Land 3. 8. 91, a few specimens have been brought back from 

 Jameson Land 1.8.1900. 



It does not appear to be rare on the East coast, from 

 which place Aurivillius (10.1135) also mentions that it was 

 found at Clavering Ö, Кар Bennet, Dronning Augustas Dal, 

 Mackenzie Bugt 3.7. 1900 and Кар Frankh'n 24.8. 1900. 



Ge о graph ileal distribution: In the Danish collection 

 the species is only represented from East-Greenland, but M с 

 L ас hl an ^) also mentions it hawing been found in West- 

 Greenland between 8 Г 20' and 8 Г 50' N. Besides Greenland it is 

 also known from Labrador, Northern Lapland and Finmarken. 



Aurivillius mentions and describes two Argyymis larvae 

 from East-Greenland; as neither were bred it is impossible to 

 say to which species they belong. Both belong to that group 

 of Argynnis larvæ which have the spines on the first segment 

 not longer than those on the following segments. The larva 

 which Aurivillius believes to be A. charidea var. arctica is 

 faibly marked with brown and has five light lines. 



The other larva which is believed to be A. polaris is also 

 marbled with brown and has a fine light medial line. At the 

 spines on the two first segments are two small black spots and 

 along the sides below the spiracles is a broad light side line.
