Var sexpustulata n. var.=r=-4. bipnnctata var. sexpustitlata. 



The black humeral spot within the reddish humeral area places it as variety of this 

 species rather than as A. frigida. Hood River, Oregon. 



Var. ocellata n. var. 



Specimens with the black pigment revealing 2 light spots on the dark ground instead 



of 1 as above. Hood River, Oregon. 

 Var. humeralis n. var.oA. bipunctata var. quadrimaculata. 



The black humeral spot within the humeral reddish area place it as a variety of this 

 species rather than A. frigida. Widely distributed. 



Most of the species of the dark varieties given above are in the Schwarz 

 collection of the U. S. National Museum, and were collected at Hood River, 

 Oregon. They seem rare elsewhere, but this may be because they were 

 more diligently sought there. 



The pronotum of this species shows variation closely parallel to that of 

 A. frigida. So far I have seen only the patterns given in fig. 72. The 

 other patterns of A. frigida may, I believe, be looked for in this species 

 when larger series become available. 



The legs of this species (at least of its light varieties) in Spokane 

 County, Washington, are uniformly yellowish-brown and there is an area 

 of the same color on the ventral surface of each segment of the abdomen, 

 which in A. frigida is nearly black. Larvae brought from Washington to 

 Cold Spring Harbor emerged here with the western color. None were 

 raised in the East, however, from the egg.
