132 THE ENTOMOLOGIST. 



B. euphrosyue, L. — Common at Disenaaen and at Mattmar ; 

 also taken at Narvik and Abisko. Var. fingal, Hbst. — Amongst 

 those taken at the first two localities are examples closel_y 

 approaching if not of this variety. 



B. pales, Schiff., var. arsilache, Esp. (form aquilonaris, 

 Stichel). — Abisko, July 11th and 12th. Yar. lapponica, Stgr. — 

 Very common at Joraholmeu. Single specimens also taken at 

 Kval0 and Bjorkliden. 



B. freija, Thnb. — Very common at Abisko, but getting worn. 

 In better condition on the way up to Lap-porten. 



Erebia medusa, F. var. polaris, Stgr. — Fairly common at 

 Joraholmen and Bossekop. Quite fresh out, but not easy to get 

 perfect. 



E. lappona, Esp. — Common and newly emerged at Abisko, 

 and around Hammerfest. 



E. ligea, L. —Narvik, July 10th, fresh out and common. At 

 Bjorkliden it was also common. Var. horealis, Brown, — Some 

 of the latter — Bjorkliden specimens — are of this variety. 



E. emhla, Thnb. — Only a very few at Mattmar. 



(Ends jiitta, Hb. — Disennaen bog. 



(E. noma, Thnb. — Bossekop, worn on July 1st. 



Pararge hiera, F. — Rather common in the woods at Disenaaen. 



Ccenonymjjha pamphiliis, L. — I saw this species at Disenaaen, 

 but did not take any specimens. 



Chrysophanus liippotho'e var. stieberi, Gerb. — Taken at Bosse- 

 kop, Joraholm and Narvik. The females from Narvik are ruddy 

 copper and those from Finmark are brassy. 



C. phlaeas var. hypophleas,'B. {americamts, d' (Jrhsin) . —On\j at 

 Hammerfest on the right or northern side of the baj', where it 

 was common. As with the northern form of the last species the 

 copper is brassy. The underside of the hind wing is pale ash- 

 grey. The spots and borders are very black, broad and distinct. 

 It was not easy to catch on account of the high wind on this 

 wind-swept island : it frequently no sooner showed itself than it 

 was carried away. 



C. amphidamas, Esp., var. obscura, Eiihl. — Very abundant at 

 Mattmar. They were in perfect condition, but very easily 

 tarnished. The females are very varied. 



Plebeius argiis (argyrognomon) var. lappoiica, Meissn. — This 

 was the most abundant of any species seen. Many females have 

 very little if any blue. Taken at Bossekop and Joraholmen ; 

 and at Narvik and Abisko on my return visit, July 11th and 12th. 



Glaucopsydie optilete, Knoch., var. cyp)arissus, Hb. — Specimens 

 taken at Joraholmen and Abisko do not seem to have such a pale 

 underside as those taken at Disenaaen, but the latter were all 

 worn, which may account for the difference. I got them abso- 

 lutely fresh out on July 12th near Lap-porten. 



Polyommatus icarus, Eott. — Narvik, July 10th. At Jorahol-
