30 THE CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST. 



the outer end of the cell, a narrow transverse bar ; the stigma long, nar- 

 row, a little sinuous on the middle, black, edged in the middle by rough 

 dark brown scales on either side. 



Secondaries have an abbreviated discal row of indistinct, small yellow 

 spots, placed nearly parallel to the hind margin, and restricted to the 

 discoidal and median interspaces, or very nearly so; in the middle of the 

 cell a small yellowish spot, almost obsolete ; fringes cinereous, those of 

 secondaries lighter than the others. 



Under side of both wings brown with a russet tint ; primaries some- 

 what fuscous near base, in and below cell, and pale yellow in the 

 submedian interspace ; the spots repeated except the lower of the three, 

 which is lost in the color of the interspace just mentioned ; secondaries 

 have the discal spots more distinct, yellowish, and there appear faint 

 traces of obsolete spots which would complete the series to costal margin ; 

 the cellular spot small, distinct, rounded. 



Body above brown, below the thorax gray-brown, about the collar 

 yellow tipped ; abdomen yellow-gray ; legs brown ; palpi sordid white, 

 gray at tips ; antennae fuscous above, grayish below ; club fuscous for a 

 narrow space on upper side, elsewhere russet.

 orado, at Ute Pass, while in charge of the Kansas University Scientific 

 Expedition, 1876. No others were taken, as I am informed. 



The species is near Leo/iardus, from which it differs in not having the 

 basal area of primaries fulvous, in not having two spots near hind margin 

 in the discoidal interspace, in having the spots translucent instead of ful- 

 vous, and in having a distinct spot at end of cell ; the stigma of Leonardiis 

 differs considerably also, being heavier, somewhat curved, and especially 

 broken in on the lower median nervule, of which the posterior part is 

 thrown back of the line of the remainder ; the spots on disk of second- 

 aries in Leonardus are placed as in the present species, but are larger, and 

 either quite distinct or largely diffuse, examples varying. The under side 

 of Leonardus is more red (cinnamon-brown), and the series of spots on 

 secondaries is complete and distinct, as is also the cellular spot. In these 

 wings the resemblance between the two species is closer than elsewhere. 

 They form a very interesting group.
