Corresponding to these three purple forms were three reds: (1) a bicolor red known as Painted Lady (Pl.
The three purple forms were (1) the wild bicolor purple with blue wings known in cultivation as the Purple Invincible (Pl.
On this notation our six coloured forms are:-- (1) Purple bicolor CRBLI.
We have already seen that the loss of the blue or purple factor (B) from the wild bicolor results in the formation of the red bicolor known as Painted Lady (Pl.
This may be readily seen by comparing the picture of the purple bicoloron Plate II.
It will be noticed in this series that the various coloured {82} forms can be expressed by the omission of one or more factors from the purple bicolor of the wild type.
The omission of the factor for the erect standard (E) from the purple bicolor (Pl.
The horticultural possibilities of Bicolor are probably much the same as those of Æstivalis, although many think it to be more promising for the North.
The habitat of Bicolor is to the north of that of Æstivalis, occupying the northeastern, whereas Æstivalis occupies the southeastern quarter of the United States.
Like Æstivalis, Bicolordoes not thrive on limy soils and it is difficult to propagate from cuttings.
The horticultural characters ofBicolor are much the same as those of Æstivalis.
The horticultural characters of Bicolor are much the same as those of Aestivalis.
The horticultural possibilities of Bicolor are probably much the same as those of Aestivalis, though many believe it to be more promising for the North.
The species of Diana is usually given as Labrusca but the Vinifera-like berries and the intermittent tendrils indicate Vinifera and the bloom on the shoots suggests a strain of eitherBicolor or Aestivalis.
Like Aestivalis, Bicolordoes not thrive on limy soils and it is difficult to propagate from cuttings.
It is generally considered to be a Riparia but the continuous tendrils and other botanical characters indicate a strong admixture of Labrusca blood and possibly Aestivalis or Bicolor as the shoots and canes show considerable bloom.
The habitat ofBicolor is to the north of that of Aestivalis, occupying the northeastern, whereas Aestivalis occupies the southeastern quarter of the United States.
Bicolor is readily distinguished from Aestivalis by the absence of the reddish pubescence, and by the bloom on the under side of the leaves and is distinguished from the glaucous form of Lincecumii by the smaller fruit and seeds.
Tail long, up to the length of head and body, as a rule sparsely haired; bicolor in some species.
All phases have a sharper bicolor tail, white beneath and like the rest of the upper body on top.
Another wasp of this genus, unicolor, differed from bicolor in not returning to the nest from the different resting–places, and in walking from one to another of them instead of flying, although the last part of the study was made on the wing.
This little bug–hunting Astata bicolormade her study in a different way from Sphex ichneumonea.
Astata bicolor adopts the same tactics in capturing her bugs, while it is said of the fly–catchers that they commonly overcome their victims without using the sting.

Here also is Cattleya bicolor Measuresiana, an exquisite example of a species always charming to my taste.
