FLIES FOR JUNE. 10^ 



THE BLACK DRAKE 



Is the male green drake metamorphosed. Its 

 term of existence is about the same as that of 

 the female above mentioned. It is smaller than 

 the female, and very much darker, and is erro- 

 neously supposed by some, who call him the 

 Death Drake, to kill her. He is never in season 

 without her, but is not here represented, because 

 he is not so fat and tempting a bait. 



No. 29. THE OEANGE DUK 



This is another species of Dun of some im- 

 portance on the Dove and other Derbyshire 

 waters. It is equally attractive to Trout and 

 Grayling, and is a prime favourite in its day — 

 the end of June, July, and August. 



IMITATION. 



Body. Dark orange silk, and the fly to be 

 dressed with the same. 



Tail. Two fibres of a starling's feather. 

 Legs. A dark dun hackle.
