NOTES ON THE BUTTERFLIES OF SIOUX COUNTY, NEBRASKA

Neligh, Neb.

Extract

While connected with expeditions sent out by the Department of Entomology and Ornithology, University of Nebraska, it has been the writer's good fortune to spend a portion of the summers of 1900 and 1901 in the extreme north-western corner of Nebraska in collecting the insects, birds and mammals of the region. Naturally the butterflies, the study of which has been something of a “hobby” with him for some years past, came in for no little share of attention.
