In the follow inn paKcs nine species are descrilxd as new. in addition to
which two new varieties are reco(i;iiized. Th." majority of these new species

One of the specimens taken between latitudes 67° 25' and 66° 30', lonfj.

from Nansen creek, Yukon Territory (fig. 4). Barnes and McDunnough in
their "Contributions," vol. Ill, No. 2, Plate VI, figure a male and a female of
arctjca from ("hatanika, Alaska.

Pieris napi pseudobryoniae Verity.

Pieris napi paetuiobryonin; Verity: Rhopalocera Palsearctica, 146, 1908.

Specimens of this form in the Ottawa collection are from the following
localities: Bartlett bay, off CJlacier bav, Alaska, June 10, 1907, 2 males, 1 female
(I). H. Nelles); Alaska, 1894, 2 females (Ogilvie). A male and a female from
Bartlett bay are shown on Plate 111, figs. 1 and 2.

In the Ottawa collection there is a specimen of napi taken at Dease lake,
northern British Columbia, June 17, 1887 (G. M. Dawson). Fletcher' recorded
this as venom Scudd. This latter form was described from California. I have
recently compared the specimen from Dease lake with Edwards' figure of
oleracea-hiemalis on Plate 2, Vol. 1, Papilio, and while the veins are more heavily
lined, it otherwise is similar to the figure referred to. It is certainly different
from specimens of venosn from California in the Canadian National collection.
Long series of such northern forms are reciuired before one can arrive at any
satisfactory decision regarding their status.

(ienus Euchloe Hbn.
Euchloe creusa Dbldv.

Anthocharis crema Dbldy. : Gen. Diur. Lep., pi. 7, 1847.

Three specimens from northern localities are in the Canadian National
coUecti(m, namely from Pelly river, Yukon Territorv (W. Ogilvie), and between
latitudes 67° 25' "and 66° 30', June 12-15, 1912 (D.' I). Cairnes).

The specimen from Pelly river was named .4. hyantis some years ago by
the late Dr. Fletcher. This latter name, however, according to Barnes and
McDunnough^, should evidently be used for the Californian race of creusa.

In 1908, Mr. C. H. Young, of the Canadian Geological Survey, found the
larvce abundantly at Departure bay, British Columbia, feeding on tower mustard,
Arabis glabra (L.) Bernh. Unfortunately he did not make any larval notes,
but brought to me on his return to Ottawa a number of the chrysalids, from one
of which a butterfly had emerged and from another a tachinid parasite of the
genus Exorista'. The ehrysalid is shown on Plate III, fig. 7.

Euchloe ausonides Bdv.

Four northern specimens of this species are in the Canadian National
collection taken at the following localities: Telegraph creek, Stikine river,
northern British Columbia, May 27, 29, 1887 (G. M. Dawson); Cassiar trail,
10 miles west of Dea.se lake, British Columbia, June 4, 1887 (G. M. Dawson);
Pelly river, below Hoole river, Yukon Territory, July 5, 1907 (J. Keele).

This specimen in the width of the hand approaches meadi Ivlw. The females
vary in size from 42 to 51 mm.

" Specimens of both sexes have also been compared with N'erity's figures of
hedn. One or two, possibly more, of our females may be the same- as his
chr\jxolhemoide!i.

Seven specimens, males, of the same species were brounht back by the
Northern Party of the ("anaiiian Arctic Expedition. These were collected at
Armstronj; point, Victoria island, Northwest Territories, .July 1 U), HMG
(.1. Hadley).

In addition to the above specimens there are 21 other examples in the
Canadian National collection taken as follows:

Klutlan glacier, international boundarv, .lune 21, elevation 7,.")00 feet. 1
male (E. W. Nesham); Alaska, lat. o9° HO', 141st meridian -hit. ()<)° 40', 141st
meridian, June-July, 1912, 2 males, 1 female (J. M. Jessup). This latter is a
white female, anil is apparently pallida S. and M.

Lansing river, Yukon T<>rritory, June 24, 100."), 1 male (J. Keele). This
specimen was reconled as Eurymux boothi in the Entomological Record for 190.')'.

Ladue river, Yukon Territory, July 4, 190.5, 1 male (J. Keele). Previously
recorded with specimen from Lansing river as E. boothi.

