Parkside, Blackwood, Yorketown, Mount Gawler, Belair, cfec. ; 

 common September to ISIarch. Feeds on stinging nettle {Urtica 

 urens). I have bred them from the chrysalis in November, and 

 also in March, so that it would appear to have two l^roods during 

 the year.

Common at Parkside, Woodside, A¥aterfall (lully, Belair, kc.^ 

 from September to March, frequenting dry ground, especially 

 those of a red-clay nature, the colour of which no doubt pro- 

 tects the species from observation. Sometimes they are very 

 dM'arfed in appearance. I have specimens less than one inch in 

 expanse. In Tepper's list the name is incorrectly spelt as 

 " Junonisa."
