Extract

Mr. W. H. Edwards' Limenitis Eros published in the Dec. (1880) No. of Can. Ent., p. 246–251, is the same insect described by myself two years since in the Synonymical Catalogue, p. 143, as follows : Limenitis Misippus “var. a. Floridensis, nob.—The form found in Florida and other parts of the extreme south. Whilst our more northern form is of the same color as Danais Plexippus, this southern variety exactly mimics in its dark coloration Danais Berenice, with which it associates.”