M.'iyo valley, Yukon Territory, 1904 (J. Keel(>). In the Entomological
Record for l',M)4- Fletcher recorded this specimen as E. boothi. stating that it
corresponded exactly with Elwes' fig. iV. Unfortunately this specimen is in vt>ry
poor condition. I have compared it with Elwes' figure refern'd to, and wouUl
determine it as heela (jlncinli'i not boothi.

Kluane road, 13.'> miles from Whitehorse, Yukon Territory, June 21, 1914,
1 male, 1 female (D. D. Cairnes).

Near mouth of Nansen creek, head of Nisling river, Yukon Territory, July
4 1914, 2 males, 1 femah' (D. I). Cairnes); White river district, Yukon
Territory, lat. (iT .55', long. 141°, July Hi, 1913, 1 male (1). D. Cairnes);
Tatondiik river, international boundary, lat. Go° 02', August 3, 1912, 1 male
(D. D. Cairnes); Tinder creek, Yukon Territory. July 25, 1912, 1 female (D. D.
Cairnes); west branch of the Thelon river. Northwest Territories, July (i, 1900,
1 male (J. Tvrrell); Sore-head river, east coast of Hudson bay, .\ugust 15,
1898, 3 males, 2 females (A. P. Low).

Eurymus boothi Curtis.
Colia.^ boothii Curtis: Ross' Nar. Second Voyage N.-W. Pass., App., ()5, 1835.

Six specimens, all males, from the following localities: Hernard haibour,
Northwest Territories, July 14, 191(), 5 si)ecimens (E. Johansen); Port Epworth,
Coronation gulf, July 15, 1915, one specimen (J. J. O'Neill).

I have compared these six specimens with the original figures and description
of boothi and cannot associate them with any other species. The specimens have
also been compared with Elwes' figures^ of specimens collected at Port Epworth,
Barren Grounds ami Grav's bav. In the collection of the National Museum at
Ottawa are three specimens taken in the Yukon in 1904 and 1905 which were
recorded in the Entomological Reccrd' for 1904 and 1905. 1 have studied these
specimens and am satisfied that they are not boothi but similar to other specimens
which we have determined as hecla glaci(di'< McLach.

Barnes and McDunnouKh' have recently separated the forms which they
considered should be arrangj-d under riirythenir. He>?ar(linn kontenni which they
refer to as being evidently the spring form of British Columbia, it is of interest
to include here the following records: Pelly river, at mouth of Campbell creek,
Yukon Territory, male, July 8, 1907 (.J. Keele); Pelly river, near Hoole river,
Yukon Territory, male, Julv '», 1907 (.1. Keele): Klotassiu river area, Yukon
Territory. (52° 31' to ()3° Oti'; long. 137° 30' to 139° 30', summer, 191(j. male and

Eurymus Christina Edw.
Colias chrinlma Edw.: Proc. Ent. Soc. Phil., II, 79, 1803.

Mr. Jos. Keele, of the Department of Mines, Ottawa, has on several occasions
collected interesting specimens of lepidoptera in northern regions. In 1908 he
met with this species on the Mackenzie river opposite (travel river, Northwj-st
Territories, July 17, 18, 1908, (i males, ."> females. A single female Wus also
collected by Dr. D. D. Cairnes on the west side of Lake Kluane, near Jacijuot's
road house, Yukon Territory, Aug. 2, 1914. These siiecimens are similar to
others taken in more southern regions in the provinces of Alberta and Saskatche-
wan. One of the specimens is apparently the form ijigniitea Stkr. The species
was described from material collected " at the portage of Slave river."

In 1888, Mr. F. Bell collected a coliid at Fort Simpson, Northwest Terri-
tories, and this was determined by W. H. F^lwards as occidentnlix, and recorded
as such by Fletcher^. Barnes and Y Dunnough' state that possibly the Fort
Simpson specimens mentioned by Scudder in his description of occidentnliH really
belonged to a yellow form of Christina, and for this rea.son they would restrict
the name nccidentalis to the Vancouver island form which, while close, they
mention can at once be distinguished by the much greater suffusion of black at
the ba.se of both wings on the upper side, approaching in this res|)ect chnjsniiuias
Hy. Edw.

