C. rhesus Edwards. 



Occurs in the mountains of Colorado and Mexico at high altitudes. 

 C. cams Edwards. 



Occurs in the Huachuca and Catalina mountains of Arizona. 



Genus COP^ODES Speyer. 

 C. auriantiaca Hewitson. 



Not uncommon in Texas, New Mexico and Arizona. We have 

 been calling it by the name procris Edw. ; but that has been shown to 



be a synonym. 



Genus ANCYLOXYPHA Felder. 

 Synopsis of Species. 



i. Fore wings suffused with blackish 2. 



Fore wings fulvous with blackish outer border arene. 



2. Fore wings with bronzy reflections numitor. 



Fore wings with bluish rejections longleyi. 



A. arene Edwards. 



Occurs in southern Arizona. C. myrtis Edw. (Bulletin 52, U. 

 S. Nat. Mus., no. 477) is a synonym. 

 A. numitor Fabricius. 



Common throughout the eastern United States, flying in grass 

 near water. 

 A. longleyi French. 



Described from one female taken near Chicago. I doubt its dis- 

 tinctness from numitor. Mr. Eongley writes me that it was taken on 

 the prairie away from water, but he suggests that it may have emerged 

 from some barn where it could have been carried-as pupa. If so, the 

 unusual dryness may be the cause of the aberrant coloration of the 

 imago. No second specimen has been met with. 



Genus OARISMA Scudder. 

 Synopsis of Sfecif.s. 



I. Fore wings bright bronzy with dark contrasted fringes edwardsii. 



Fore wings overspread with bronzy; smaller species garita. 



Fore wings broadly bronzy on the costa ; larger species powescheik. 



0. edwardsii Barnes. 



Occurs in Arizona and Colorado. It is hardly more than a race 

 of garita, and may be the hylax of Edwards, as Dr. Barnes points out 

 to me. 

 0. garita Reakirt. 



Occurs in Colorado, Dakota and Manitoba.
