This fine species was described from a single male. A male 

 specimen was taken in Coy Glen, Ithaca, N. Y., June 20, 1910, by 

 Miss Anna H. Morgan. Another male in Simmon's woods, Glovers-

 wings uniting Rn-i with M,. A second female was taken at Sugar 

 Grove, Fairfield Co., 0., May 19, 1901, by Prof. J. S. Hine; the 

 female never having been described, I make this specimen the
