Guenee discusses the question of the specific identity or distinctness of 
Culias hecla (Lefebv.) and C. boothii (Curt.), which have been re 'arded bs'' 
most modern writers as belonging to the same species. He comes to the 
conclusion that they are quite distinct. C. hecla (Letebv. & Zetterst.) is 
figured by Ilerrich-Schaffer as C. bo dhii in his figs. 459 & 460, and is re- 
corded in Staudinger’s Catalogue under the same name : C. boothii is repre- 
sented by Herrich-Schiiffer in figs. 39 & 40. C. chione (Curt. ) is a variety 
of the male of C. boothii. Ann. Soc. Ent. Fr. 4 ser. tome iv. pp. 198 & 199. 
Kirby (Ent. Ann. 1865, pp. 24 & 28) also maintains the distinctness of C. 
hecla and C. boothii, and thinks that there may be a third nearly allied arctic 
species. 
The times of appearance and metamorphoses of Pieris oleracea and Colias 
philodice are described by Lintner, Proc. Ent. Soc. Phil. vol. iii. pp. 52 & 54. 
Lucas describes some small individuals of Anthocharis cardamines found in 
April at Torre delle Isole, in Sicily. They are only from three-fifths to two- 
thirds of the size of normal specimens, and dilfer also in some minute points 
of coloration. Bull. Soc. Ent. Fr. 1864, p. xiii. 
Lucas mentions the occurrence of Pieris rapes and P. daplidice among 
insects received from Pekin. Bull. Soc. Ent. Fr. 1864, p. ix. 
Bowles records the occurrence of Pieris rapes in Canada, but states that, 
from its distribution, it has evidently been introduced. Canad. Naturalist and 
Geologist, new ser. vol. i. p. 258. 
Thestias esnippe. This species is said by Lang to be subject to consider- 
able variation, apparently due to difference of altitude and other local cir- 
cumstances. The larva feeds on species of Capparis. Ent. M. Mag. vol. i. 
p. 103. 
The larvae of Pieris napi, Anthocharis cardamines, and Gonepteryx rhamni 
are described by Newman, Entomologist, vol. ii. pp. 61, 73, & 74.
