xlv, '34] ENTOMOLOGICAL NEWS 193 ernor's Spring to [Monument Peak. Both sexes were in abun-dance and about this date one may figure the species is present in the greatest numbers. On July 14th. with two sons and LeRoy Dudley as our guide, the writer, ascending by the Par-son's Trail, took a dozen somewhat rubbed and worn speci-mens. The first captures were made a half mile above the Saddle and successively all the way up to Monument Peak at an elevation of 5268 feet. Proceeding along the Knife Edge specimens on the wing were occasionally noted as far as Chim-ney Peak. Dropping down into the little grassy hollow that separates Chimney Peak from Pamola, we lunched. A remark-ably clear day without wind was of material benefit in out-collecting. \Ye took six presentable specimens al this point. Proceeding up Pamela Peak additional specimens were seen and taken all the way down to Index Rock which is at an elevation of approximately 3700 feet. On August 1st, Air. D. "\Y. Farquhar ascended by the Abol Trail to find a cloud on the summit and reported he saw no specimens of O. katalidin flying. Although not a fair day to test collecting, Mr. Farquhar believes the season for the but-terfly had terminated. Tf one is so fortunate as to get favorable weather in the early part of July the time devoted to search for this species is an interesting adventure. From the Northern Peaks to Monu-ment PeAk, around the Knife Fdge to Pamola and halfway down there are inspiring views of the Great Basin which will well repay a visit. Some day it will be interesting to discover if this species inhabits the top of Traveller Mountain whose summit is at the same elevation as Index Rock on Pamola.
