Below, primaries of the same yellow as the superior surface, but 

 somewhat griseous, through the presence of scattered black scales over 

 the apical half, abundant along the costal edge ; the inner border is 

 free of them, and of a paler yellow ; the costa is of the same pink as 

 the fringe, and the spot at the extremity of the cell is transverse, black, 

 with a pink or yellow conspicuous centre ; — secondaries^ greenish-yel- 

 low, griseous, with black scales, which are less numerous, in a faint, 

 broad band along the outer margin, which is thus of a slightly lighter 

 tint ; the fringe of pink extends around the costal border as a narrow 

 edging ; there is generally a slight cluster of reddish-brown scales just 

 beneath the extremity of the costal nervure ; the spot at the tip of the 

 cell is small, circular, of pink scales, deepening in tint from the centre, 



— where there are mixed a few white scales, — so that the edge is 

 sometimes brownish ; it is almost invariably single, but occasionally 

 with a secondary one towards the outer angle of the wing ; there is a 

 small spot of pink scales at the base of the wings. 



? . Above, primaries very pale dirty white, with a slight greenish- 

 yellow tinge ; costal border somewhat griseous, with dark scales ; the 

 apex is occupied by a dark brownish spot, having the inner border ill- 

 defined, sometimes so large as to extend half way to the termination of 

 the cell, and reaching the internal angle as a narrow band ; when it is 

 large there are several streaks of the color of the disc towards its inner 

 border, placed between the nervures, generally broadest toward the 

 base, and acuminate toward the inner border ; the spot at the extremity 

 of the cell is faint or absent, a little transverse, brownish, with a pale 

 centre ; the costal edge is pink, as is also the rather narrow fringe ; 



— secondaries, of the color of the disc of primaries, but with more of 

 a greenish tinge, with a very faint broad border wanting it ; a few 

 blackish scales cluster around the tips of the nervures at the outer 

 angle, where the pink fringe is interrupted paler by bands. 



Below, primaries as in the male, except in having the yellow re- 

 placed by a very pale greenish-white, save at the tip, where there is a 

 spot of yellow ; — secondaries as in the male ; head, antennae, and palpi 

 above, pink ; palpi below, yellow ; lower side of club of antennae, yel- 

 lowish ; legs pink ; expanse of wings, two inches. 8^,5 ? . Caribou 

 Island, Straits of Belle Isle, Labrador. (A. S. Packard, Jr.) 



COLIAS INTERIOR (nov. sp.) 



$ . Above, primaries lemon-yellow, as in C. lahradorensis, but 

 lacking the greenish tinge, and so of a brighter tint, much as in the 

 male of C. philodice ; costal edge dark pink; marginal band black, 

 narrow, except at tip ; the inner border of band with a deep curve, 

 extending along costal border to the tip of the costal nervure, not 

 extending far inward along the inner border, the deepest portion
