Collection of LcfidofUra from Arctic America. 243 



difficult to examine, owing to their hairy covering and 

 being somewhat compressed in packing, I can find only one 

 undoubted female among them. None of the specimens 

 sent are quite Avhat Curtis figures as chionc, in Avhich the 

 marginal band is faint or absent. 



The species seems to have been fairly common at Point 

 Epworth, Gray's Bay, and on the Barren Grounds. 



14. Colias pclidnc. 



C. pclidnc, Boisduval, Icones, PI. VIII, figs. 1-3. 



Three pairs from Point Epworth, Barren Grounds, and 

 Dismal Creek, of which the females differ inter se a good 

 deal, one being white and two lemon-yellow. 



15. Colias nastcs. 



C. nastcs, Boisduval, I .c, figs. 4, 5. 



Four males and two females from Barren Grounds, all 

 varying. These might be called rossii, Guen., or moina, 

 Streck., by those who like to try and distinguish local 

 forms, a very uncertain task in the case of Arctic insects.
