426 PROCEEDINGS OF THE ACADEMY OF [April, 



and northern Alabama (Decatur), east as far as southwestern Maine 

 (Scarboro), coast of New Jersey and Raleigh, N. C, west at least to 

 west-central Indiana (Putnam County), and western Wisconsin (Polk 

 County). Its intergradation with /. p. incequalis is known to take 

 place in Indiana, as from that State typical material of each has been 

 taken in addition to other almost intermediate in character. What 

 the distribution of the species in the northern lake States and Ontario 

 is can only be conjectured, but its presence in Polk County, Wisconsin, 

 is evidenced by a typical though rather pale male example. Its ver- 

 tical range appears to extend from sea-level to at least 2,500 feet 

 (Sulphur Springs, N. C). 



The dates on the niateri \\ before us range from May to August. 



Remarks. — In size there is considerable variation in both sexes, 

 apparently without relation to locality, and in coloration the range 

 in intensity is considerable, equally individual in character as far as 

 can be determined. 



The synonymy given for the species had been established by pre- 

 vious authors.
