Danaida chrysippus \j. 



" Kt'cojded by Led. as occurring fioiii the middle of 

 j\lay throughout the summer. It seems rather ca])ricious, 

 however, in its appearance, and I first met Avith it in 1911. 

 It was then scarce, but since tluMi has been, 1 am told, 

 abundant. The larva feeds on fennel which is only locally 

 common."- — J.A.S.B,, 191G. 



" These are quite ordinary forms." — A.E.G., 191 G. 



" The records of this species are curious. It was recorded 

 in 1853 and in 1888, after which date it appears to have 

 vanished from the Island until 1911, when a few made 

 their appearance at Kyrenia near the sea. From 1912 

 to 1914 they were fairly connnon at Kyrenia, and a few 

 were to be seen inland in the plains; hi 1915 and 1910 

 very few were seen; I saw none in 1917, but they re- 

 appeared again in 1918."— G.F.W., 1918. 



Ypthiraa asterope King. [ab. inocellata Strand]. 



" I found this species fairly common on the northern 

 range. The ocelli seem to show much individual varia- 

 ti(jnV'— J.A.S.B., 191(5. (Not recorded by Led.) 



" It is the Asia Minor form as is to be expected. All 

 the specimens came from the northern range. Is it not 

 found elsewhere, and is not confined to the mountahis? 

 My specimens s(MMn to have come from altitudes between 

 1200 ft. and 3000 ft. They vary a little in spotting from 

 some without ocelli to others with three. All the Satyrids 

 vary in this way." — A. E.G., 1916. 



" Rather a rare species. I have only found it near the 

 Aghirda Pass among the rocks during March and April. 

 The ocelli show much individual variation." — G.F.W., 1918. 



Some half a dozen examples oiily have been received of 

 this species so extremely variable as to the number and 

 development of its eye-spots. It may be noted here that 

 Seitz's, " Pal. Gr.-Schm.," " I, pi. 34 a," figure is not uslero'pe, 

 but baklus. There are several figures of the African races 

 of this species I.e. vol. xiii, pi. 29. In the Asiatic dry- 

 season form, to which the Cyprian race belongs, the eye- 

 spots are very much su[)pressed. One example may be 

 called ab. inocellala Strand, as being quite destitute of eye-
