We are therefore reproducing the egg on Plate PLATE 12 Egg of Goniitriis proteus, highly magnified. The single example from which this photograph was made reached us through the courtesy of Comm. C. M. Dammers of Riverside, Calif. It was laid September 1, 1931, on Buckeye bean, where it was deposited on the under surface of the leaf. The summer and fall of 1931 was a remarkable season for the occurrence in Southern California of a number of species which ordinarily do not range north of the Mexican line. Not only was G. proteus abundant, but manv captures were recorded of Sesia titan Cram, and Eriunxis ello L., two species which sel- dom venture into California. 18.
