(2) Atrytone zabulon (Boisduval & Leconte), Plate CXLVIIL 

 Fig. 1, d" (The Zabulon Skipper). 



Very closely related to the following species from which it 

 may be distinguished by its somewhat smaller size and the 

 presence of the heavier dark markings at the apex of the fore 

 wings above. Expanse 1.25-1.50 inch. 



Ranges from New England to Georgia and westward to the 

 Rocky Mountains. 



(3) Atrytone hobomok (Harris), Plate CXLVIII, Fig. 2, d"; 

 variety pocohontas Scudder, Plate CXLVIII, Fig. 3, 9 (The 

 Hobomok Skipper). 



In the male the small apical spots are not enclosed by a 

 band of dark color as in the preceding species, and the pale 

 area on the middle of the hind wings is more restricted, the 

 inner margin of this wing being more widely fuscous. The 

 variety of the female called pocohontas by Dr. Scudder is 

 melanic, and is, as shown in our figure, very dark with con- 

 spicuous light spots in the fore wing. Expanse 1 .25-1 .50 inch. 



Ranges from New England southward and westward over 

 the greater part of the Atlantic region and the valley of the 

 Mississippi.
