Our one specimen comes from a region so far removed from the ordinary range of 

 the species that one would scarcely expect it to be the same. It differs from the 

 form common in Colorado only in having slightly smaller heads. The planl is not 

 known from any of the intervening mountain ranges of New Mexico, this locality 

 being in the southwestern part of the State.
