126 THE CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST. 



shading outside ; t. a. line black, double ; in the female the space between 

 this and the basal line heavily shaded, with the inner part of the line 

 broken on the subcostal and median veins, and the whitish shading 

 reaching the basal line in the form of a triangle ; outer part of t. a. line 

 much heavier than the inner, the enclosed space whitish, the line strongly 

 dentate in two outer and two inner teeth, in this much like C. Californica, 

 but the teeth sharper. T. p. line double, distinct, the two extra discal 

 teeth nearly equal, inner part of line heavy, black, outer part brown, 

 shading into the subterminal brown shade which is faint and indistinct ; 

 s. t. line broken, also its white anterior shade, dentate, the outer dentations 

 capping the white shade, the inner teeth mostly wanting in the line and 

 faint in the white, towards the posterior angle the teeth form dashes with 

 the intervenular lunules ; the lunules distinct ; the reniform brown, with 

 a black annulus, situated in a blackish cloud ; subreniform white, more or 

 less sprinkled with dark scales, pyriform with a point projecting towards 

 base of wing from the upper inner part, closed, with the line connecting 

 with the t. p. line sometimes indistinct ; preceding the reniform is a white 

 or whitish space in the discal cell that reaches the t. a. line in a point ; it 

 is whitish also outside or beyond the reniform to the t. p. line, though 

 this is more indistinct than the white in the cell ; there is also a whitish 

 space outside the t. p. line below the extra-discal teeth ; fringe gray, with 

 a blackish line through the middle. Hind wings red, about the shade of 

 C. Califor?iica, slightly smoky at the base and the fringe of the inner 

 margin ; median band nearly straight, of medium width, much like the 

 band on Californica, slightly constricted in the middle, bent a little at 

 posterior end, but not narrowed into a hook as in Strec/iii, ends abruptly 

 about one-eighth inch before inner margin, without shade in either sex 

 connecting with the margin ; marginal band wide, inner edge straight, to 

 opposite end of median band, then with two prominent teeth, between 

 which is a cavity reaching one-third the distance to outer edge ; apex 

 white, slightly yellowish, but without red, the white space narrow, no other 

 white outside the band ; fringe white, with a gray line that is not distinct 

 throughout. 



The thorax and abdomen as in allied species. The under side much 

 as in C. Caii/omica; fore wings without tinge of red; the s. t. white 

 band quite narrow in its posterior third, a sharp but not long angle on 

 submedian vein ; hind wings with inner two-thirds of light part red ; 

 bands as above, but dentations of marginal band less distinct.
