" The male icorus are a fairly even lot. The spring brood 

 has light underside sometimes without blue scaling. Two 

 were only 21 mm. in expanse, too large by 1 mm. to be 

 called ab. minor. The blue-tinted females of the early 

 brood are interesting. Some have bluish-white lunules on 

 the basal sides of the orange spots and are very beautiful. 

 The best come from S. Hilarion in April. The summer- 

 brood females have no blue scales. Ab. celina of the male 

 with black spots between the veins at margin on hind- wing 

 was not sent. This is generally found in late broods in 

 the South. In one male the antemarginal band of spots 

 on the hind-wing miderside is missing."^ — A.E.G., 1916. 



" A very common insect everywhere having three broods, 

 in March, May and September. Females with blue onlv 

 occur in the first brood." G.F.W., 1918. 



The series were taken in March, April, May, June and 

 July, an odd female in September and a male in October. 

 There are only a few females and these are in the May, 

 June and July series. The males are remarkably uniform, 

 even the undersides show only the smallest variation in 

 general coloration and marking. The few females are 

 practically identical, there is only the merest trace of blue 

 powdering towards the base of the wings upperside. One 

 female is ab. minor Ckrll., just 20 mm. in expanse, and 

 another had the usually orange spots on both upper and 

 under side changed to yellow. There was a tendency in 

 the race to the ab. icarinus Scriba, form, in that the spots 

 basad from the discoidal on the fore-wing underside were 

 frequently ill-developed, very small, and in a few speci- 

 mens the lower spot was absent. It was usually smaller 

 than the upper one.
