(E. jutta is not yet recorded from the Altai, but as it 

 was taken in the Upper Yenesei Valley by M. Jacobson, 

 I quite expect it to be found. 



(E. U7'(la (Ev.) may also occur in the Altai district, as 

 I have a pair in Grum's collection from the Oka river, 

 ■which is west of Irkutsk.

This species was sent to me by Alphciraky as cramhis, 

 va.v. panza, but after studying what Dr. Staudinger has 

 said about it in Iris, viii, p. 250, I agree with him that 

 it should be treated rather as a variety of bore, and Mr. 

 Edwards' examination of the clasp-form confirms this 

 opinion, though Herz in his account of his Lena expedition 

 (Iris, xi, p. 247) apparently overlooking what Staudinger 

 has said, treats it as a variety of cramhis. I have five 

 males and two females taken by Herz which show an 

 indistinct sex-mark in the male, and I have two females 

 from the Tomba river in the district of Verchojansk taken 

 by Czekanowsky. The bands of these vary somewhat 

 below, and the two latter specimens do not show the pale 

 marginal bands above as in the Lena specimens, but I 

 think that they can belong to no other species, though 

 not unlike a $ of what I believe to be jutta from the same 

 locality.

I have seen specimens of this species in the collection 

 of the Grand Duke Nicholas Michailovitch, and have to 

 thank him for a male from the Vitim river, the clasp of 

 which agrees with that of scmidea; and a female from 

 Irkut which I have figured, and which I think without 

 doubt is the same species as tunga, Stgr. A third 

 specimen, also a female, from Chamardaban in Grum- 

 Grshimailo's collection agrees very well with these,, which 

 M. Alphcraky and Herz identify with cdso ; and though 

 Boisduval says he received cdso from Siberia through 

 Eschscholtz, his figure does not represent tunga, but is more 

 probably taken from an American specimen of semidea 

 "which he supposed to be the same as also. Semidea or some-
