oH THE ENTOMOLOGIST. 



Amoug plants may be mentioned the rare Cytisus horniflorus, 

 two species of Gentian {Gentiana cruciata and G. pneumonanthe) , 

 the latter flourishing on dry sandstone ! Numerous orchids : 

 Astei- amellus, Physalis alkekengi, and many others. 



Among the Lepidoptera are Colias myrmidone, Thecla acacice, 

 Lyccena alcon, L. coretas var. decolorata, Syrichthus lavaterce, 

 Hesperia sida, and others. 



Finally, there is the forest region, which at one time ap- 

 proached, and, in fact, mingled with, the two previously ruen- 

 tioned types of country. Forest still clothes much of the Eez 

 Mountains and some of the more flat country, and two small 

 patches exist on the sandy hills. The forests are all used as 

 grazing places for cows and pigs, with the result that the flora 

 is gradually changing, and most of the Lepidoptera are exceed- 

 ingly rare. 



Neptis aceris, Argynnis laodice, Satyrus circe, S. dryas, Erebia 

 hlandina, Epinephele titlionus, and Heteropterus morpheus may all 

 be cited as typical of the forest region, as well as some others. 



Ninety-eight species and local races are recorded in this list, 

 which is almost certainly very incomplete, as many widely dis- 

 tributed insects are missing from it.
