Paphia andria, Scud—The Goat-weed Butterfly. 
This may readily be known by the following characters: The tip 
of the fore wings quite pointed and falcate; the hind wings tailed; 
the upper surface a reddish brown, quite red in the males; in the 
females an irregular band of an orange cast through both wings, the 
border dark brown, and the under side mottled copper. Expands 
three inches. This caterpillar is green and feeds on Croton capitatum. 
Neonymph a eurytis, Fab.—The Eurytis Butterfly. 
Dark brown above, paler beneath. On each wing above are two 
eve-like spots, with double blue pupils enclosed in an ochre-yellow 
ring, the whole in a broad outer band, a little paler than the rest. 
Beneath, these marks are more prominent, with two additional eye- 
spots on each hind wing. Expands an inch and a half. 
The larvae vary from greenish gray to pale brownish yellow, thickly 
covered with whitish tubercles; feed on grass. 
Satyrus alope, Fab.—The Alope Butterfly. 
Expanse of wings two and a half inches. Upper side blackish 
brown, the underside finely undulated with black. In the outer part 
of the fore wings is a light band containing two eye-like spots with 
blue pupils. These are repeated below. No eye spots in the hind 
wings. The caterpillar is pale green with dark green stripes, the 
bead round and the tail ends in a fork. 
Satyrus nephele, Kirby—The Nephele Butterfly. 
Darker and smaller than the Alope. Expands from an inch and 
three-fourths to two inches. Color dark brown, but paler beneath and 
finely undulated with black. The sub-marginal band on the upper 
side of the wings not plain, but plainer below on the fore wings. 
Two eye-like spots on the fore wings above, and one near the anal an¬ 
gle on the hind wings, the yellow circle indistinct. On the under 
side the eye spots are the same and very distinct on the fore wings, 
but on each hind wing there are six, two large and four small. Cat¬ 
erpillars similar to Alope. They feed on grass.
