Tryon Reakirt on Color ail ian Butterflies. 147 



of these is divided by a slender white bar : between these and the 

 margin another row of six or seven obloug brownish dashes, forming 

 an almost continuous line. 



The secondaries, have the base powdered with greenish-blue atoms; 

 near to which, there is a transverse row of three rounded spots, one 

 just below the upper third of the costa, another within the cell, and 

 the third on the abdominal margin, at about half its length; an ob- 

 long discoidal streak ; and two transverse macular rows, the inner of 

 seven large rounded spots, the last sometimes geminate ; the outer, 

 minute, and of sagittate form; all these markings more or less encir- 

 cled with white. 



Expanse 1.25-1. 38 inches S; 1.22-1.40 inches ?. 



Antennae black annul a ted with white. 



" Most probably an alpine variety of Seepiolus, Boisd." Edwards 

 in litt. 



Having since received undoubted specimens of Sxpiolus from Cali- 

 fornia, I find that they are very distinct, and constant in their differ- 

 ences throughout a long series of specimens which I have received. 



Lycaena Rustica. Edwards. 



Hub. — Pike's Peak, Colorado Territory, (Coll. Tryon Eeakirt.) 



Lycaena Anna, Edwards. 



Hab. — Rocky Mountains, Colorado Territory. California, (Coll. 

 Tryon Reakirt.) 



Lycaena Lycea. Edwards. 



Hab. — Rocky Mountains, Colorado Terr., (Coll. Tryon Reakirt.) 



Lycaena Antaegon, Boisd. sp. 



Hub. — Rocky Mountains, Colorado Territory; California, (Coll. 



Tryon Reakirt.) 



My specimens of these, do not differ from Author's descriptions. 

 The wings of Acmon. Westwood (from the figure,) differ in shape 

 from those which I have identified as Antaegon and would seem to in- 

 dicate a distinct species, although the coloration of their tipper surfaces 

 is nearly similar.* 



* Lycaena Cajona. nov. sp. 



Upper side, violet blue with a pink tinge; a narrow terminal black line, an 

 beyond a white fringe. 



Underneath, ashy-white, with a bluish tinge at the base. Primaries, with a 

 narrow discoidal arc; two round spots on the medio-central, and anterior inter- 

 spaces, both black : and a double transverse sub-marginal macular row, 

 brownish.
