Although it would appear highly unlikely that this 
subtropical species might occur in Illinois, Dr. L. J. 
Paulissen informed us (personal communication) that 
he had heard of the capture of a specimen on the 
campus of Purdue University, Lafayette, Indiana. Klots 
listed it as “straying n. to Kansas.”

Of this likewise subtropical form, Paulissen (per- 
sonal communication) said, “A fair possibility for Illi- 
nois. There are Arkansas and Missouri records.” 
ERRONEOUS RECORDS 
Some species which have been attributed to the 
Illinois fauna in error are discussed elsewhere in this 
paper. In addition to those, the following apparently 
erroneous records merit brief discussion. 
In the Illinois Natural History Survey collection are 
two specimens of Lycaena heteronea Boisduval labeled 
“Centralia, Illinois, July 4 and July 29, 1893,” and three 
examples of Speyerta mormonia eurynome (Edwards) 
with labels reading “N. Evanston, Ill. A. J. S.” and 
dates of July 27 and July 28, 1893, and August 3, 1896. 
All these specimens are from A. J. Snyder of Evanston. 
He is known to have collected both in southern Illinois 
and in the western states at these periods, and it is almost 
certain that he took these specimens in the West and 
inadvertently mixed them with Illinois material or mis- 
labeled them. We exclude these species from the Illinois 
list. 
French (1879) listed Grapta satyrus and G. gracilis 
from Illinois. The basis for his inclusion of these species 
is unknown, but we doubt their presence in this state. 
The records may have been founded on misidentified 
material, or, less probably, on casual strays; Illinois seems 
too far from the range of these Canadian Zone species 
for them to be accepted without question. 
LITERATURE CITED 
In the citations of original descriptions, the true date 
of publication is cited in every case. If the date falls 
within the period of publication of a work which ap- 
peared over an extended period of time, the publication 
referred to is that whose publication dates encompass 
the date quoted. In the case of the three works of Jacob 
Hiibner, which appeared nearly simultaneously, this pro- 
cedure is obviously inapplicable; here, we have given 
first the initial year of the reference in quotation marks, 
followed by the true date of publication of the name in 
brackets. Where a work appeared in more than one 
volume, the pagination of which recommenced with “1” 
with each volume instead of being consecutive, we have 
given the volume number in parentheses following the 
year of description, e.g. “Cramer 1777 (2) te 
Some of the names proposed by Cramer, Stoll, and 
Drury must be dated from the appearance of the indices 
to their works. For the sake of brevity in these cases, we 
have given the page references to the text descriptions, 
but have dated the names from the indices. 
References preceded by an asterisk have not been 
examined by the present authors.
