  The 
  species 
  was 
  originally 
  described 
  from 
  Glencoe, 
  Dodge 
  County, 
  

   Nebraska. 
  It 
  has 
  since 
  been 
  reported 
  from 
  Manitoba, 
  Minnesota, 
  

   Dakota, 
  Montana, 
  and 
  from 
  Fort 
  McKinuey, 
  Johnson 
  County, 
  Wyo- 
  

   ming, 
  and 
  Kansas 
  by 
  Bruner, 
  from 
  Iowa 
  by 
  Osborn, 
  and 
  Colorado 
  by 
  

   Thomas. 
  "Here 
  in 
  Nebraska," 
  says 
  Bruner, 
  "it 
  is 
  one 
  of 
  our 
  common- 
  

   est 
  species, 
  when 
  one 
  knows 
  where 
  to 
  look 
  for 
  it." 
  It 
  feeds, 
  according 
  

   to 
  the 
  same 
  writer, 
  on 
  what 
  is 
  called 
  in 
  the 
  West 
  "white 
  sage," 
  Arte- 
  

   misia 
  liidoviciana, 
  with 
  which 
  its 
  colors 
  closely 
  correspond.
