Published online by Cambridge University Press: 31 May 2012
Extract
1. Danais archippus, Fab. A few migrants seen almost every yeat. June. Have never seen a locally-bred specimen.
2. Euptoieta claudia, Cram. Two specimens on Pine Creek, July, 1897, and June, 1900; probably migrants. Lacombe, June 29th, 1900 (Gregson).
3. Argynnis cybele, Fab. Not common; very rare in some seasons. In the hills, July and August; Lacombe, June 29th (Gregson). Mr. Elwes has seen this form and considers it correctly named. It resembles cybele that I have from Iowa, but is slightly smaller.
3a. [A. leto, Behr. Recorded by Geddes from Macleod. The record may perhaps refer to cybele.]
4. A. cypris, Edw. Not common. July and August. Whatever may be the correct name for this species, it is certainly distinct from anything else here listed.
