I have observed the egg laying of the following species of Lepidoptera in the vicinity of the Yosemite Valley, California.:-

Danais archippus.—Oviposits on the tender leaves near the flower bud of Gomphocarpus cordifolius.

Argynnis epithore.On the underside of the leaves of Viola ocellata.

Argynnis egleis (Highland variety).—On pine burrs, pine leaves, sticks and stones, on the shaded side and as far underneath as is possible for the ♀ to get.
