FIELD AND FOREST. 87 



out, and on secondaries the second row of silver spots is indicated by 

 much paler spots 'than the ground ; the space between the two parallel 

 lines obscured at t the apical angle of each wing ; the markings as in 

 the male, but on the disks all the lines are slighter ; under side as in 

 the male, the ground color of secondaries paler, and the basal area 

 more decidely brown. 



From three % one 9 sent me by Henry Edwards, Esq., and taken 

 at Havilah, California. 



With these were 2 £ resembling the others except in the entire absence 

 rsence of silver from the lower surface ; in one example the black mark- 

 ings on both wings ; both marginal and extra discal are obliterated, as 

 -all the black edgings to the spots on secondaries ; in the other the mar- 

 ginal lines and lanceolate spots are faint, but the edgings to the silver 

 spots aredistinct ; in this example the basal area of secondaries is of a 

 darker brown than in the typical Macaria examined, and of uniform 

 tint, with little or no mottling of buff. These unsilvered individuals 

 find their counterpart in occasional examples of Eurynome from 

 Colorado. 



Charts Australis. 



Male. — Expands .9. 



Size and shape of Nemesis, primaries long and pointed. Upper side 

 dark ferruginous overlaid with brown, the sub-color only clearly appear- 

 ing on the hind margins, and obscurely on the disks ; a fine sub-mar- 

 ginal plumbaginous line crosses both wings, preceded by a common 

 row of black dots, and next by another plumbaginous line, irregular 

 and somewhat wavy ; on the disks a black line crosses both wings, 

 bent on the middle of primaries and irregularly convex on upper part 

 of secondaries ; between this and base are five or six irregularly con- 

 centric black lines ; fringes long, fuscous except for a few white hairs 

 on middle of secondaries, also more largely on middle of primaries 

 and at either angle of same. 



Under side orange-fulvous ; the black lines and dots repeated, the 

 former reduced and macular ; the plumbaginous lines repeated and 

 heavy.
