The two forms of this species, protodice, Bd.-Lec. and vernalis, Edw., 

 are found all over the State, but they are much less common than P. 

 rapce, L. It has almost the same habits as the latter, but is more often 

 found at a distance from cultivated grounds. It winters in the pupa 

 state, first appearing as imago about April 15, -and may be taken as 

 late as November 1. Food, plants, cabbage, turnip and sweet alyssum. 

 There are three broods each season, and in Vigo County, in the spring 

 of 1891, large numbers of the first brood were seen mating on April 18.
