Campbellpore, 30th June, 6th, 7th, and 25th July, 1885. 



The specimen last enumerated is unusually dwarfed and dark, 

 but does not appear to differ in any other respect from ordinary 

 examples ; it is a little rubbed, and consequently the black markings 

 are partly obliterated, which may account for its being differently 

 numbered by Major Yerbury.
