the preceding species. Expands two and a half to three inches. Found at Montreal and 

 London, but rare. 



4 26. Antinympha.— A small species, with almost black fore wings, deep black trans- 

 verse lines, and the reniform and subreniform spots generally greyish. Hind wings 

 bright yellow, inner black band reaching to internal margin, which is generally tinged 

 with brown towards the base of the wing. Expands one and three quarter to two 

 inches. Found from Montreal to London, not common. 



27. Clintonii. — Fore wings very pale grey, tinged in centre and on exterior and 

 interior margins with bluish, transverse lines, narrow. A black basal longitudinal line. 

 Hind wings yellow, marginal band not extending to interior margin, sometimes inter- 

 rupted, and ending in a detached black spot. Inner band narrow in the middle, and not 

 extending to internal margin of wing. Taken at London. Expands two inches. 



28. Polygama. — Fore wings brownish grey, basal third and interior margin darker, 

 also the subterminal space, centre of wing pale brown. Transverse lines black. Reni- 

 form spot dark, subreniform light grey. Hind wings dark yellow, inner black band 

 extending to inner margin, and also sending up a straight branch to base of wing, parallel 

 to inner margin. Expands one and a half inches. Found from Quebec to London. Larva 

 feeds on thorn. 



29. Cratsegi. — A species which much resembles polygama. The subreniform spot, 

 however, is connected with and very near the transverse posteiior line, which is narrow, 

 and has the lower tooth very small. The brown rilling of the subterminal space is absent 

 or very pale. The' larva difftrs considerably, the most prominent and valuable point of 

 distinction being found on the ninth segment, on which polygama has a slightly raised 

 told, while cratmgi has a distinct thick fleshy horn, Found at London and described by 

 Mi-. Saunders in Can. Ent., 187<'. p. 72. 



.'50. Similis, (formula Gr. and Rob.) — Fore wings dark brown, with the part outside 

 of iIm- imnsverse posterior line, (which is but little angulated,) of a lighter shade, and 

 crossed by two brown zigzag lines. Reniform spot bluish, also an oval spot at base of 

 wing. Hind wings yellow, outer black band interrupted and ending in a spot on interior 

 margin, inner line extends across wing, a blackish shade from bnse towards this line. 

 Found a1 Montreal ad London. Expands about one and a half inches. 



31. Fratercula. Primaries whit< , tinged and powdered with brown, transverse lines 

 distinct. A brown shade extends diagonally across middle of wing, ending at transverse 

 posterior line, which h&Bonly orn Idrge tooth. Hind wings yellow, outer black band ends 

 abruptly some distance from interior margin, a large black spot on anal angle. Inner 

 band narrow, irregular in shape, and curved upward near internal margin. Found in 

 Ontario, locality not given. Expands one ami three quarter inches. Larva feeds on 

 oak. 



'>.">. Arnica. \ small species. Fore wings grey, the outer third of a darker shade. 

 A whitish band crosses tin 1 wing, with the subreniform spot on its outer edge, and there 

 is a large whitish patch within the \_< posterior line, near the costa or front edge 



of i In- wing. Transverse lines black and distinct. Hind wings bright yellow, marginal 

 band wide, Ian extending only half way to interior margin, and truncated at the end. A 

 small black spot a; anal angle. The i; ine of* the band is almost a right 



angle. .V.. inntr bloxk band. Expands one and a half inches. Found at London 

 ami oilier- localities in Western Ontario. This species is subject to a good deal of 

 variation. One of the varieties, lineeUa, is also taken at London. Its fore wings differ 

 " by the darker shades being gathered along the lines, giving the insect a distinct 

 appearance as compared with the rype, while the ground colour is powdered with 

 greenish grey." (Grote, Papilio ii. 9.) The hind wings are exactly similar in both type 

 and variety. Larva feeds on oak. 



In addition to the foregoing thirty-two species, the following are included in the 

 published list of the Toronto Natural History Society: viduata, Guen, obscura, Strk., 

 Levettei, Grote,"/Mnc<ura 1 Walker, Aholibah, Strk., innubens, Guen, and var scintillans, 

 G. and R.. ma, Ed., amasia, A. and S., pr&dara, G. and R., grynea, 



Cramer, grit. His, Ed. Want of space, however, precludes us from describing these species 

 which, no doubt, are of rare oecurrence in Canada.
