  in 
  the 
  

   Kingdom 
  of 
  Saxony 
  (Schutze), 
  in 
  July 
  in 
  Bavaria 
  (Schmid). 
  In 
  

   Lower 
  Austria, 
  it 
  is 
  noted 
  as 
  occurring 
  in 
  July 
  and 
  August 
  in 
  

   Carinthia 
  from 
  the 
  end 
  of 
  June 
  to 
  the 
  end 
  of 
  July, 
  and 
  in 
  Carniola 
  at 
  

   the 
  end 
  of 
  June 
  (Mann) 
  ; 
  in 
  the 
  Tyrol 
  we 
  found 
  it 
  late 
  in 
  July 
  on 
  the 
  

   Mendel 
  Pass, 
  and 
  throughout 
  the 
  first 
  fortnight 
  of 
  August 
  in 
  the 
  Cortina 
  

   district. 
  In 
  Switzerland, 
  it 
  occurs 
  in 
  June 
  at 
  Zurich, 
  but 
  in 
  July 
  in 
  

   the 
  Bernese 
  Alps, 
  and 
  on 
  the 
  Simplon. 
  In 
  Belgium, 
  it 
  is 
  recorded 
  as 
  

   occurring 
  in 
  July 
  and 
  August 
  (Lambillion). 
  In 
  the 
  lowlands 
  of 
  France 
  

   — 
  Tancarville, 
  Fontainebleau 
  Forest, 
  etc. 
  — 
  the 
  species 
  occurs 
  through- 
  

   out 
  June, 
  but, 
  in 
  the 
  Savoy 
  mountains, 
  it 
  is 
  well-out 
  in 
  mid- 
  August, 
  

   and 
  is 
  possibly 
  on 
  the 
  wing 
  until 
  the 
  end 
  of 
  the 
  month. 
  In 
  the 
  more 
  

   northerly 
  parts 
  of 
  Scandinavia 
  also, 
  the 
  species 
  occurs 
  in 
  late 
  July 
  and 
  

   August. 
  Zeller 
  observes 
  (Linn. 
  Ent., 
  vi., 
  p. 
  373) 
  that 
  he 
  took 
  the 
  

   species 
  from 
  late 
  June 
  to 
  early 
  August 
  near 
  Glogau 
  ; 
  on 
  the 
  Seefelder 
  

   he 
  caught 
  two 
  $ 
  s 
  on 
  July 
  15th, 
  and 
  received 
  a 
  somewhat 
  brownish- 
  

   grey 
  Swedish 
  $ 
  from 
  Zetterstedt, 
  labelled 
  " 
  Furillen, 
  July 
  21st, 
  

   1841 
  " 
  ; 
  he 
  also 
  notes 
  a 
  worn 
  J 
  from 
  the 
  Sommering 
  (from 
  Fischer 
  

   von 
  Eoslerstamm's 
  collection), 
  taken 
  on 
  August 
  6th 
  ; 
  he 
  concludes, 
  

   therefore, 
  that 
  there 
  is 
  only 
  one 
  brood, 
  which 
  emerges 
  through 
  

   several 
  months 
  and 
  lasts 
  longer 
  on 
  the 
  mountains 
  than 
  in 
  the 
  

   plains. 
  The 
  following 
  details 
  will 
  give 
  some 
  idea 
  of 
  the 
  range 
  in 
  the 
  

   time 
  of 
  appearance 
  of 
  the 
  species.
