 total spread of dates is from late spring to late summer. Particularly 

 early and late records are: April 5 in Monterey Co., Calif.; May 12 at 

 Carmel, Calif.; May 29 at Boulder Creek, Calif.; May 31 at Ithaca, 

 N. Y. ; June 10 at Wright, Que. ; August 22 at Ithaca, N. Y. ; August 24 

 at Robson, B. C; August 27 at Cummington, Mass.; August 28 at 

 Lac Mondor, Que.; and September 3 at Cascapedia, Que. This 

 seasonal distribution indicates that there is a single generation per
