Habitat. — Texas, Arizona, Colorado. 



The types are all in the collection of the American Entomological 

 Society. The differences between them consist in the relative distinct- 

 ness of the maculation, the discal and basal black spot of secondaries 

 disappearing entirely in morUia. In retaining the term packardii for 

 this si)ecies instead otmortua, which has j>riority by half a page, I feel 

 sure that I am in accord with Mr. Grote's wishes on the subject.
