more or less distinctly marbled with jjrayish-white and blackish-brown, 

 in my specimens more distinctly in the 9 ; occasionally in cell 5, very 

 seldom in cell 2, and in one instance before me also in cell 3, very small, 

 indistinct, generally very faintly gray-pupilled eyes; in the example 

 which has an eye in cell 3, that eye is but a dot, those of cells 2 and r\ 

 large, oval, blind; in one % with Moschler's etiquette of " Cramhia" 

 there is a very indistinct, indefinite hairy spot on the median nervure 

 as in C. Bore. Secondaries much like the primaries, more dusky on 

 the basal half, paler in a submarginal band, in which are generally dis- 

 tinct, small, yellowish-white or ochre-yellow spots in the interspaces, 

 with a blackish-brown or blackish submarginal band condensing into 

 spots between the nervules; sometimes the markings of the under sur- 

 face, and sometimes even the outer limit of the band, show through 

 scarcely at all upon the upper surface, while in other cases all of the 

 markings are plainly seen, especially on the outer half. 



Beneath. Primaries scarcely paler than the upper surface; some- 

 times not at all, sometimes considerably, flecked with blackish-brown, 

 occasionally condensing into minute ti'ansverse streaks, more abundant 

 on the outer half of the wing ; whole costal edge distinctly marbled 

 with black and white; apex flecked or marbled with gi-ayish-white and 

 blackish-brown, seldom encroaching on the 5th cell ; occasionally the 

 cross nervule closing the cell narrowly edged with black ; the eyes of 

 the upper surface sometimes repeated beneath, and then similar in cha- 

 racter; the individual before noted with the hu-ge spots, however, ha^ 

 them distinctly white-pupilled beneath. SccDiiihiries: basal portion ,i> 

 far as the band either nearly uniformly marbled with grayish-white and 

 blackish-brown, but with the darker colors slightly in excess near the 

 base, or distinctly darker next the base, and only distinctly 

 gray in a baud bordering the middle band which is very 

 broad next the outer border and sometimes only linear next 

 )the inner border; in my specimens the former is generally 

 the case in the 9 , the latter iu the S , but I question whe- 

 ther a larger number of specimens would exhibit the same distinctions: 

 the middle band is considerably darker, generally quite narrowly edged 

 with blackish, within marbled with blackish and reddish-brown, the 

 lighter colors gradually less distinct next the border; the band is not 

 so broad as usual ; its inner border passes in a regular curve from the 

 inner border of the wing to the middle of the cell, not reaching so far 

 outward as the divarication of the median nervure ; from here it is bent 

 al)ruptly toward the base and forms a bvuad. nnimled and considerable
