The females in each family were again all hippocoon, and 

 it could be said generally that family IV resembled family I 

 in the characteristics described, while families V and VI 

 resembled families II and III. 



Parent IV had a much larger white patch on the hind- 

 wing than V or VI, and the female offspring of IV inherited 

 this character, as in parent I and its family (see pp. xvi, xvii). 



The white spot in the forewing cell of the female offspring 

 was very uniform throughout the families IV, V and VI, 

 although a minute apical spot was separated off from the tip 

 or distal end of the marking in one female of family IV, and 

 in one of VI, but in no others. In one female of IV an hour- 

 glassdike constriction nearly divided the marking. As regards 

 the sub-marginal band of the hindwing of the males, the 

 numbers were not sufficient to render a good comparison 

 possible ; but there was no doubt that the males were, as a 

 whole, more heavily marked than those of family I (see p. xvi). 

 The sub-marginal band was almost continuous in the two 

 males of family V, those of IV and VI being less heavily 

 marked, but presenting much variation in the degree of 

 development of the two gaps in the band. 



The constitution of the families was as follows : — 

 Female parent, hippocoon, captured May 1, 1912; oviposited 

 May 1 and 2 ; died May 4.
