62 THE ENTOMOLOGIST S RECORD. 
Three splashed with blue on left side lower wing. 
Four splashed with blue on right side upper wing. 
Sixty-six ab. roystonensis (Gynandromorph and asymmetrical ; 
one side with small wings; these smaller wings containing 
“‘ androconia ’’). 
Thirty-two with both right side wings smaller and contain- 
ing blue male androconia. 
Twelve with both left side wings smaller and containing blue 
male androconia. 
One with right side lower wing smaller and containing blue 
male androconia. 
Two with left and lower wings smaller and containing blue 
male androconia. 
Five with left and upper wings smaller and containing blue 
male androconia. 
Thirteen with right and upper wings smaller and contain- 
ing blue male androconia. 
One with right side lower wing smaller and containing blue 
male androconia, and left side upper wing smaller and 
containing blue male androconia. 
The last specimen I lent to Dr. Cockayne, for it is such a rare and 
curious form. He has given it a close microscopical examination and 
reports as follows :—‘‘ Unique specimen as far as my knowledge goes. 
~Gynandromorph. Blue scales on left forewing and opposite hindwing, 
the blue scaled wings reduced in size; coarse hair scales and andro- 
conia with blue scales on small forewing and androconia on small 
hindwing.” 
As far as I was able to gather very few of these asymmetrical 
forms were taken by the other collectors, in fact unless you examine 
each specimen very carefully they are easily passed over, especially by 
the ordinary collector, who is not so keen on these misshapen “blues.” 
I think all the known aberrations and variations have now been taken 
from this Herts locality, with an addition of several new forms. 
I never get tired of the “ Blues,” and long for August to return as 
I am keener now than ever.

The Upper Engadine in 1914.

(Continued from vol. xxvii., p. 226.) 
The morning of July 31st broke dull with slight rain, but by the 
time the early meal was over fine weather seemed to be foretold, and 
we started for what turned out to be one of the delightful days of a 
holiday in the High Alps. Our object was to traverse the Rosege Valley 
from Pontresina to the glacier, picking up what could be found, but 
especially to keep an eye for Brenthis thore. Emerging from the station 
of the well-known village, we took the road south between the huge 
pine-covered bases of Piz Rosatsch on the right and Piz Chalchagn on 
the left, known respectively as Muottas da Celerina and Muottas da 
Pontresina. The tree level on the latter is a first rate spot for Colias