The specimen collected by Mr. Bell and named occidciitnlin for Fletcher by
Edwards certainly lacks the suffusion of black at the base of both wings on the
upper side and is thus similar to chrisliriu as we know the latter.

Eurymus pelidne Bdv.

Colias pelidne Bdv.: Icones, pi. VIII, 1832.

In the Canadian National collection there arc twelve specimens which we
have determined as this species. These specimens were taken as follow.s:
Limestone harbour, opposite northern part of Big island, Hudson strait, July
24, 1897, male (R. Bell); head of Kaliktookduog inlet, north side of Hudson
strait, July 26, 1897, male (R. Bell); Sore-head river, east coast of Hudson bay,
August 15, 1898, male (A. P. Low); Hannah bav, Hudson bav, female; Koong-
neow inlet, Hudson strait, July 29, 1897, female "(R. Bell); Labrador, Julv 9, 27,
5 males (A. P. Low); Little Ch.irlton island, James )»av, July 14, 1884, male

Comparing these specimens with the s<-ries determined as r/i //;/«' im referred

marginal bands are narrower, especially on the secondaries, and the discal spot
on the undersi.le of the secoiidari.-s is distinctly martjined with red mostly of a
purplish shade. Barnes and McOunnouRh' refer to the discal spot of the
fon'winK of lahmdorensix as being entirely absent or only faintly outlined l)y

This excellent serii-s has enabled us to form a jtood idea of tiie ranne of
variation which may occur within the species. The wing expanse of the males
varies from 35 mm. to 38 mm. and the females from 34 mm. to 43 nun. In
the males tlu' underside both in colour and markings is fairly constant but the
upperside shows more variation. The secondaries are mostly of a pale Huorife
ureen' n'ore or less dusted with black. The i)rimaries in most specimens arc-
darker t i.iu the secondaries, the whole wings in some examples being heavily
<lusted with black. In the females there is more colour variation on the under-
sides, some specimens being greinish-yellow others darker grei-n and others
again dark green with a i)inkish tinge. In most of the specimens the marginal
band of yellow is conspicuous.

Verity''' has figured a male and a female (types) of the variety ro.ss// Guenee
brought back by Captain Koss. None of our males can with certainty be
definitely associated with the figure of the male type but one or two of the females
match fairly well the figure of the female type. The figures on plate 27 d. of
Seitz's Macroleiiidoptera of the Woild are more like our specimens.

A single example (female) was brought back by the Northern Party of the
Canadia.n Arctic Expedition. This was collected at Armstrong point, \'ictoria
island. Northwest Territories, early July, 191t) (J. Hadley).

In addition to the above specimens there are in the Canadian National
collection three females fr(iiu St)re-head river, east coast of Hudson bay, August
15, 1898 (A. P. Low), and one male specimen from Labrador (collector and
exact locality unknown).

Differs from acmidca from New Hampshire in the general colour of both the
upperside and the underside of the wings. The upper side of the wings is pale
brown, almost (lrab=, the dark scales of the underside showing through particu-
larly on the secondaries. The underside is of a dull grey-l)rown. the macidation
dark brown and not nearly so contrasting with the ground colour as in sfmiilen,
the mottlings l)eing much more diffused and there being an absence of the con-
spicuous whitish areas present in the latter on the underside of the secondaries.

The daspers of scmider arclicu are shown on PI. I. fig. 4 beside those of

of tile maculation on the underside of the secondaries, and their smaller wing
expan.se seem to warrant the naming of this variety or race.

Two specimens taken as follows: Port Kpworth, Coroiiatitm gulf, North-
west Territories, July I.'i, 1«1"), 1 male, I f,-male (J. J. O'Neill).

The former specimen is much like the figure of dis'i on plate 37h, vol. 1, of
Seitz's Macrolepiiioptera of the Worhl but is m"cli darker brown in colour, '''lie
median band on the underside of the .st'con,; cs is well defined, the arer ti
either side being greyish-white. The female is in a poor state of pr"servation.

In the Canadian National collection there are specimens from the Yukon
and Northwest Territories, bearing the following la!)els:— 7.") miles from White-
horse, near Canyim river, Yukon Territory. Jum- 11, 1911, 1 male (D. I).

