380 THE ENTOMOLOGIST. 



V. To and Pi/rameis Atalanta. — Common everywhere. 



P. Carditi. — Abundant in clover-fields in September, 

 1872. 1 have usually seen this species every autumn, but 

 not so plentifully. 



Apalura Iris. — Occurs in Claydon Woods. I have not 

 taken it. 



IMelanagria Galathea. — Swarming in a narrow meadow 

 between two woods at Claydon, in 1871 ; a single specimen 

 only in any other locality, 



Pyrarga Egeria and Megcera. — Common. 



Epinephide Janira and Tithonus. — Abundant. 



E. Hgperanthus. — Common in several woods. 



Coeiionymplia Pamp/tilus. — Abundant. 



Tliecla Qiiercufi. — Abundant in all the woods I have 

 visited, but frequently confined to particular spots in these 

 woods. 



T. W-Album. — Scarce ; one or two taken in gardens 

 surrounded with old elms. 



Polijonimatns Phlceas and Lycana Icarus. — Abundant. 



L. Aryiolas. — Rare. The " blues" seem very badly repre- 

 sented in the neighbourhood of Buckingham. There are one 

 or two localities where one might expect to find Arion, but I 

 have never been fortunate enough to fall in with it. 



Colias Edusa. — Common in September, 1870. 1 have not 

 seen it since. 



Rhodoceni RJiamni. — Abundant in the early spring ; 

 seldom seen in the autumn. 



Leucophasia Sinapis. — Scarce ; I have seen two specimens 

 only. 



Anthocharls Cardamines and Pieris Napi. — Abundant. 



P. Rupee and BrassiccB. — Abundant. Very much too 

 abundant in gardens in the town, which are much more 

 infested with the larvge than those in the open country. 



Hesperia Malvce, Tages, and Sylvanus, — Common on 

 railway- banks. 



H. Linea. — Common. 



Sphinges. 



Smerinthus ocellaius and Populi. — Common.
