COLIAS SEMPER!. 
Under surface, primaries yellow, powdered with black along the costa; a small black 
discal point. Inferiors yellowish green, a small silver discal spot surrounded with pink which 
extends in a long dash towards the margin, another dash of same color runs from base outside 
along side of the median nervu re ; a sub-marginal row of pink spots, the one nearest the 
inner margin being the largest; costa and fringes of all wings rosy. 
Habitat. Honduras, Panama, New Granada. 
Ab. 9 SEMPERI same size as the preceding. 
Antennae and head rosy ; body black above, yellowish white beneath. 
Upper surface, ground color greenish white; ornamentation of primaries same as in 
normal form. On secondaries the marginal border is little more than a line; no discal spot; 
costa and ciliae of all wings rose colored. 
Under surface, primaries yellowish with a white central patch ; discal point small. 
Secondaries greenish yellow marked as in the ordinary 9 form; cilite and costa as above. 
Habitat. Insagasuga. 
Reakert described a cf C. Dimera and this form of the 9 under the name of C. Semper! , 
and inasmuch as the name of Dimera has precedence I propose to retain that of Semperi for 
this white 9 form, but for the life of me, although I have read the description and possess 
Reakirt’s types, I cannot tell where he described it, probably it is the Proc. Acad. Nat. 
Sciences of Philadelphia, which work I unfortunately do not possess, and can only have 
occasional access to by going to Philadelphia, as our town here has no library containing 
works on the natural sciences, which is one of the many disadvantages incidental to residing 
in a provincial city, the expense precludes too frequent visits to consult the libraries of Phila- 
delphia or New York, and the Philadelphia & Reading Railroad Company would as soon 
think of running their locomotives Juggernaut style over the body of a naturalist as to be 
guilty of the folly of giving him a free pass over their lines, although to give them their 
due, I believe, as au extraordinary favor, under all kinds of restrictions, they do something 
of the sort for Clergymen.
