I then went through all the pale forms I had, but only succeeded in finding three specimens of C. erate ; so I presume this species is the rarer of the two. I have taken it in May, June, and November." 60. COLIAS SAREPTENSIS. Colias hyale, var. sareptensis, Staudinger, Cat. Lep. eur.

This form again seems to be rare as compared with 0. pallida, so that not only does my original suggestion that the latter was a hybrid between C. erate and C. sareptensis seem to be probable, but also that the intermediate form thus produced is supplanting both the parent stocks. 61.

"Terias asiope apud de Niceville, T.fimbriata apud Swinhoe; common in October and November."-/ TV. Y. This species only differs from typical T. fimbriata in the little pronounced subapical brown dash or stria on the under surface of the primaries; and as, in some species, this marking certainly does vary in intensity, it is safer to regard the Campbellpore form as a variety, at any rate until we have proof that the. difference of pattern is locally constant. The following was placed by Major Yerbury under the same number, but with a note of interrogation. 62. TERIAS IRREGULARIS. Terias irregularis, Moore, P. Z.
