known varieties, it forms a dentation in each of these cellules. In the apical part of the margin of forewings 
kolleri has only 2 arched lines, a large one over cellule 6 and 7 and a rudimentary one indicated in cellule 5. — 
d'-ab. abeli Gschw. has a pale brownish yellow band on upper and undersides of forewings between the two 
transverse bands and the marginal band. It extends from costa to hind margin. It follows the marginal 
band and is 3—8 mm wide being only intersected by the colouration of the veins, which is normal. Hun¬ 
gary. — ab. attingens Gschw. lias the 2nd transverse band of all wings displaced inwardly, so that it borders 
on the ocelli. $-ab. conjuncta Gschw. has the 1st and 2nd transverse stripes of forewings conjoined in 
cellule 1 of forewings by a deep dentation of the 2nd transverse stripe. Underside is normal. Vienna. — 
if-ab. defascia Gschw., the 1st and 2nd transverse stripes of forewings are missing on upperside of forewings. 
Underside is normal. Vienna. — In ab. aigneri Pillich the undulate line beyond the eyespot on hindwings 
is quite extinct and the pale patch around the ocellus becomes gradually darker towards the outer margin. 
- ab. umbrosa Amiot strongly inclines towards melanism. The disc, submarginal bands and almost the en¬ 
tire costal margin are deep black, the latter with a few scattered pale scales. — <J-ab. melanopis Gschw. has 
no white intersecting line in the eyespots of both wings on upper and undersides. Vienna. — ab. macropis 
Gschw. has ocelli somewhat elongated and considerably increased in size, an analogous variation to pavonia- 
macropis Schultz. <?-ab. reducta Gschw. is a counterpart to the previous form and shows remarkably small 
ocelli on all wings, about the size of those of a large E. pavonia- $. Vienna. — alticola Denso denotes a $ 
and the descendants bred from same. It was captured extraordinarily late, in July at Bonneville near 
Geneva at an altitude of 1000 m (Saxonnet) and the ova deposited by this very small pyri- $ produced again 
very small imagines. The colouration of same is generally more dusky; the zigzag lines on both wings are 
less distinctly marked and in all cases touch the ocelli. The pale dusting in central area is darker and the 
markings generally appear wider and more dusky. Perhaps this is a high altitude form, as pyri is rarely found 
above 600 m altitude. 
S - atlantica Luc. (Vol. 2, p. 221, pi. 31 b). — ab. cors juncta Gschw. is captured at El Kantara in Al¬ 
geria. The dentations of the 2nd transverse line of forewings touch the 1st transverse line on the 2nd cubi- 
talis and in the centre of cell. On hindwings the two transverse stripes merge forming a single dark band 
from 2nd cubitalis to hind margin. — $-ab. conjuncta-perTUpta Gschw. from the same locality as the previous 
variety. The dentation of the 2nd transverse line intersects the 1st transverse line on the 2nd cubitalis, so that 
the inner white edge of 1st line merges with the outer white edge of the 2nd line. In cellule 1 the dentation 
touches the 1st transverse line, also the dentation on the 2nd analis approaches same very closely, almost 
conjoining with same. On hindwings the two transverse lines are conjoined onwards from the 2nd cubitalis, 
similarly to the preceding form.

E. spini Schiff. (Vol. 2, p. 222. pi. 31 b, c). — We are reproducing an illustration of the form cepha- 
lariae (11 b), already mentioned in Vol. 2, p. 222. — ab. lurida Gschw. denotes SB of impure yellow ground 
colour. ?-ab. infumata Gschw. has upper and undersides uniformly dusky; all patches that are normally 
Paler or white are clouded over. Hungary. — G-ab. dilutibasis Gschw., also from Hungary, has a very pale 
basal area, almost of the same shade as the central area. The 1st transverse stripe is formed of three lines, 
of which the inner and outer ones are dark brown, whilst the central one is pale diffuse brown; the two 
dark brown lines extend to the costal area, the stripe itself is almost straight and vertical to the hind marg¬ 
in of forewings. The outer area of all wings is paler than in name type form. Underside almost identical 
with upperside. ah. albescens Gschw. is a bred A from Lundenberg with predominant white ground colour 
on all wings, especially the central area of hindwings is strikingly pale whitish grey over its entire area. 
ab. conjuncta Gschw. has 1st and 2nd transverse lines of forewings conjoined by a dentation of the latter 
in cellule 1 and on the 2nd analis. On hindwings the two transverse lines are conjoined from the 2nd cubi- 
talis to the hind margin. Underside of all wings is normal. — ab. continua Schultz (Vol. 2, p. 222) should act¬ 
ually he contigua Schltz. 
E. pavonia L. (Vol. 2, p. 222, pi. 31c). — $-ab. citrina Gschw. has pale lemon yellow colouration. 
?-ab. brunnea Gschw. quite buff. Both varieties from around Vienna. — $-ab. erythrina Schltz. has dull 
rusty red ground colouration to all wings, which uniformly covers the whole area and the typical markings 
stand out sharply and clearly. — alboplaga Gschw. (= albophaga Boll.) denotes very pale specimens in both 
sexes. Size and markings are normal, but the colours are so much paler that the $ ocelli are on creamy 
white and those of the $ on pure white ground. The creamy white areas between the 1st and 2nd trans¬ 
verse lines and between the 1st mediana and 1st cubitalis on the upperside of hindwings are quite espec¬ 
ially striking. $-ab. saturatior Schltz. is the counterpart to the preceding form. It is very dusky but 
by no means identical with infumata Newnh. (Vol. 1, p. 223). The margins of all wings are intensively grey- 
black, in front of same there is a very narrow, but distinct pale transverse line. Basal area, central area 
below the ocelli and also the submarginal area are very dusky grey-black. The white areas contrast sharply
