GLANVILLE FRITILLARY. 105 



tesselatccT all over the outside half with black brown markings, 

 arranged for the most part in waved cross lines, intersected 

 by longitudinal ones; the margin is yellowish cream-colour, 

 indented with the ends of the last-named lines; the base of 

 the wings is blackish brown, as is the lower edge; the black 

 maj'kings on the inner portion of the wings are hollow, the 

 fulvous-colour apparent on their centres. The hind wings arc 

 marked in a very similar manner, with the addition of a row 

 of dots inside the last black bar, between it and the next 

 one, in the middle of each fulvous intersection. 



Underneath, the fore wings are rather lighter fulvous, the 

 corner only of the transverse bars shewing through, and the 

 inner markings faintly ; the whole of the tip is broadly washed 

 with pale dull yellow, with a waved black line and a row of 

 black dots, which skirt the edge of the outside of the wings, 

 succeeded by a straw-coloured margin, intersected with black. 

 The hind wings have three broad straw-coloured bars across 

 them, the inner one at the base, and the outer on the outside 

 part; the inner one with a row of black dots along its 

 middle, the middle one with a row of the like at its inner 

 edge, and the outer one with a waved line of black; the tAvo 

 intermediate spaces are pale fulvous, the inner of them with 

 a straw-coloured patch in its centre, and the outer one with 

 darker marks of fulvous in its central divisions, which are 

 marked out with thin transverse lines. 



The caterpillar is of an intense black colour, very slightly 

 spotted with white; the head and the fore legs fulvous. 



The chrysalis is brownish, with rows of raised fulvous marks 

 on the back. 



The engraving is from specimens in my owai cabinet.
