COLLECTING IN HUNGARY. alg bal 
arranged, and which Herr Szlabey said I should join, I did not 
go to Orsova. I was back in Budapest on the 15th; two 
members of the Entomological Society had been at Peszér pro- 
specting the day before, and had only secured of Melanargia 
iapygia var. suwarovius two males. ‘The party had therefore 
decided not to leave until the afternoon of the 17th, as they 
surmised the species was not yet out, and to stay two days. I 
regretted that I could not delay so long; but since then Herr 
Szlabey writes: ‘‘ We visited the place, five entomologists, but 
none of us saw any myrmidone or suwarovius, and we returned 
after two days’ hunting without the least hope of catching the 
latter species this year. I suppose for swwarovius it was already 
too late.” I think it is quite evident that this species is not so 
common in this locality as formerly.

presents only those of which specimens were obtained and those
