This fpecies feeds on nellies, chickweed, plantain, grafs, &c. 

 The Caterpillars very much referable thofe of the large Garden Tiger 

 Moth*, except in f.ze ; they change into chryfalis about the middle 

 of April, and appear in the winged ftate the latter end of May. 



We have not found this Infeft fo plenty as the Ruby Tiger Motht, 

 and it is infinitely more fcarce than the great Garden Tiger Moth, 

 figured in the early part of this Work. 



A variety of this fpecies, with crimfon under wings, is found in 

 the Eaft Indies and in America. The under wings of the female, 

 In the European fpecimens, are much redder than in the male.
