English Names for Butterflies. 



(Continued from page 11.) 



19. Papilio Antiopa. — The Camberwell Beauty. 



The well known English name, worth importing, although local, and hav- 

 ing a special significance for England only. It has also been called the 

 Mourning Cloak, an expressive name, but translated from the German. 



20. Aglais Milberti. — The nettle Tortoise-shell. 



Called Milbert's butterfly by Harris, and the forked butterfly by Gosse, 

 the last in allusion to the name given by Say. The caterpillar feeds, as is 

 well known, on nettle. 



21. Vanessa Atalanta. — The red Admiral. 

 The English name. 



22. Vanessa Huntera. — The painted Beauty. 



A name well proposed by Gosse, indicating its relation to the next spe- 

 cies. Harris simply called it Hunter's butterfly. 



23. Vanessa cardui. — The painted Lady. 



The English name for this cosmopolitan butterfly. Harris called it the 

 thistle butterfly. 



24. Junonia Coenia. — The Buckeye. 



Mr. Behrens says this is an English name for this insect. I have never 

 heard of it, and give it only on his testimony. »S. H. Scudder.
