segment, rather flattened and slightly notched on the crown; 
body of nearly uniform width, but tapering very slightly 
anteriorly; skin very finely, but almost inconspicuously, 
ribbed transversely; ground colour pale olive-brown; head 
brown, marbled with gray; medio-dorsal stripe very indis- 
tinct ; on the anterior segments it is composed of a very fine 
double line, darker than the ground colour; these lines 
conjoin and become darker, and more conspicuous posteriorly, 
forming a distinct black stripe on the 10th, 11th, and 12th 
segments ; there are also four square black marks at equal 
distances apart on the dorsal surface, each of which is divided 
into two equal parts by the medio-dorsal line; the sub-dorsal 
lines are brownish gray, and the spiracular lines gray; 
ventral surface olive-green, thickly variegated with darker, 
and having two almost imperceptible dark green central 
lines. In other specimens the belly is grayish in the centre, 
gradually becoming darker as it approaches the spiracular 
region, where it is smoky black. When at rest the food-plant 
is grasped by the claspers, and the head curved inwards.—

Argynnis Lathonia near Ipswich.—Last week a most 
beautiful specimen of A. Lathonia was captured in a clover 
field about three miles from here, which I now have the 
pleasure of possessing.—Edward F. Bisshopp. 
Variety of Argynnis Euphrosynee-—On Whit Monday I 
captured a splendid variety of Melitea EKuphrosyne in fine 
condition: the upper side of the wings is suffused with 
black; the silver spots on the under side of the inferior 
wings are continued in lines to the base of the wing.—James 
Parsons ; Currier’s Lane, Ipswich, July 18, 1871. 
Limenitis Sibylla.—I drove to Doles Wood, near Hurst- 
bourne Tarrant, yesterday, and took about a dozen Limenitis 
Sibylla, but all very much rubbed; quite three weeks too 
late for this species: wanted them for my friend Mr. Wells, at 
Kensington. Saw scores.—Henry Reeks.
