46. GBAPTA INTERRAGATIONIS Doubl. Vanessa interraga- 

 tionis Harr. Roadsides ; not abundant, more common

47. GRAPTA C-ARGENTEUM Kirby. Vanessa Progne Harr. 

 non Cramer. Roads through woods ; rather common, 

 the most abundant of the Graptas throughout New Eng- 

 land ; July, August ; larva feeds on the elm. 



I have taken four specimens of a Grapta at the White 

 Mountains from the valleys to the summit, which may 

 possibly belong to this species, but seems to indicate the 

 presence of a new species ; it is fully as small as, if not 

 smaller than, G. C-argenteum, its upper surface is like that 

 of G. Faunus, while its under surface is more like G. 

 C-argenteum, but differs from that in having the broad ashy 

 band quite hoary, nearly white, and extending also with 

 equal distinctness across the secondaries ; the discal spot 

 of secondaries is a white L with both limbs nearly equal 

 similar and straight.
