Butterflies; Papillons. m m i: i rw ! i Oenus Neominois and dark-brown scales, on the inner edge relieved by a number of imperfectly developed ocelli, which are partially ringed about on the side of the base by pale yellow. Early Stages. —Unkno'^/n. Tritonia occurs in southern Arizona and northern Mexico. Genus NEOMINOIS, Scudder flM//^r/?>'.—Medium-sized, with the costa and inner margin of the fore wing straight, the outer margin of the same wing evenly rounded. The hind wings have the outer margin evenly rounded, and the costa! margin quite strongly produced, or bent at: an angle, just above the origin of the costal vein. The inner margin is straight. The costal vein of the fore wing is slightly swollen. The costal margin at the extremity of the second costal nervule is slightly bent in- ward; the upper discocellular vein is wanting; the lower radial vein is emit- ted from the lower discocellular a little below the point at which it unites with the middle discocellular. The middle discocellular of the hind wing appears as an inward continuation of the lower radial for some distance, when it bends upward suddenly to the origin of the upper radial. The head is small; the an- tennae are short, with a thin, gradually developed club; the palpi are slender, compressed, well clothed with long hairs below. £^^.—The egg is somewhat barrel-shaped, broader at the base than at the top, with the summit rounded. The sides are ornamented with fourteen or fifteen vertical raised ridges, which are quite broad, and sometimes fork or run into each other. On the sides these ridges seem to be regularly excised at their bases, arid between them on the surface are many horizontal raised cross-lines, giving the depressed surface the appearance of being filled with shallow cells. Caterpillar.—The mature caterpillar has the head globular, 212. Fio. 120.—Neuration of the ge n
