80 THE ENTOMOLOGIST. 



A. lathonia was common, but not abundant, and was difficult 

 to get in really good condition. The males were greatly in 

 excess of the females. The grass banks and paths which 

 separate the fields, in fact any bit of short grass, was almost sure 

 to yield one or two. I remember one exception, having taken 

 within a few yards no less than five, one of which was the 

 largest female I ever saw. 



The males of A. aglaia were abundant from July 4th, while 

 the females were comparatively rare, although later on they 

 became more common. Localities, Marienbad road and cemetery. 



A. niobe. — We secured a few specimens of this beautiful 

 species on the Marienbad road, on July 10th ; and the var. eris 

 was to be met with about the same date in the same locality, as 

 well as beyond the cemetery. 



A, adippe corresponds with A. aglaia in localit}-, but rather 

 later. 



Of A. paphial took one specimen near St. Leonhardts, and 

 another near the Echo ; but the best locality was the Marienbad 

 road, just before and beyond the spot where I took A. iris. First 

 seen July 7 th; still in capital condition when we left. 



Melanargia galathea was abundant round a pond near 

 St. Leonhardts. It was first seen on June 30th in considerable 

 numbers, also later, on the Marienbad road. We took one 

 slight variety, with only three, instead of four, spots on the 

 under side of the hind wing. 



Erebia medusa was met with in fair numbers just beyond the 

 cemetery, and to the left of St. Leonhardts. 



E. ceme. — One specimen onl} r . 



Satyrus alcyone was just coming out when we were leaving. I 

 took three on the Marienbad road, July 12th. 



Pararge liiera was fairly plentiful near the cemetery, though 

 difficult to get in good condition. First seen June 25th, when 

 the flight appeared to be getting over. 



P. cegeria var. cegerides was observed on June 30th, but we 

 never took one in good condition, nor saw the type, P. cegeria. 



Epinephele janira was common everywhere. 



E. hyperanthus was equally abundant. The most marked 

 variety was a male with two spots on the under side of the 

 fore wing. 



Coenonympha iphis was very common everywhere from 

 June 25th.
