1016 Additions: PIERIDAE. By J. Rober. 



in the latter being more intensely white-ringed than in the former, and in joergenseni the first two subcostal 

 veins branch off at a greater distance from the end of the discocelhilar than in sagittnta. 



disiuiclfi. T. distincta Jorg. (194 a) has been discovered by the author in the Aeomzuija Mountains (Argentina). 



The upper surface of the $ forewnig is similar to that of mncrodke (18 c), the upper surface of tlic hindwing 

 is like that of the ^J; the forewing beneath shows a submarginal row of black hook-shaped spots. 



T. stigmadice Stgr. (194 a) \^'as declared to be a distinct si^ecies by Pedro Jorgensen. The figured 

 specimens which I owe to his kindness, are from Esquina Grande; the species flies in November and March, 

 thus in 2 generations. — im.maculata Rob. (18 e), according to Pedro Jorgen.sen, also occurs in Bolivia. — 

 ab. punctata Jdrg. differs from immaculata by the forewing being purely white and the hindwing slightly cream- 

 coloured; the veins of the hindwing exhibit similar markings as the apex of the forewing, the yellow stripes 

 of the under srn-face showing through; the black discal spot of the forewing is comma-shaped as in orthodice 

 (18 e), but a little more bent, all the veins being fine black, in the apex there are triangular, black spots. 



marmartiia. P. monuste ab. marmorata Jorg. has yellow colouring at the apex of the forewing beneath, and 



beside the blackish colouring at this place of the wing also the same at the apex of the hindwing beneath. This 

 race forms a transition to orseis in which, particularly in the female, there is mostly much dark marking on 

 a yellowish or ^^•hite ground. 



P. itaticayne Foett. (19 d), according to P. Jorgensen, has likewise been found in Argentina. Accor- 

 dino- to Zikan's statement, it is merely a form of the extraordinarily variable monuste (p. 57). 



P. buniae gargara Fruhst. ,,A relatively small race much more approximating the forms of the 



Lower Amazon than its Brazilian allies. It may therefore be rather inserted in fhaloe. There are now $$ before 



me with a much receding black border of the forewing and but insignificant grey dusting on the hindwing above, 



so that I presume that only the ,,dry season" form is lying before me. The boomerang of the forewing is rather 



narrow. A $ is above almost white, another one almost entirely yellow. Patria: Matto Grosso. Under surface 



of hindwing yellow Mith a strongly parted discal brown band. Also here we must inseit two more forms from 



urla.rala. the Coll. 8taudinger: artaxata subs'p. nov. being allied to phaloe and gargara, but still smaller, beneath still 



paler than the Obidos-race, and the brown discal transverse bands of the hindwing beneath remarkably narrowed. 



grrosa. [ It is questionable whether it is also a dry season form: Patria: Venezuela. (Type Coll. Staudinger). — gerosa 



subsp. nov. $ differs from that of phaloe from Obidos by the purely white discal region of the liindw ing beneath 



and the more than twice as extensive and jet-black instead of brown transverse bands of the median and co.stal 



iiiii>iini.<<sa. region of the hind\^ing. Patiia: Amazon from Itaituba upwards. — masinissa subsp. nov. qi Above with a 



broader black apex than the form figured b}' Grose-Smith and the Ecuador form. $: beneath throughout 



pale straw-coloured with remarkably broad black circunicellular spots which are distally united like a band 



and extend up to the subbasal bancl. Patria: Bolivia, Garlepp leg. Type in the Coll. Staudinger." 



piillUla. F. pallida Scudd., according to Wright's figure, is a form (of )iapi) entirely unmarked in the male. 



whilst the female is only above very little marked. Western coast of North America. 



Ilava. F. flava Wr., from the western coast of North America, is a form of sisi/inbrii (19 c) being above 



and beneath light ^yellow. 

 7iclsiiiu. F. nelsoni Wr. from the same region, according to the figure, seems to be a beckeri (19 c) exhibiting 



on the hindwing above black-hued veins and beneath submarginal dentate marking. 



rnbirc. F. calyce Edw. is presumably a small, intensely marked form of occidentalis (19 c); from the western 



coast of North America. 



bri/onac. F. bryonac IIV. is a much lighter form of the palearctic napi bryonae (Vol. I, t. 21 c). Western 



coast. 

 caMoria. F. castofia Reuk. is a very light form of napi (vol. I, t. 21 b); western coast of North America. 



niaru'iiialis. F. marglnalis Scudd. is apparently a small, but little marked form of rapae (19 b). Western coast. 



P. pallida Rub. (p. 01). This name having already been disposed of in this genus, I denominate this 

 Iciiiania. subordinate species leucania. 



P. pylotis Godt. (19 d) also occurs in Argentina (Corrientes) and menacte Bsd. (19 b) in Buenos Ayres. 

 About P. lactea Burm. from Argentina I am sorry not to be able to make any statements. 



tiiaijuMa. Leptopliobia diaguita Jorg. (194 b) from Argentina (Prov. of Catamarca, 1C40 m) flies in April and May 



and in November and December on the blossoms of Oxalis and other insignificant plants. It is closely allied 

 to eleone (20 c) ; beneath less yellow than the latter, the marginal dots of the hindwing beneath scarcely noticeable, 

 at the base no yellow spot, the anterior dot at the end of the discocellular only traceable.
