This well-marked species diilers from any other, except E. E<(.ro/i/i, in 

 its coloi' being deep rust-red, with l)lack-brown striga- and l)ands. It is al)ont 

 half the size of P Fa.roxii. It is noticeal)le tor the narrowdy-pectinated an- 

 tennje, the long, large pa![(i, and the tour conspicuous bhuds iiands on the fore 

 wings. It does not vary nuudi, the Colorado female specimen not dilFering 

 from Maine males, except in the more bent and iiroken middle line on the 

 hind wings. Structnrallv, it is nearlv allied to EiifidoiiKi nofafnria.
