(5) Cœnonympha ampelos, Edwards, Plate XXV, Fig. 21, ♂, under side; Fig. 30, ♂ (The Ringless Ringlet).
Butterfly.—Distinguished from its allies by the total absence of ocelli on both wings, above and below. Otherwise the species is very near ochracea.
Early Stages.—These have been described with minute accuracy by Edwards in the "Canadian Entomologist," vol. xix, p. 41.
Ampelos occurs from Nevada and Montana westward to Vancouver's Island.
(6) Cœnonympha kodiak, Edwards, Plate XXV, Fig. 22, ♁ (The Alaskan Ringlet).
Butterfly.—Much darker both on the upper and under sides than C. california, which in many other respects it resembles. The figure in the plate is that of the type. It is as yet rare in collections.
Early Stages.—Nothing is known of these. It is found in Alaska.
(7) Cœnonympha pamphiloides, Reakirt, Plate XXV, Fig. 27, ♁, under side; Fig. 31, ♂ (The Utah Ringlet).
Butterfly.—Rather larger than the other species of the genus found in North America. Easily distinguished by the marginal row of ocelli on the secondaries, which are always present, though often "blind," that is to say, without a distinct dark pupil. The author of the species named it from a supposed likeness to the European C. pamphilus. The resemblance is only superficial. C. pamphilus is a much smaller insect and much more plainly marked, judging from the large series of specimens I have received from various European localities. Pamphilus has no eye-spots on the hind wings. They are a conspicuous feature of pamphiloides, more so than in any other North American species except C. haydeni.
Early Stages.—Unknown.
