Expanse, 20 to 25 mm. = 0.80 to 1.00 inch. 



Habitat — Colorado (Brace); Denver, June 20 (Oslar). 



Six specimens, evenly divided as to sex, and I liave seen others. The 

 species is allied to cumatilis in appearance and has been confused witli 

 it; bnt it is obvionslj^ distinct by the large, prominent reniform and 

 the very even margins of all the maculation. The gray color lias the 

 appearance of being veiled by a faint wasli of white.

Head yellow in front. Vertex and thorax a mixture of creamy and

 mixed with deep rust brown at base. Then silvery white to a broad 

 median band which is similarly ocherous and brown, outwardly a little

 oval, brown reniform. Beyond this band and reniform spot the wing 

 is again silvery to the powdery, rusty brown, broken, subterminal line, 

 beyond which it is creamy white. There is a rusty brown spot on the 

 margin below the apex, and a series of brown terminal marks extends 

 halfway to the hind angle. Secondaries white, with a narrow, slightly