Black river, Yukon Territory, .at. (j(>° 34', June 18, 1912 (I). D. Cairnes).

There is a noticeable variation in thfse lattei specimens, not only in
the size of the spots on the primaries, but al.so in the colour of the lower side of
the wings and the faintness or otherwise of the median band on the secondaries.
In the specimen from near Canycn river, for instance, the colour of the underside
of the .secondaries is almost wholly dark brown, very similar to the colour of the
reverse side, excepting the outer margin which is greyish.

Some of these example* t.liould doubtless i>e refernd to the var. muncinus

Canadian Arctic Expedition, t9t3-lS
Erebia epipsodea Butl.

Erebia epi/miiiea Rutl.: ("iit. Satyr. Brit. Mu.s., 80, 1868.

This species which is evidently rare in nortiiern regions was collected by
Mr. ,L Keele, in the Yukon Territory, on the Pelly river, below Hoole river,
July ,'), 1007. 1 male. This specimen is in the Canadian National collection!
Two other sp(>cimens, 1 male and 1 female collected bv the late Dr. D. 1). Cairnes,
in the Klohissin river area, Yukon Territory, lat. 02° 81' to 08° 00'; long. 137°
30' to 130° 30', summer, 1016, are in the same collection. These specimens are
similar to examples from more southern localities.

Erebia youngi Holl.

Erebia youngi Holland: Ent. News, XI, 388, 1900.

This species was described from material collect<"d between Fortymile and
Mission creeks, northeastern Alaska. No specimens were brought back by the
members of the Canadian Arctic I'Apedition, but in the years 1012 and 1914,
I>. D. 1). Cairnes, of the (ieological Survey of Canada, brought back from the
Yukon, nine .specimens, five taken in 1912 (all males), and four in 1914 (three
males and one female). The 1012 specimens were taken at Siwash creek,
international boundary, lat. 65° o7' on .June 2()-30, and the 1014 examples col-
lected at Nansen creek, Placer Mining Cam|), Yukon Territory, July 4-7.

In addition to the specimens collected by the late Dr. Cairnes, we also have
in the Canadian National collection, a male specimen, collected with other
material, the label covering all reading: "Alaska, lat. .')9° 30' and 141st meridian —
lat. 69° 40' and 141st meridian, June-July, 1012 (J. M. Jessup)."

In the female the broad dark median band on the undersitle of the second-
aries i.s more conspicuous than in the males owing to the fact that the basal and
submarginal areas are much paler in colour. In one of the males the submar-
ginal reddish spots on the upperside of the secondaries are almost absent.

When describing E. ynumji, Holland stated that the species is not far from
E. dahnnen.six Krschoff. It certainly is close to this latter spe<'ies as figured by
Elwes'. • • - - • ...._.

Erebia magdalena Stkr.: Bull. Brooklyn Ent. Soc, III, 35.

In the ('anadian National collection there are two specimens of an Erebia
from the Yukon which we have placed under moydalenn Strk. One of these
specimens, a male, has been recorded by Fletcher^ as this species. It was
collected by Mr. Jos. Keele of the Department of Mines, who captured it " on
mountain 12 miles up Racfcla river, August 2, 1005."

Mr. Keele informed me recently that the specimen was collected on a rocky
situation above timber line, the elevation being about 6,000 feet. The other
specimen, a female, was collected by the late Dr. D. D. Cairnes, of the Geological
Survey, at Nati(m river, Yukon Territorv. lat. ().")° 30', long. 141°, on .lulv 24
1912. ■ '

('omjmring these two specimens with three examples of magdalena presented
to Fletcher some years ago an<l collectr'd by Bruce in Coloradl) and now in the
Ottawa colli'ction, they differ as foUows: the male which is in poor condition,
being rubbed, is smaller than the Colorado male, measuring 45 mm. with wings
expanded, the former i)eing 40 mm. Otherwise both specimens seem to be
similar. Th<' Yukon female is also smaller than the two Colorado females in

the colU-otion measuring 47 mm., the two hitter bein^ 50 mm. and ")2 mm. re-
spectively. The !;eneral colour in all three specimens is similar, hut on the primaries
of the Yukon female the whole central area is flushed with dark red, thus ap-
proaching E.fdsciata. The specimens in colour are clo.sest to bister', none of them
being the same shade as fiirured by Edwards'-. A comparison of the genitalia
of the male from the Yukon with that of a male from Colorado indicates that
the clasper, in both specimens is similar and close to that of E. fanciata which
has been figured by Chapman'.

