2. Argynnis Oweni, n. sp.
Male—Expands 2.25 inches.
Upper dull side red-fulvous, not much obscured by brown at base; the markings rather heavy, the two marginal lines on both wings more or less confluent. Under side of primaries either yellow-buff from base to the row of ronded spots, the nervules being red-brown, or the interspaces are very ligtly washed with this colour over the buff ground; the subapical patch dark brown with a small imperfectly silvered spot; the five submarginal spots also are of same character; sometimes the silver is wholly wanting.
* I am able to say, on revising these proofs, that I got two of the larvæ through he winter. One has passed two moults since waking up, the other still sleeps.
