There are over 50 females from various British Columbia, Alberta, 

 California, Oregon, Utah, Wyoming, North Dakota, and Arizona 

 localities that possibly may belong to this species but which I have 

 not been able definitely to distinguish from H. pacifictos. As Gurney 

 (1948) stated, there seems to be no dependable differential feature in 

 the female between the two species. On the whole, the forewing 

 seems to be slightly more rounded at apex in H. neadelphus than in 

 H. pacificus.