Erebia sofia Stkr.

Erebia sofia Stkr.: Bull. Brook. Ent. Soc, III, 35, 1880.

In the Canadian National collection are five specimens of this interesting
butterfly which were taken as follows: White river district, international bound-
ary, hit. 61° 55', long. 141°, .July Hi, 1913, 2 males, 1 female (D. D. Cairnes);
Bonanza crei'k, Chisana district, Alaska, August 3, 1913, 1 male (D. D. Cairnes);
Harrington creek, Yukon Territory, lat. ()5° 05', long. 141°, .July 30, 1912, 1
female (D. D. Cairnes).

In specimens of sofia examined from Colorado, which are in the Ottawa
collection, the six redilish-brown spots comprising the submarginal band on the
upper side of the primaries are of similar size and very conspicuous, whereas
in the specimens collected by the late Dr. Cairnes, the spots are more or less
indefinite and only the upper three approach in size similar spots in Colorado
specimens. The lower three spots of the submarginal band are present on the
primaries of the above-mentioned specimens, but are much smaller, being about
half the size of the upper spots.

In the variety alaxkenfiis* " the specimens are all characterized by the
reduction of the number of light spots, l)oth on the upper and low<'r sides of
the wings." The author of this variety further states in his description: " In
almost all of the specimens before me there are three spots on the primaries
above and below and but two spots on the lower side of the secondaries. Only
one specimen approximates the typical form in the number of spots on the
lower size of the wings."

The spi'cimens in the Canadian National collection do not agree with this
description. There is nothing in the above description regarding the difference
in the size of the spots on tlie upi)er surface of the primaries, and in all of the
northern examples before me there are a greater number of white spots on the
underside of the secondaries, two specimens (1 male and 1 femah') liaving four
spots and three specini(>ns (1 male and two females) having five spots. The
single exception from which sofia was described had four white spots on the
underside of the secondaries. The underside of both wings of one of our speci-
mens is vei similar to fig. 51e of -tofia in vol. V of Seitz's Macrolepidoptera
of the \Vor[(, Strecker in his description of sofia states that it is on the upper
side an almost exact counterpart of A', ktfirstcniii, but as has already been
pointed out by lClwes° he prol)al)ly meant haberhaueri which was sent out by
mistake under the former name. Our specimens of xofia certainly resemble
somewhat linlwrhaucn' as figured l>y Seitz. A male from the White river district,
Yukon Territory, is shown on PI. IV, fig. 11. The underside of the female from
Harrington creek is shown cm Fl. Ill, fig. 5.

Argynnis bischoffii Edw.: Trans. Amer. Ent. Soc, III, 189, 1870.

A single specimen taken on August 7, 1904, at Mavo lake, Yukon Territt
(J. Keele) was determined by Fletcher as A. eurynome Edw., and has be
recorded under this latter name by Keele'. Several years ago I submitt
this specimen to Dr. Skinner, who reported that it was a boreal form of
eurynome Edw. Personally, however, I prefer to plac«- the specimen under t
name bischoffi Edw., which was described from Alaska, opposite Kodiak,
the description the spots on the underside are referred to as being pale, r
silvered. The above specimen (a male) which is in the Canadian Natioi
collection, has silvered spots. Edwards, however, has remarked that the spec
occurs at Sitka, Alaska, in both silvered and unsilvered forms, and figured
specimen of the former*. Barnes and McDunnough' in discussing th(> spec
briefly point to the fact that the name in senn. utrict. can only apply to t
unsilvered form.

