NOTES ON THE BUTTERFLIES
 I have found the larvae and bred the perfect
insect, which appears in June. It must be double
brooded for I have also taken the butterfly in
December.

19. DIONE JUNO (Cram).
 This is a much less common insect than the
preceding. I have not observed it in the north,
but in the south and west it is not uncommon.
It is not so handsome as D. vanilla, the colour
of the upper surface of the wings is not nearly
so bright, and the insect is also smaller.
 D. moneta (Hub), which is much more lavishly
supplied and adorned with silver spots than either
of the preceding, does not appear to inhabit the
Colony, but I have received it from Guatemala.


 SUB-FAMILY Nymphalinse
20. EUPTOIETA HEGESIA (Cram).
 A fairly common insect, but I have noticed that
it appears much more abundantly in some years
than in others.
 It is found in open glades and clearings in
woods and also in grassy meadows, and it is a
sun lover.
 I have bred the butterfly from the larva. It is
found through the Colony and appears in June
and September.
