THE SUBSTITUTE. 
and cannot say whether there was 
a third brood. 
A. Cardainines. — May 27, be- 
ginning of July. Not so very 
common. I met with only a sin- 
gle specimen of the female, and 
that not till June 27. 
\_A. Galathea. — Not an in- 
habitant of this neighbourhood. 
Found it in great plenty at Lul- 
worih, Dorset, August 5.] 
L. ^(jeria. — April 23. Second 
brood, June 21; third brood, 
August 13. I am pretty confident 
here, also, as to ihe three broods, 
having marked the complete dis- 
appearance of each of the first 
two. The third was the most 
abundant, and lasted till the mid- 
dle of September. 
L. Megcera. — May 11. Second 
brood, August 1. I suppose the 
thick bar running obliquely from 
the middle of the inner margin is 
(as in Pamphila and II. Tilhonus) 
indicative of the braver sex, the 
light ones being female. I saw 
two of the males fighting, as A. 
In» is said to do. 
II. Semele. — July 3. Seems to 
enjoy cloudy weather as well as 
bright. 
H. Janira. — June 21. 
II. Tilhonus. — July 19. Some 
of the males have the white-cen- 
tered black spot near the anal 
angle as well as the females ; at 
least I have one that has these 
spots, bearing withal the mascu- 
line badge. 
II. Ilyperanthus. — July 10. 
Does not last nearly so long as 
either .lanira or Semele, although 
later in appearance. They were 
almost gone by August. The last 
seen (on August 15) was very bat- 
tered, while Janira was looking 
well on August 2G. 
C. Pamphilus. — May .30. Ano- 
ther brood, August 26. There is 
certainly scarce a day, from J une to 
October, when Pamphilus may not 
be seen ; he seems to love all 
summer months, as well as all lo- 
calities. But I suppose there are 
several broods; I could only make 
out two, the first waning by 
August, and the second lasting 
till the middle of October. 
V. Atalanta.—3nr\e 2 to begin- 
ning of July. New brood, July 9. 
I caught Alalanta on the 2nd of 
June in the depths of a wood : it 
was certainly one that had under- 
gone hybernation. I saw' it again 
on the lOlh, 12th, and 18th, 
always in some wild place. I 
don’t think any of the new brood 
come out before July 9. Found 
larvae on June 21, &c., fourteen 
days in pupa. 
V. lo . — March 26. New brood, 
July 30. Also exactly a fortnight 
in pupa. 
V. Pohjchloros. — February 16. 
New brood, July 24. I have seen 
several this autumn as well as 
last. I am inclined to think this 
a good locality for Polychloros. It 
is a familiar butterfly ; hybernated 
in the house; frequents places of 
common resort, lanes and gardens, 
like other Fane.?.?®. 
V. Urticcc. — March 10. New 
brood, June 25. I see no ground 
as yet for supposing that this has 
more than one brood in the year, 
although the larvae leave the egg 
at different periods, and so cater- 
pillars are seen at the same time 
of all ages, yet this surely arises 
from the abundance of the insects, 
and they are still all of one brood. 
A. Paphia. — July 2. A wood 
near here swarms with this mag- 
nificent Fritillary in July, and