Looking over the above series there is of course considerable variation among
the specimens not only in the general colour of the upper surface of the wings,
but also in the arrangement and colour of the markings on the underside. The
median band particularly on the underside of the secondaries shows marked
variation. The specimens brought back by members of the Canadian Arctic
Expedition and also those from the Yukon Territory approach the variety
ardica Zett., in fact one of the examples, namely the male from Ladue river,
Yukon Territory, was some years ago determined as arclica by Dr. Henry
Skinner. The specimens from Sore-head river, east coast ef Hudson bay, are
in general smaller and in the series there is a greater tendency to melanism.
The marginal spot m the underside of the secondaries are white, very distinct
and tend to coa.i ce. These examples differ noticeably from the variety
boinduvali Dup. which is represented in the Labrador specimens above referred
to, 'ected by Dr. A. P. Low.

wo of the males from Bernard harbour. Northwest "'rritories, were
kindly compared by Mr. H. J. Elwes, with specimens in the British Museum
from Arctic America. Mr. Elwes reported that they agreed precisely with
specimens collected by Hanbury on the .same coast. ^

The specimen collected by Jessup in Alaska in 1912, in the district between
the Porcupine river and the Arctic coast resembles very much Elwes' figure
of chariclea?

It is of interest to state that the example from Finlayson river was submitted
by Fletcher to W. H. Edwards, and on the envelope in which the specimen was
sent, the following appears in Edwards' handwriting : " This is very near hclena;
if not think (it) is chariclea. Dyar^ refers to helena as a variety of chnriclen.

Brenthis pales var. alaskensis Holland: Flnt. News, XI, 383, 1900.

In the National collection at Ottawa there are also three specimens, both
males, two taken on July 25, 1912, a* Raciiuet creek, international boundary,
lat. 05^ 20' (D. D. Cairnes), and the other collected on July 5, 1900, on the west
branch of the Thelon river. Northwest Territories (J. Tyrrell).

Tlu! variety alaskensis was described from the " mountains between Forty-

Upper side: ochraceou.s-t)range' the black markings much heavier than in

In the National collection at Ottaw.i are two other specimens, one a fiinale
collected at Kalik-took-duag inlet, north side of Hudson strait, Jiilv 27, 1807
(R. Bell), the other, a male, from cape Chidley, Hudson strait, 1885 (H. Bell).

The males do not show any material variation. In size they have a wing
expanse of from 3() to 43 mm. The upperside of all specimens is similar. The
general colour of the underside of the secondaries of two of the specimens inclines
to a uniform reddish shade similar to the underside of the primaries. In the
females there i.s a ditference in wing expanse, the variation being from 37 mm.
to 45 mm. The colour of the upper side of the primaries of this latter sex varies
in the specimens from a pale reddish-yellow to a dull bluish-white .,r dull purplish-
white. In a few of the specimens many of the scales particularly towards the
hind angle are, under a lens, seen to be decidedly bluish. The reddish bands on
the underside of the secondaries vary in colour from pale red similar to the
general colour of the primaries b.neath, to dull brownish-red.

Mr. Jenness who collected the specimens on Barter island states that they
were captured on the tundra early in the afternoon-!, in most instances between
1 and 2 p.m. in bright sunshine, the temperature varying from 34° F. to 50° F.,
the majority being tak<'n when the temperature was about 50° F.

In addition to the above si)ecimens, thirty-four exam])les were brought back
by the Northern Party of the <'anadian Arctic Expedition, from the following
localities: .Armstrong point. Victoria island. Northwest Territories, June 20 to
July 11, lOUi, 15 males, 11 females (J. Hadlev): Walker bav, Victoria island,
Northwest Territories, July «, 1017. 4 males, 2 females (J. Hadlev); Melville

Three of the above specimens, namely, one male from Barter island, one n

to Mr. H. J. Elwes, of Colesborne, Cheltenham, Eng., who very kindly compi
them with the .series in the British Mus>-um. He reported that the specim
agreed precisely with examples collected by Hanbury on the same coast furl
east.

The series above listed is an excellent one. Most of the specimens ar
fairly good condition. The males vary in wing expanse from 31 mm. to 30 i
and the females from 33 mm. to 37 mm. The ground colour of the former sh
marked variation. In some of the specimens the colour is very close to ha

In the brighter coloured examples the median band on the upper side of I
the primaries and secondaries is very conspicuous. The spots about mid
between the median band and the outer margin vary much in size and in a
specimens are joined forming a distinct band.

