8 SALMON FLIES 



The essential quality which determines char-

 are put on.

(b) The Akroyd a Dee strip -wing with a

(c) The Jungle Hornet a wingless pattern 

 or grub with a crewel or Berlin wool body. 

 (See Plate VII.) 



Each one of these is typical of particular 

 and distinct groups of pattern. 



Style, however, is invariably referable to one

 relative quantity of material with which, or (ii.) 

 the style of hook on which, a fly is dressed. 



On Plate II. examples are shown which 

 illustrate this. 



The two lowest patterns are Claret Jays. 

 Both are dressed on precisely similar hooks, 

 and with precisely similar materials ; but it
