ANOSIA PLEXIPPUS. 
In view of recent occurrences in this country, our readers will 
probably be interested to have a figure and description of Anosia 
plexippus. The life-size figure given above is from a woodcut, 
drawn by Mr. Frohawk for the ‘Field,’ and has been kindly 
presented to the ‘Entomologist’ by the editor of that journal. 
The following description is taken from ‘Synopsis of the 
described Lepidoptera of North America,’ by the late John 
G. Morris, Smithsonian Institute, Washington, 1862, which is a 
translation from one by Boisduval :-—

rather brilliant reflection; all the wings entirely margined with 
deep black, having, in fresh specimens, a bluish reflection ;
