PAPILIONID^E. 257 



Beyond this is an imperfect band of fulvous spots, in continua- 

 tion of those on the primaries ; the upper ones faint and indis- 

 tinct, and two of the lower ones prominent and nearly round ; 

 the last small and linear. The inner margin is edged with 

 fulvous, having a yellowish tinge which encroaches on the outer 

 brown marginal band at the anal angle. The fringe of the 

 secondaries is dotted with dull white. The primaries below 

 are fulvous, with a single wavy, brown line across the wing a 

 short distance within the outer margin ; base yellowish, costal 

 margin sprinkled with dark brown atoms, and a streak of the 

 same along the middle of the wing near the hind margin. At 

 the tip is a j'ellowish patch, occupying the space between 

 the brown line and the margin, and within this, one of silvery 

 white nearly equal in size. Below the white are three indis- 

 tinct, yellowish patches, the lower one extending to the outer 

 margin ; a large patch of yellow at the lower corner where the 

 outer and hinder margins meet. The secondaries below are 

 yellowish from the base to near the middle, with streaks and 

 spots of brown ; the yellowish color extending down the inner 

 to the hinder .margin. Beyond the middle the wings are 

 silvery white, sprinkled with yellow and brown scales, divided 

 by the brown veins and partially crossed by an irregular streak 

 of brown. There are also two brown patches on the hind mar- 

 gin, the smaller one nearly round and occupying the space 

 between the first and second median venules ; the larger being 

 irregular and resting on the median vein, and extending across 

 the third to the second subcostal venule. It was taken near 

 Grimsby, Ontario Count} r , Canada." 



Melitcea (Enone Scudder is rarely found in Maine and Mas- 

 sachusetts ; it is pale fulvous above, with blackish brown 

 markings, and expands from one and three-fifths to one and 

 four-fifths inches. M. Harrisii Scudder may be readily distin- 

 guished from M. (Enone by the under surface of the hind wings 

 being cinnamon-red, with bands and spots of white margined 

 with black. It expands one and three-fourths inches and is 

 found in New England, though rather a rare species. The larva 

 has been reared in Norway, Maine, by Mr. S. I. Smith. It feeds 

 on Diplopappua umbellatus, pupating from the middle to the 

 last of June, and remaining in the chrysalis state from ten to
