The Strymon species now called falacer Godt., but until recently better known as calanus Hbn. was the subject, in the days of Scudder and Grote, of much controversy. It is not my intention at the present time to enter into the details of this discussion and the names involved; suffice to say that, after a careful study of the literature, I am of the opinion that the present synonym, as given in the 1937 Check List, is correct. The species has been figured on various occasions, but probably the most reliable figure is that given by Austin Clark (Butterflies of the District of Columbia and Vicinity, Pl. XXIV, Fig. 7, 8).
