25. Lemonias gabbi Behr (167). 



Common during its season (spring) in the canons about the 

 city. It likes to fly close to the ground along the dry washes in the bot- 

 tom of the canon and is comparatively easy to capture. 



26. Thessalia wrighti Edwards (176). 



Rare. July 4, 1906, I took two females at Jacumba. One male 

 was taken near the city some time in June. Early in July of this year 

 Mr. Geo. Field took two female specimens at Jacumba. So far as I 

 am aware these are the only records for San Diego County. 



27. Chlosyne californica Wright. 



This is also a rare species. I have one specimen taken July 4, 

 1906, in a small canon between Jacumba and Mountain Springs. It is 

 properly a desert species. 



28. Polygonia satyrus Edwards (207). 



29. Polygonia satyrus marsyas Edwards (207*2). 



Wright says : " The West Coast Graptas {Polygonia) appear to go 

 in pairs of species or that two similar species of each type are found, 

 these two closely resemble each other, and being wi ely different from 

 any others." This will probably account for the finding of the above 

 two (?) species last summer in the willow copses near Campo. They 

 were also seen at the foot of Volcan Mt. 



30. Eu vanessa ant iopa Linn* us (217). 



Common here as everywhere. Where willow grows there antiopa 

 abounds. 



31. Vanessa atalanta Linnaeus (219). 



This cosmopolitan is found but sparingly throughout this region. 

 An occasional specimen may be taken in the canons, but it is rather 

 difficult to capture. 



32. Vanessa huntera Fabricius (220). 



Quite common in the canons about the city. It may often be 

 found flitting about some dry, barren spot near a bush or tree on the 

 brow of a hill. In such places it is easily captured. When flying 

 through the weeds or among flowers it is wary and not easily taken. 

 It occurs sparingly in the mountains. 



33. Vanessa cardui Linnaeus (221). 



Very common throughout the region, occurring in early spring and 

 late summer. During the spring of 1907 large numbers were seen
