In a list of the plants and animals found at Aix, the author gives on p. 41: “Lépidoptères Diurnes. Papilio de la division des Satyrus. Cette espèce conserve encore en partie ses couleurs.” On p. 172 is a Note relative au Lépidoptère figuré (Cyllo sepulta), in which Boisduval’s opinion of its relationship is given.[B] The author’s review of the plants and animals leads him to the generalization that they are analogous to those which now live in dry and arid spots in the south of France.
