Fig. 12. B. acheluui S, Feb. 22, 1899. 



13. Cydopides vnllemi ^, Marcli 1, 1899. A woodland insect 



settling on flowers and never on ground. Rests at night 

 on grass-stems. Probably attacked on the wing, as the 

 injury is unilateral and the butterfly closes its wings 

 when .settled. 



14. Pseudonympha vvjiluns r^, IMarcli 17, 1901. A rock butter- 



fly, lizards the probable enemies. 



15. Janonia cehrene ^, Jan. 14, 1899. 



16. „ „ „ Feb. 18, 1899. 



17. G. ivlllemi ^, March 11, 1899. If this butterfly was 



attacked, a bird is llie probable enemy. 



18. Herpmda eriphia $, March 9, 1898. Flies slowly and 



rather low, settling on flowers and the ground like a 

 Teraculus. Lizards the probable enemies. 



19. Mylothris riippelii J, Feb. 1900. Slow flapping flight, 



settling on flowers and twigs of bushes in exposed 

 positions. The wings are generally open during a short 

 rest. The hind-wing was probably shorn through by a 

 bird. 



20. Terias senegalensls ^, Jan. 21, 1899. 



21. T. recjularis ?, May 24, 1901. 



22. Belenois severhut 9 , Jan. 25, 1899.

24. Catopsilia flordla S, Dec. 18, 1898. 



25. Temcolus achine ^ , April IH, 1899. 



26. Argynnis cybele , Aug. 2,1897. Captured by E. B. Poulton, 



near North Lake, Hartland, Wis., U.S.A. A flower- 

 haunting fritillary very probably injured by a bird. 



27. B. severina ^, Feb. 15, 1899. 



28. Epiiiephele janira $ , Aug. 15, 1900. Captured by A. H. 



Hamm, near Dawlish, S. Devon. Both hind-wings 

 probably shorn through by a bird ; lizards are not im- 

 portant enemies in this country. The straight line of the 

 injury also suggests a bird's beak. 



29. Melanargia galathea, July 21, 1898. Captured by E. B. 



Poulton on the Stalden Rd., near Visp, Valais, about 

 2300 feet. The injury might well be by a lizard, but in 

 Europe they are not nearly such important enemies as 

 they become further south. 



30. Lyceena icarus, July 26, 1898. Captured by E. B. Poulton 



at Creux de Genthod, N.W. shore of the Lake of Geneva, 

 1230 feet. The character of the injury clearly suggests a 

 bird.
