PAPILIONID^l 9 



It was discovered in the crevice of a rough stone 

 wall. Five days later it began to pupate, spinning 

 itself up amongst the leaves of a plant of Saxifrage, 

 which I had previously placed in the breeding-cage 

 for that purpose. 



In another five days the pupa was finished. 



The chrysalid itself could easily be seen, between 

 its rudimentary covering of web and leaves. 



On July 27 th of the same summer, it emerged from 

 the chrysalis state. 



JP. Mnemosyne. 



TIMES OF APPEARANCE. June and July. 



HABITAT. According to the late A. Risso, Saint- 

 Dalmas ; Fenestre; the "Cinq Lacs" (Five Lakes); but 

 I have never had any authentic account of its capture 

 from entomologists, nor have I ever taken it myself. 



LARVA. On Corydalis Halleri, in April and May. 



PUPA. Somewhat resembles that of Apollo, 

 spinning up among leaves.
