LEPIDOPTERA. 
411 
larvae excepting those of some of the Emperors ( Clilorippe ), 
not described in this book. Nearly sixty species belonging 
to this subfamily have been described from America north 
of Mexico. 
The Eyed Brown, Satyrodes eurydice (Sat-y-ro'des eu- 
ryd'i-ce).—The upper surface 
of the wings is soft mouse- 
brown on the basal half and 
paler beyond, considerably so 
in the female ; each wing bears 
a row of four or five small 
black eye-like spots (Fig. 481). 
This species is found in Onta¬ 
rio, and throughout the east¬ 
ern half of the United States. 
The Dull-eyed Grayling, Cercyonis nepliele (Cer-cy'o-nis 
neph'e-le).—The two most conspicuous of the Meadow- 
browns that occur east of the Rocky Mountains are this 
and the following one; they are comparatively large 
species, expanding from two inches to two and one fourth 
inches; both are dark brown. In this species there are on 
the upper surface of the fore wing on the outer third of 
the wing two black spots with white or bluish centers ; 
sometimes the wing is tinged with yellow in the vicinity of 
these spots, but generally the tinge is very slight, and it is 
never so deep as in the next species; the hind wing is with 
or without a spot in cell VII,, and sometimes with a spot on 
either side of this one. On the lower surface the eye-like 
spots of the fore wings are distinctly ringed with yellowish ; 
and the hind wings are with or without eye-like spots, 
usually with six of them. (See the Hybrid Graylings, 
below.) 
The Blue-eyed Grayling, Cercyonis alope (C. al'o-pe).— 
This species closely resembles the preceding, but it is dis¬ 
tinguished by the presence of a distinct yellow or pale orange 
band on the outer half ^of the fore wings.
