In this species there are several variations in the convergence of the 

 inner keels of the front, in the angle of the hind border of the prothorax, in 

 the form of the hand of the hind wings, and in their breadth. The speci- 

 mens from the Rocky Mountains are distinguished by their small size, by 

 their whitish hind tibiae, by their paler fore wings, and by the narrower band
