but such pale markings as remain are exceedingly silvery and metallic, 

 and not pearly white, as in most Alpine specimens. The four males 

 mentioned as somewhat intermediate between var. arsilache and the type, 

 are probably ab. lapponica, whilst a male specimen from Elvenaes 

 (Aug, 4th) is also referable to this aberration. Of two specimens 

 captured at Harstad (July olst), one is a very fine specimen of var. 

 arsilac/ie, the other belongs to ab. lappiniica, whilst a male and female, 

 both fulvous in colour and heavily marked, captured at Odde 

 (July 28th), belong to var. arsilache. The form lapponica here would 

 appear to occur as an aberration of the var. (or local race) arsUacltr. 

 Jlirnt/iis eiiphrosi/iw. — Two specimens, both apparently males. Both 

 are pale, although one is decidedly more fulvous than the other, the 

 latter very pale, especially in the centre of the wing and towards the 

 base. The paler one is under average size, the other quite up to the 

 average. Beneath, the larger specimen is well marked, the smaller one 

 indistinctly so, especially on the hind-wings. 



Fam. : Satyiud^. — Krebia U<jca and K. eunjalc. — There are four little 

 lots of this (or these) species in the collection. (1). Three large worn 

 typical specimens of K. lujea, from the Horre Pass (captured July 28th). 

 (2). Two males and four females, from Odde (July 2Sth). These are 

 rather less than the Horre specimens, of full colour, and appear to be, 

 both on the upper and undersides, undoubted K. I'ujcu. (8). Thirty- 

 three specimens from Bodo (captured on July 80th). These are 

 smaller than the preceding lots, and are most like the specimens of 

 K. eurijale, which Dr. Chapman, Mr. Lemann, and myself captured 

 at Mendel Pass, in late July and early August, 1895. They have, 

 however, on the whole, a little more of the Iviea characters about 

 them. The Bodo females are, generally, K. lit/ca. They have well- 

 developed fulvous bands, and the ocellated spots and white band on 

 the hind-wings are more nearly E. lujea than l\. ruri/ali'. The males, 

 however, on the upper side, tend rather towards the latter, and some 

 are undoubted I'lirj/alc, being, in fact, quite indistinguishable from 

 certain Tyrolean examples in my collection. The Bodo S2:)ecimens 

 may be described in detail as follows :^G round colour very dark, the 

 fulvous bands broad ; those of the females rather orange- fulvous in 

 colour. Usually, there are foiir ocellated spots on the band of the 

 fore-wing. Five males and one female with three spots only, and one 

 male with four on the right and three on the left fore-wing. The spots 

 are variable in size. In three male specimens the spots are very 

 small and blind, whilst others show a gradation until the normal large 

 ocellated spots are reached. The broad fulvous band on the hind- 

 wings is, in some of the females, divided into sections by the dark 

 nervures. A parallel variation in the size and number of the ocellated 

 spots with that exhibited by the fore-wings is shown on the hind- 

 wings. The underside of the fore-wings, has a broad fulvous band, the 

 base rather darker ; the hind-wings, with traces of the normal white 

 band on the costa and towards the centre of the wings ; the females 

 with this character more strongly developed. The ocellated spots on 

 the underside of the hind-wings are surrounded by fulvous in the 

 males, by orange-yellow in the females. This is a remarkable character, 

 rarely, if ever, developed in the males of southern cnnjalc or liiica, but 

 found as a rare aberration among the females of the latter. This gives 

 the whole of the specimens captured by Dr. Chapman (at Horre, Odde,
