THE LEPIDOPTERIST 



73 



wing expanse. Our specimens of both sexes show a 

 variation in expanse of from \y& to VA inches. 



Described from one male and ten females, taken at 

 8500 to 9000 feet elevation, in the Monache Meadows 

 of Tulare County, California, during August of 1917. 

 The district is about 25 miles south of Mount 

 Whitney. 



Types in the author's collection at the Southwest 

 Museum, Los Angeles. 



A differential table of the three forms follows. 



(Omitted from lack of space.) 



Monache is not reported north of Mt. Whitney or 

 south into the Tehachapi range, and would seem to be 

 confined to the high valleys of Tulare County im- 

 mediately south of Mt. Whitney. 



No related forms are found in the desert regions 

 adjoining unless it be close to the Arizona border, 

 where no doubt typical pola may later be reported. 



Xanthotype crocataria Fabricius 



With descriptions of new species

(Continued from page 39) 



I have endeavored to. 

 give an idea of the geni-j 

 talia of Xanthotype cro- 

 cataria Fabricius male 

 and female, but it seems 

 impossible to include all 

 the minute details in an 

 engraving. However, 

 the important characters 

 show well and the spe- 

 cies may easily be sepa- 

 rated.