The underside of the males is fairly constant, the chief differences b
on the secondaries, namely in the number of pale, slightly bluish-coloi
scales present beyond the reddish-brown median area, in some examples tl
scales being noticeably abundant and forming almost a wide marginal b

In the Entomological Record for 1917' I recorded lirrnlhis yoiingi Moll,
from Klutlan glacier, »,(K)() feet, June, im,\ (H. F. J. l.ambart). On* further
study, however, this specimen is undoubtedly improh-i Butler. I rather sus-
pected that youiHji might prove to be the same as /mpro/w and for this reason
I forwarded the Klutlan glacier specimen to Dr. \V. J. Holland who reported
as follows: —

" I found time this morning, (Dee«'mber20, 191H), tocompareyourspecimen
with my type of lirenlhin youngi. It is not the same. It is smaller in size,
darker both on the upper and lower side of the wings — a far more nielanic
insect — and conseciuently different in not having the dark, sharply defined
mesial band, characteristic of the secondaries of B. youngi. I would call it
H. improha Butler. It has a fascies (juite different from that of li. youngi.
which is a much lighter insect. Of course, there is a general similarity in tlu'
markings of this genus and the .species vary principally in the intensity and
accentuation of the markings on the different spots. In li. youngi the spots
are not silvere<l, or only slightly. I should say very decidedly that this specimen
is not a representative of my species."

Brenthis distincta, n. sp.

Close to B. alberta from which it differs in being larger, in the ground colour
of the upperside of the wings being of a dear yellowish-red colour, much as in
B. antarte Dbldy. and Hew., in the black marginal band being wider, and on
the underside in lacking the dull pubescent-like appearance of B. alberta, the
median band being decidedly more conspicuous, as are also the other markings
on the underside of the .secondaries. Discal row of round spots reddish.

It is of interest to note that in the Annual Report of the Geological Survey

I have included the record under Plebeius scudderi VAw. ^Shasta was described
from specimens from California.

On Septemtier 7. l!n:5, Mr. .lohansen collected a1 Collinson point, ami
old driftwood on tundra elevation, a sintjle specimen of the larva of what
undouliteiUy this species. It was placed in alcohol.

'i"he followiiiji is a description of the specimen:

l.ennth, :{l) mm. (I should think this >pecimen when alive and walk
would easily measure t.') miii.i. Head. :i-.') mm. wide, rounded, dull luiiwni
tirey. exceptiny: elypeiis and aie.i .•irouiid antenna' and mouth parts which
shinini: Mack, and sides which are reddish-yellow; thickly hairy, the hairs hla
Mody black, tlie tulierelo with thick Imnches of hairs; the lateral hairs
mostly longer than the dois.'d hairs and many. Iirowii in colour, are conspieuou
feathered and more spreadinc; the lateral hairs which are not feathered
spinillose and either long ludwii or dark-reddish lirown hairs or are shoi
liairs orange-yellow in colour. The dorsal hairs are shorter than the lati
hairs and the feathered ones are hunched together particidarly so on the anfei
segments, the yellow hairs which also occur on the dorsum being more or 1
hidden, exceiiting in the subdorsal area where they are of \\ brighter yell
and more conspicuous. This specimen is figured on I'l. Ill, fig. 0.

Other larva' differ from the above in that all the hairs are lighter in col
.ami in having the yellowish hairs more noticeably intermixed with the doi
feathered hairs which in these specimens are greyish.

The larva has been described by Curtis' as follows: " Large and hairy i
beautiful shining velvety black, the hairs Icing >omewluit ocherous; there
two tufts of black on the back, followed bv two of orange."

This brief descni)tion is, of course, of little value. l')yar who has stud
the l.'irva of rn^ixi as well as that of (jrocnUiiKlicn states'- that " Curtis must h;
mixed the species, deserilnng the moth of riisai and the larva of (jroi nhxiuiic
I'ackard described the larva of nissi fn.ni rolaii> bay" iiut hi.- ii.>i rijKion d
not agree with the description of the larva described above from Collin;

L. \V. Swett compared this example with material in iiis coMection from Kur
and reported that it did not match exactly the s|)ecimens in his series,
states' " Packard's name fcrnujintind would hold in case this form was
exactly like the Kuropean. ]t could only l.e a race of the Kuropean bninm
at hest and a series of microscopic slides with life-histories, would he neces«
to -eparaie them; in Ilaiiif the jienitalia are not so liinhlv specialized as in .si

The Yukon example is rather darker in col ■ than the other specini
