A southern form, in which the primaries are dark brown, shaded 

 with whitish, as in the type, but with the median band of secondaries 

 very narrow, sometimes reduced to a mere line, and never reaching 

 the anal margin. On the under side, the crimson shade is deeper 

 than in the typical C Ultronia, and distributed over the whole surface 

 of the wing. Florida. 4^,3 Q.

In this, the light gray shading on the outer half of primaries is 

 wanting, the brownish ground color being distributed over the whole 

 surface, with only the reniform, a basal streak, and the sub-marginal 

 dentated line whitish.

I wish to correct my description of this form (Bull. Brook. Ent. 

 Soc, vol. ii., p. 95) by adding that in the type the secondaries are 

 yellowish red, while in this they are rosy crimson. C. Verrilliana 

 has been recently taken in large numbers in Colorado by Mr. B. 

 Neumoegen, his examples agreeing with the Texan type, while Mr. 

 Baron has forwarded several specimens of the form C. Ophelia. The 

 latter name will apply to the Californian specimens, in which the sec- 

 ondaries are always crimson and the primaries various shades of gray.'

Larger than C. Verrilliana, which it somewhat resembles, but dif- 

 fering in the following characters: The lines are heavier, and widely 

 edged with brownish shades. The basal line and the dark basal 

 shade, so strongly marked in C. Verrilliana, are absent. The t. a. line 

 is very heavy velvety black, widening much upon the costa, and less 

 oblique than in C. Verrilliana. The t. p. is outwardly broadly edged 

 with brown, in the middle is a light fawn-colored patch, and near the 

 internal margin a black dash connecting it with the t. a. line. Second- 

 aries, bright rosy crimson, marginal band proj:>ortionately very broad, 

 and only slightly waved inwardly. The median band is moderate in
