The larger number of specimens examined are males and 

 the above descriptions refer to males only, the females not pre- 

 senting any discoverable differences except in size. The males 

 differ in expanse from 14 mm. to 25 mm., the smallest speci- 

 mens being from Pasadena, Los Angeles and Havilah, Califor- 

 nia, and from Las \^egas, Nevada. The largest came from 

 Provo, L'tah. The specimens taken in July are all large and are 

 the only ones having fulvous on the underside of the primaries. 

 These are evidently a second brood, the first appearing in May. 



Enopfes may be taken as the species, having been described 

 previous to the other two. The black border varies consider- 

 ably in width, being from i mm. to 2 mm. One specimen from 

 Fort Klamath, Oregon, has the border 3 mm. in width. The 

 amount of orange on the underside of secondaries varies con- 

 siderably and in some specimens it is entirely absent. Variety
