somewhat intermediate between the LycccnidiC and Lenioniidtn. 

 In Lycccna, &c., the legs are slender, and no such spine is

 inhabits Southern France and Spain in very early spring. The 

 male is brown, with traces of a sub-marginal orange band at 

 the anal angle of the hind-wings. The female has orange fore-

 of reddish dorsal spots bordered with brownish-red, and bi- 

 sected by a blue line. It feeds on Lotus hispidus in May.
