pandora, SchifF. Taken at Tangier on September 22nd, 1910, 

 and at the Cork Woods on Jiily 1st, 1911, and June l(5th, 1912. This 

 species Avas very scarce in the localities I worked. 



257. -Melanargia ines, Hffsg. Taken by Mr. Sloper at Granada in good 

 condition, from May «th to 24th, 1911. 



258. — M. syllius, Hbst. As the previous species. 



343. — Satyrus hriseis, L. Taken by Mr. G. O. Sloper at Granada, who states 

 they occur there very rarely (July 6th, 1911). 



370. — S. statilinus, Hiibn., var. allionia, F. Abundant in the Cork Woods 

 during July and August, but not seen in Gibraltar. 



372. — S. fidia, L. Common in Gibraltar from the middle of July until the end 

 of August, but I have seen worn specimens on the Upper Rock late in 

 September. The earliest dates of their appearance, during my stay, 

 were July 14th, 1910, and July 15th, 1911. As they are so " wild" on 

 the wing, it is difficult to obtain perfect specimens after the first week 

 in August. They soon become slightly chipped. 



385. — Pararge a^geria, L. Very abundant throughout the region dui'ing the 

 greater part of the year. First taken in good condition on Jan. loth, 

 1910 (Gibraltar). Always of the dark Southern form. 



390. — P. megiera, L. Not so abundant as the last species, but very plentiful, and 

 on the wing during the greater part of the year.
