PSYCHE. 



[June-Sept. 1S94. 



winter, when sonie of onr bright days 

 are too tempting for them to hibernate 

 all the time. 



The following is the list : — 



1. Danais archippiis, Fabr. While bj no 

 means rare, this species is not as abundant 

 as in the northern stales. 



2. Agraulis vanillae, L. Not common.

 common, on the College campus the larvae 

 feeding upon a common climbing plant, tlie 

 Cross Vine, Bignonia capreolata. This

 of the Ohio River and it is probably the more 

 common food-plant of Grapta in the South, 



6. Vanessa antiopa, L. While often 

 found, this species is rare here in com- 

 parison with its occurrence in the northern 

 states. I have often taken specimens in 

 January when they are found hibernating 

 at the side of logs.
