Eannoch district when I was there in 1867. Its 
range does not extend very high up the mountains, 
Scottish specimens are similar to English—British 
specimens being much inferior in size and in brilliancy 
of colouration to South European ones. The same 
remark applies to E. Semele. —1858, June 21 ; 1859, 
June 30 ; 1860, July 11 ; 1865, July 1 ; 1868, June 
23 ; 1859, June 26. 
14. E. HyperantJius L. is a local species in Perth¬ 
shire, and is, I think, only found in the lowland part 
of the county. It occurs on Kinnoull Hill, in Glen- 
farg, &c. Skye is the most northern locality in Scot¬ 
land at present known for this species,—1858, June 
21; 1859, July 1 ; 1860, July 14 ; 1865, July, 1. 
15. Coenonympha Pampliilvs L. is a very common 
species in open places, in woods, and on the moors. 
Its range extends far up the hill-sides. Scottish 
specimens are larger and darker than English.—1858, 
June 8 ; 1859, May 31 ; 1860, June 23 ; 1864, June 
18 ; 1867, June 19 ; 1868, June 3 ; 1869, June 9. 
16. C. Davus L. is not so widely distributed in 
Perthshire as might have been expected. There are 
many apparently suitable localities near Perth where 
it ought to occur, but as yet it has not been detected 
in these. It is common in Pannoch and other High¬ 
land districts, and is found at a considerable elevation. 
C. Eavw^ is a very variable species, and till the dis¬ 
covery of the larva of the Scottish form it will remain 
uncertain whether that be not a distinct species (Q. 
Typhon, Haio) from the English Ecivus. The 
northern variety Isis occurs in Pannoch. C. Davus 
appears to be found throughout Scotland.—1867, 
July 8 ; 1868, June 20 ; 1869, June 28. 
17. Erehia Epiphron Kn. is the only truly alpine 
butterfly indigenous to Britain. In Scotland it has 
only been hitherto observed in Perthshire, where it 
occurs at a considerable elevation on the mountains 
on both sides of Loch Pannoch, and on the north of 
Loch Tay. In England it only occurs in the Lake 
district, specimens from which are decidedly smaller 
than Perthshire ones. 
18. E. Medea W. V. occurs abundantly in some of 
the Highland vallevs of Perthshire ; as at Pitlochrie.
