Yphthima. In his monographic revision of this genus (Ent. 
Trans. 3rd ser. vol. ii.) Hewitson enumerates 24 species, 8 
of which are described as new. The following known species 
are referred .by him to the genus, characterized in greater or 
less detail and partly figured : — 
Hipparchia asterope (Klug) = T'i norma (Westw.)> p. 283; Eap. arctouh 
(Fab.), ibid.; Hipparchia philomela (Hiibn.), p. 284; Satyrm nareda, (Koll.), 
ibid., pi. 17. figs. 6 & 7 ; /S', chenu (Gu6r.), p. 285 ; Hipparchia stellera (Eschsch.) 
= Yphthima semper a (Feld.), p. 285 ; Papilio haldus (Fab.) = P. lara (Don.), 
p. 286 ; P. lysandra (Oram.), p. 287 ; Yphthima amphithea (M(^n^tr.), p. 289 ; 
Y. pandocus (Moore), p. 290, pi. 18. fig. 12 ; Satyrus motschulskijl (Brem.), 
p. 290 ; Yphthima sakra (Moore), ibid., pi. ik fig. 18 ; Y. hyagriva (Moore), 
p. 291, pi. 18. fig. 11 ; Y. narasingha (Moore), ibid., fig. 19; Satyrii^ aphnius 
(God.), p. 292, pi. 18. figs. 8 & 9 ; and S. tamatavce (Boisd.), p. 293, 
Satyrus egeria (Linn.). A peculiar variety of this species is figured by 
Lodeesen, Tijdschr. voor Entom. 1865, pi. 2. fig. 1. 
A variety (caucasica) of Satyrm pelopea^ from Grusia, is described and 
figured by Lederer, Wien. ent. Mon. Bd. viii. p. 168, taf. 3. fig, 6. 
Satyrus megcera. A dwarf specimen of this species, 8^ lines in expanse, is 
recorded by Albert MUller, Ent. M. Mag. ii. p. 117. 
Behr (Proc. Calif. Acad. Nati Sci, vol. iii. pp. 163-166) enumerates the 
species of this subfamily foimd in California, and remarks upon the compa- 
rative distribution of the group in Europe and California. The known 
species referred to are Chionohas nevadensis (Boisd. MS.), Satyrus sthenele 
(Boisd,), sylvestris (Edw.), ariadne (Boisd.), and Ccenonympha galciciina 
(Boisd.). A new species of Satyrus is characterized. Thus only three genera 
are represented in California, anc^ the species are very few, whUst Europe 
possesses seven genera with numerous s|)ecies. 
Notes on the habits and inode of occurrence of the following species of 
this group as observed by Lang in the North-west Himalayas are published 
by Moore (Proc. Zook Soc. 1865, pp. 498-502) : — Dehiseuropa (Fab.), rohria 
(Fab.), and verma (Koll.), Enopepulaha (Moore), Lasiommata schakra (Koll.) 
and satrictis (Dbld.), Satyrus swaha (Koll.), saraswati (Koll.), and avatar a 
(Moore), Hipparchia parysatis (Koll.), Erehia annada (Moore) and scanda 
(Koll.), Yphthima sakra (Moore), and Libythea myrrha (God.). 
Prittwitz (7 c, pp. 310-311) records seven species of this group (one new) 
as occurring at the Corcovado. The known species are Hceteran ereis, Eu~ 
ptychia ocyrrhoe^ clueria, and hysesj and Neonympha camerta and sosyhius. 
Erehia medea. An hermaphrodite form of this species, having the left side 
male and the right female, but the abdomen almost as in the normal (S , is 
described by Rogenhofer, Verb, zool.-bot. Ges. in Wien, xv. p. 613. 
Pristo has notes on the habits of Arge galathea in Entomologist, ii. p. 148,
