EURYMUS PHILA. 
Colias Phicomone Phila, Fruhstorfer, Iris, ] 903, p. 47. 
One male from Kashmir, differs from about twenty males from the Alps, on account 
of the greater range and the brownish-red, instead of black, spot at the end of the cell 
of the forewing. The golden discal spot (or stain) of the hindwing is larger, the golden 
Bub-marginal bands unusually broad, on the other hand all the black bands are much 
reduced.
