I found this along the frontier at 8000 to 4000 feet in 

 forest from the Pemehue range as far south as Puerto Blest. 

 The female figured is from the latter locality and the 

 male from Chilpa. It does not seem to vary in the 

 mountains so much as on the coast, where Edmonds found 

 it at Corral in March. Butler has described three varieties 

 as tracti2)ennis, quadrinotahis and pulchcr, which differ in 

 the number of spots on the upper-side and in other minor 

 characters. In Mr. Godman's collection is a male from 

 Chile marked " tripunctatus — type, Mab." This is described 

 as coming from high mountains.

Very near the last but has an additional silver stripe 

 on the hind-wings below which I have never found 

 in fritticolens. I did not take this species, which occurs 

 at Las Zonas in Yaldivia. 



64. ? Butleria sotoi. 



Cydopicles sotoi, Reed, Mon. Mar. Chil, p. 86 (1877). 



The only specimen of this in British Museum marked 

 " type " seems distinct from either of the last by the 

 yellowish colour at base of both wings below, and the 

 presence of a spot on the hind-wing below. Reed 

 took it in the hacienda of Cauquenes, but does not 

 say at what elevation. I found a single worn speci- 

 men, which I believe is identical, in thick forest by the 

 waterfall at Las Trancas, the last station below the Baths 

 of Chilian, at about 4000 feet, on December 24th, but 

 neither this nor the type are in good enough condition to 

 figure.

The next three or four species are nearly allied to each 

 other, but I have not sufficient material to define them 

 accurately, and their synonymy is doubtful. 



What seems to agree best with Blauchard's plate is a
