 opposite end of cell. Secondaries orange ochraceous with a black 

 spot near anal angle. Head ocherous, thorax yellowish white,

Marked like clymene except that there is no projection from 

 the band on inner margin, and there are the following additional 

 bands : — a brown band from inner third of costa to above internal 

 angle ; another from near middle of costa to below internal angle 

 crossing the former. A third from above the junction of the first 

 to just below apex. This latter band is projected toward costa 

 and outer margin forming sometimes a fourth band from outer 

 fourth of costa to middle of outer margin. These bands may be 

 more or less absent, and in the var. cotiscita the wings are immacu- 

 late. Expanse, 55 mm. 



Habitat, Southern Atlantic States to Texas.

* This name evidently applies to no natural species. Both Iccoiilei and 

 reversa and perhaps also contiifiia produce forms without any black marks, which 

 are indistinguishable by maculation. Since the wAiwe fiilvicosta covers portions of 

 two or more species, we propose to restrict it to the white variety of lecontei, and 

 suggest a new name for the corresponding form of reversa.
