EUREMA SALOME IN TEXAS (PIERIDAE)

Within the United States Eurema salome limoneus (Felder and Felder) is definitely known to occur only in Arizona (Klots, 1951, "Field Guide to the Butterflies"). The data on old specimens supposedly collected in Texas is vague and uncertain. In fact, in a list of the butterflies and skippers of Texas reproduced by Xerox in 1963 by R. O. Kendall and H. A. Freeman Eurema salome is not mentioned. Therefore, it was of some interest to find a female of Eurema salome in poor condition among a collection of Texas butterflies donated to the California Insect Survey by J. O. Hunt, of San Diego, California. The specimen was collected by Hunt at Harlingen, Cameron County, Texas on August 18, 1957.—Paul A. Opler, University of California, Berkeley, California.
