BUTTERFLIES COLLECTED IN ■CALIFORNIA. 465 



There is a specimen in Mr. Godman's collection agreeing with 

 the male first mentioned above in having six distinct ocelli on the 

 under surface of the hind wings. 



4. Satteus silvesteis, W. S. JEdwards, Proc. Acad. Nat. Sci. 

 Pliil. 1861, p. 162. Colusa and Siskiyou Counties in July. 



Three male examples of this species I found labelled with a 

 MS. name proposed some years since by Mr, W. H. Edwards, but 

 subsequently abandoned ; he writes that " It refers to a small 

 race and slightly pale form of 8. silvestris, Edw. The drawing 

 you send me is the form I allude to, but it is hardly different 

 enough from the type of silvestris to warrant a name." 



5. OEneis iduna. — Chionobas iduna, W. H. Edwards, Butt. 

 N. Am. ii. CJiion. pi. 1. figs. 1-4 (1874). One male taken in 

 Mendocino County, California, and a female in Mr. Grodman's 

 collection. 



IS YMPHALINJE. 



6. Aegtnnis monticola, Behr, Proc. Cal. Acad. 1862, p. 172 ; 

 Edioards, Butt. N. Amer. i. Ao^g. pi. 8 (1868) . Mendocino County, 

 May and June. 



This agrees with examples identified by Dr. Boisduval as 

 A. zerene. 



7. Abgynnis egleis, Boisduval, Lep. Cal. p. 59 (1869). A 

 specimen from Mendocino County. 



I have named this insect by comparison with two wings of 

 Boisduval's species forwarded by the author in April 1872. I can 

 detect no difference between this species and A. Belirensii as 

 figured by Mr. "W. H. Edwards, with which it will probably prove 

 to be synonymous. 



Mr. Grodman also forwarded the following species, presented 

 to him by Lord Walsingham. 



7 a. Aegtnnis atlantis, Edwards, Butt. N. Am. i. pi. 5. 

 figs. 1-3. California. 



7 5. Aegtnnis efrtnome ?, j&i?M;ffr<?5, Butt. N.Am. ii. pi. 1. 

 figs. 1-4 (1875). California. 



The example received from Mr. Grodman only difters from the 

 figures by Mr. Edwards in the greater width of the submarginal 

 spots : it is also slightly larger. 



8. Aegtnnis netadensis, Edivards, Titans. Amer. Ent. Soc. 

 1870, p. 14; Butt. N. Amer. i. Arg. pi. 14 (1871). Tehama 

 County, California, in July. 



Labelled as "^. macaria?, Edw.," a species unknown to me.
