Thecla Poeas, Hiib. Very common. 

 Thecla Clytie, Edw. 3 $ . 



Probably equals T. Adn'a, Hew. , but with such limited material we 

 cannot decide. 



Thecla Leda, Edw. i 9 . 



Lycaena Isola, Reak. Common. 



LyccEna Alee, Edw. 

 There are no differences to be found in the description of Isola and 

 Alee. Our specimens, of which we have a large number, entirely agree 

 with both descriptions, and also with specimens of Alee from Arizona, 

 determined by Mr. Edwards. 

 Lycsena Cyna, Edw. i 9 . 



This species was described from one 9 , captured at San Antonio, 

 by the late Mr. Boll. Until the capture of the specimen now under 

 consideration the type has remained a unique in collections. Our 

 specimen agrees perfectly with the very complete description. 

 Lycaena Antibubastus, Hiib. Common. 

 LyccEua Filenus, Poey. 

 Rusticus Adolescens Hanno, Hiib. 

 Lycsena Exilis, Boisd. Very common. 



Ancyloxypha Numitor, Fabr. Moderately common. CoUette 



River. 



Copaeodes Procris, Edw. Not common. 



var. Waco, Edw. Common. 

 The variety Waco may readily be distinguished by the lighter colored 

 striae on the secondaries beneath. 



Pamphila Campestris, Boisd. Very common. 



Pamphila Huron, Edw. 

 A large series taken. These specimens compared with a very large 

 series from New Jersey to Texas and Illinois to New Mexico confirm 

 an opinion long held that the species described as Huron, by Mr. Ed- 

 wards in 1863, is in every particular identical with Boisduval's Cam- 

 pestris, described in 1852. 



These series, embracing perhaps 300 examples, fail to exhibit any 

 marked difference that will warrant their separation as varieties, as 

 is done by Mr. Strecker in his Catalogue; much less can they be sepa- 

 rated specifically, as is still done by Mr. Edwards in his recent Cat- 

 alogue. In our collections will be found specimens from San Ber- 

 nardino, Cal., Waco, Texas, and Maryville, East Tennessee, examined 

 by Mr. Edwards and labeled by him " Campestris, Boisd." 



Pamphila Phylaeus, Drury. Exceedingly common in August. 



Pamphila Brettus, Boisd. -Lee. 



var. Brettoides, Edw. i $ , 2 9 . 

 This variety may be distinguished by its wanting the row of fuscous 

 markings near outer margin on the under side. The female does not
