Brenthis pales SCHIFF. var. alaskensis HOLL, Ent. News, n, 383, 1900.

Family 

 Coenonympha kodiak Edw. 

 C(enonympha kodiak EDW., Trans. Am. Ent. Soc., 2, 375, 1869. 



Seventeen examples : Kukak Bay, July 5 ; Kakiak, July 20. 



The specimens vary considerably in color, some dark-gray, some 

 partly ochraceous, and others with marked orange shading over disk 

 of fore wings (var. yukonensis Holl.), scarcely distinguishable from 

 inornata Edw. from Vancouver Island. The species is at best a local 

 form of C. typJion Rott. of Europe. 



CEneis semidea Say var. nigra Edw. 



CEneis semidea SAY var. nigra EDW., Butt., 3, pi. 9, Chion., 1894. 



One female : Kadiak, July 4. 



This form, without a distinct band on hind wings (var. nigra 

 Edw.), seems to be the prevailing one in Alaska. The U. S. Na- 

 tional Museum has a male example from Davis Inlet (Turner). 



Family PIERID.E. 

 Eurymus palaeno Linn. 

 Eurymus palano LINN., Syst. Nat., 2, 764, 1767. 



Four examples, one a male : Kukak Bay, July 5 ; Kadiak, July 20. 



Rather smaller than the European palceno and the male has the mar- 

 ginal band a little narrower, but the females have the band as broad or 

 broader than European females, thus forming connecting links to the 

 inland Alaska form which Dr. Holland calls chippewa Edw. (Ent. 

 News, XI, 418, 1900.)
