almost impossible to see them, and then the collector will have 

 to be careful in the use of his net or he will ruin his weapon 

 on account of the thorny and scrubby nature of the vegetation. 

 I managed to take about twenty-five of these insects this year 

 and only one female. 



This species was described from one female taken by R. H. 

 Stretch at Tehachepi Pass, and as far as I know, has not been 

 noticed since or the male described. 



Pamphila sabuleti var. tecumseh n. var.— Expands ^ inch. Differs 

 from typical P. sabuleti by being considerably smaller and in having the 

 black markings more extended. On the lower side the markings are not 

 so heavy. 



Habitat. — High Sierras of California. 



The types which came from the lyittle Crabtree Meadow near 

 Mt. Whitney, collected by Mr. Daggett, are deposited in the 

 California Academy of Sciences. There are specimens in the 

 latter museum collected by Hoffman, of the Geological Survey, 

 many years ago. 



This subspecies can be easily recognized from the typical 

 form by its much smaller size, which is constant in a long 

 series. 



Anatolmis regains, n. sp. — Expands ij^ inches. Upper side of prim- 

 aries entirely poppy red, with the exception of a black fringe extending 

 from the outer third of the costa around to the inner angle. Secondaries 

 poppy red with a trace of carmine, the black marginal band extending 

 from the apex of the costal margin to the inner edge, where it occupies a 

 little less than one-half of the wing, along the inner edge it occupies 

 about one-third of the wing. The underside is same color as the upper 

 but paler. Abdomen black or dark purple, also legs. Thorax poppy 

 red. Antennae purple. 



Habitat. — Sierra Madre Mountains, Los Angeles Co., Cal. 



Type in collection of the California Academy of Sciences. 



Described from one specimen taken on Mt. Wilson June 25, 

 1902, flying along the trail through the brush ; another was 

 taken but it escaped. Mr. Brown took several in Milliards 

 canon in the same range. 



This species differs from grotei in not having any orange on 

 the wings and in having the black margin very much narrower. 

 A. fulgens has the secondaries almost entirely black and is 

 smaller.
