Series C. — Parent a pale ohscura, captured in the 

 forest just above lake level, July 9, 1912 (only laid one egg, 

 on July 9). 



Bemarks. — The parent is more worn than B, but 

 apparently the chief pale area of both wings was much 

 less pronounced than in the latter. The basal area of 

 hindwing under surface is free from the umber brown 

 marking.

 No umber marking on under surface. 



Series D. — Parent ohscnra-hohleyi, captured on flowers 

 at the edge of the forest, July 15, 1912 (laid 13 ova). 



One egg shrivelled, one failed to hatch, one larva died 

 before first moult, another was a " wanderer " and died from 

 exhaustion, another died during first moult and one after. 

 Result seven pupae only. 



Bemarks. — The parent is worn like C, but its pale areas 

 had been apparently much like those of B, showing like 

 the latter a tendency towards the female hobleyi in the 

 emphasis of the white bar. The umber marking is 

 present, but faded, and it is difficult to estimate the 

 original development of this marking.
