And the grasses seemed to chime 



With the music's mellow biirs, 

 While butterflies danced with airy flight 



In the sunlight amber-gleaming. 

 And the flowers were glad that swayed 



In the breeze whose tune 



Was forever ''June."

MOUFKT. 



Imago (8 : 1 ; 13 : 10). Head black, the front with a slender inconspicuous line of 

 yellow hairs on either side, not quite bordering the eyes; from the outer posterior 

 edge of each antenna a broader, slightly oblique, yellow streak runs to the thorax, 

 ■where it strikes a broader band, continuous with it. Antennae uniformly velvety dark 

 brown. Falpi yellow with a few intermingled, long, black scales on the terminal joint. 



Thorax above black, with two broad, lateral, yellow bands commencing at the ter- 

 mination of the yellow streak of the head, including the patagia (excepting their lower 

 edge and extreme base) , and continuing beyond in the long hairs of the metathorax ; 

 beneath yellow, black only in a moderately broad stripe, extending from the middle of 

 the hinder edge of the eye to the middle of the thorax; coxae all covered without 

 with yellow hairs ; rest of legs dark reddish brown, the inferior surface of the femora 

 thinly fringed with long black and yellow hairs ; spines black ; spurs and claws reddish. 



Wings above very bright straw yellow marked with black, the veins of the fore 

 wings, excepting sometimes the submedian and internal nervures, marked and banded 

 with black. Costal margin of fore wings black, moderately flecked with yellow on the 

 basal third, abundantly at the apical band, so as to form a line bordering the first sub- 

 costal nervule above the extremity of the cell ; a black band at the base of the wing 

 curving outward along the subcostal nervure; a broad band crosses the entire wing, 

 narrowing slightly from above downward, nearly straight, but bent slightly at 

 the median nervure, its borders ill-defined by an admixture of black and yellow 

 scales, its exterior border crossing the middle of the cell and striking at (^) or a little 

 outside of f ? ) the base of the flrst median nervule, its width about equal to the median 

 interspaces; another slightly sinuous band of about equal breadth crosses the cell, its 

 Interior border striking at about the origin of the second median nervule ; beyond the 

 cell, it extends to the flrst median nervule or even a little beyond, narrowing as it goes, 

 its interior border continuous with the portion in the cell, its exterior boi-der shooting 

 out lance-shaped lateral extensions a short distance along the second and third median 

 nervules; the interior border of this band, within the cell, is better defined than the 

 rest or than the flrst mentioned band; a third band is narrower than the previous, 

 slightly curved outward, its exterior border well defined; it crosses the extremity of 

 the cell, enclosing the vein at the extremity of the cell in the middle of its interior
