154 SMALL SKIPPEB: 



the base and lower edge dusky, the outer corner greenish. The hind 

 wings are also of a bronzed greenish hue, the lower inside corner 

 orange. 



The female wants the black bar, and there is no dusky colour about 

 the base. In other respects she resembles the male. 



The caterpillar, which is of solitary habits, is of a deep green colour, 

 with a dark line down the back, and two whitish lines along the sides, 

 edged with black. It has two white patclies on the under side of the 

 tenth and eleventh segments. 



The chrysalis is of a green colour, and is enclosed in a slight cocoon. 



The engraving is from specimens in my own cabinet.
