NYMPHALIDiE. 
According to Lang, A. daphne occurs in " elevated Avoods in Southern and 
Eastern Germany, France, Spain, Switzerland, Italy, the south-west of 
Europe, Asia Minor, Armenia, the Altai, and the Amur," 
Argynnis ino.

"Expands from 1-25 to 1*75 inch. Very much resembles A. claphm,\)Vii it is smaller, the 
ground-colour of the wings is darker fulvous, the black spots are closer together, and the 
hind margins are more broadly black ; the marginal fringes are narrowly streaked with black. 
The wings are much darker at the base than in daphne. Underside : the markings of the 
hind wings greatly resemble those of daphne, but are more defined on account of the darker 
colour of the purple marbling, which is very dark violet, the light-centred spots showing out 
upon it very distinctly." {Lang, I. c.) 
Larva. "Yellowish, with brown lateral stripes, dorsal stripe brown, spines whitish yellow. Feeds 
on Urtica sirens and Sjnnm in May." {Lang, I. c.) 
Typical A. ino does not, so far as I know, occur in any part of the region 
under present consideration ; the form generally found in Japan and the 
Corea is much larger, brighter, and more strongly marked than the European 
type. Some of the Central Japanese examples agree with the large pale 
form from Amurland described by Staudinger* as var. amurensis. The 
specimens range in expanse up to 58 millim. in the male. 
Distribution. Europe, Asia Minor, Altai, Amur, Corea, Japan,

" Fringes black and whitish. Norvuros of fore wings with black linos in the male. All the wings 
bright fulvous in tho male, duller in the female. Hind margins black ; bases dusky, darkest 
in tho i'omalo ; tho markings consist of tho usual black spots and ])lack marginal lunulcs ; 
tho square spots near tho centre of tho wings are joined so as to form a narrow wavy band.
