88 THE ENTOMOLOGIST. 



Among plants may be mentioned the rare Cytisus horniflorus, 

 two species of Gentian (Gentiana cruciata and G. pneumonanthe) , 

 the latter flourishing on dry sandstone ! Numerous orchids : 

 Aster amellus, Physalis alkekengi, and many others. 



Among the Lepidoptera are Golias myrmidone, Thecla acacice, 

 Lyccena alcon, L. cor etas var. decolorata, Syrichthus lavatera, 

 Hesperia sidce, and others. 



Finally, there is the forest region, which at one time ap- 

 proached, and, in fact, mingled with, the two previously men- 

 tioned types of country. Forest still clothes much of the Eez 

 Mountains and some of the more flat country, and two small 

 patches exist on the sandy hills. The forests are all used as 

 grazing places for cows and pigs, with the result that the flora 

 is gradually changing, and most of the Lepidoptera are exceed- 

 ingly rare. 



Nep>tis aceris, Argynnis laodice, Satyrus circe, S. dry as, Erebia 

 blandina, Epinephele tithonus, and Heteropterus morpheas may all 

 be cited as typical of the forest region, as well as some others. 



Ninety-eight species and local races are recorded in this list, 

 which is almost certainly very incomplete, as many widely dis- 

 tributed insects are missing from it.
