The geographical and seasonal variations of Coenonympha pamphilus L. 205 
Yeither of these names, however, can be applied to the race of 
he latter region, because the great majority of individuals fall 
yetween the two by the extent of the white band-like space and 
Jy the general pattern of underside, which, furthermore, is often 
suffused with a rich warm chestnut tinge to an extent never seen 
n any other race; besides this, a form is produced usually, in 
vhich the underside of forewing is divided by a sharp black 
streak from costa to second cubital nervure, showing the entire 
yattern tends to be bolder than in any other race. I thus think 
ne is quite justified in differentiating it by the name of /ondinii, 
nihi (typical series of July, from Hartley Wood, near St. Osyth, 
ınd Shoeburyness, in Essex). Its II gen. post/ondini, mihi, does 
ı0t diifer much to the naked eye from the I, except that I notice 
n my end of August series from Stamford Hill and Hornsey, in 
Middlesex, and Belvedere, in Kent, a greater accentuation, on an 
ıverage, of the features described above in the I generation and 
ı sligthly darker marginal band on upperside. This race stands 
0 the nymotypical one, I have from Norrviken, in Central Sweden, 
rom Kuusamo, in Northern Finland, and from Leningrade, as 
‚hiloxenus Esp. stands to isis, Thnb., in C. fiphon. It is not 
ufficiently known that nymotypical pamphilus is a peculiar 
ace, quite different from all the others by its very small size, 
rail build, weakly and discoloured look on both surfaces and mi- 
ıute apical ocellus on underside of forewing. The frailest examples 
tom Britain of form pallida, Tutt, are similar to it. 
The Asiatie races of Group pamphilus, L. 
From the Transcaspian District I have a stricking race collected 
t Kushk (presumably of I gen.) and sent to me by Bang Haas: 
ace fulvolactea, mihi. Large size. On upperside it is bright 
Ichreous with a broad marginal band of a milky gray tone and 
0 ocelli, the apical one of underside only showing through. On 
inderside of hindwings it is of a pale fulvous or of a milky 
ray, tinged with fulvous, merging softly into the central white 
yand; some individuals have no ocelli or premarginal lunules on 
hese wings; in others they show faintly in pearl gray. 
The following race centralasiae, mihi, with its II gen. post- 
entralasiae, mihi, is distributed over a very large area. It evi- 
iently corresponds to the emiaustralis of Europe and its indi- 
idual variations are to a certain degree parallel to those of that 
ace, but they do not go, to my knowledge, so far as to include 
n equivalent of sernilyllus or of latecana. 1 have series from: 
Vernyi, in Turkestan; Raigorodsk, in northern Zarafshan; Aulie
