Juan in Vera Cruz (coll. Schaus); Guatemata (Conradt, in mus. Staudinger), San 
Juan, Senahu, and San Gerdnimo in Vera Paz, Zapote (Champion); Costa Rica, 
Volcan de Irazu 6000 to 7000 feet (Rogers); Panama, Bugaba 800 to 1500 feet 
(Champion). | 
Apparently a very common insect throughout our region. It varies exceedingly in 
both sexes, from creamy-white to dark brown, but in no one locality is it at all 
constant. Our description and figures are taken from Guatemalan specimens, these 
belonging to the form of which we have the largest number of examples. <A female 
from Bugaba differs from the others in its very dark brown colour; it may prove to be 
specifically distinct. 
We figure a pair from Zapote.
