VANESSA ANTIOPA (var.). 
Variety of Vanessa Antiopa.—I beg to offer you an 
extraordinary specimen of Vanessa Antiopa, thinking you 
would like to figure it in the ‘Entomologist. —George Hoadley 
King; 190, Great Portland Street. 
In this beautiful variety of the well-known Antiopa, or 
white-bordered butterfly, the white border is remarkably 
broad, and its limits are very indistinctly defined, and 
scarcely perceptible at the apical angle of the fore wing: 
it is irrorated with black, and in the hind wings it assumes 
an entirely different form, the dark and light portions of 
the wing uniting in an oblique but direct line: the usual 
series of blue spots within this pale border is entirely want- 
ing, as is the inner of the pale costal spots, so conspicuous in 
ordinary specimens. 
Liparis dispar in Essex.—I believe most entomologists 
will be interested in the statement as to the occurrence
