Grapta Progne. Cram. sp. 



Hull.— - Rocky Mountains, Colorado Territory," Edwards. 

 Grapta Comma, Harris, sp. 



Hab. — Rocky Mountains, Colorado Territory; Phil., (Coll. Tryon 

 Reakirt.) 



My specimens do not differ from others captured in this neighbor- 

 hood : a single example from California, which I refer provisionally 

 to this species has each of the sub-marginal orange tawny lunules upon 

 the hind wing's upper surface, pupilled with a very distinct rounded 

 black dot , in other respects it agrees tolerably well with typical forms. 



There is such an amount of variation common to all the species of 

 this genus, that it is hardly sate to create one upon the peculiarities 

 of a single, or indeed of a series of specimens.
