ANTHOCIIARIS 11. 



same as Olympia. I have recently asked Mr. S. H. Scudder to look at this insect 

 and compare with the figure of Rosa. He replies : " It is almost precisely like 

 your Fig. 1, with the sole exception of the position of the dusky flecks at the 

 extreme tip of the wing, those in Figs. 1 and 3 showing a little bar parallel to the 

 one within, while these were at the very apex itself."' From which the Dallas 

 example would seem to be Rosa. 



It may be that these are properly but forms of one species, Olympia the 

 northern, Rosa the southern form. As yet not much is known about either, 

 and of Rosa nothing but what I have given above. Doubtless they are com- 

 mon in many localities, but flying at the same time with the white Pierids, 

 they are unobserved.
