ZYG-SNICE. 



Orange spots on pro- and rnetathorax, either or both of which may 

 be absent. Abdomen : the 5th and 6th segments with orange 

 bands ; the anterior segments sometimes with orange lateral spots, 

 which in some specimens form complete rather narrow bands. 

 Tore wing with one or two subbasal hyaline streaks above the 

 subcostal and one below the median nervure ; in some specimens 

 the base of wing is yellowish ; the outer discal area hyaline, which 

 varies in extent from filling the outer part of the cell and the inter- 

 spaces beyond, leaving only the veins and margins black, to slight 

 hyaline streaks between veins 2, 3, 4, and 10, 11, 12, the spots in 

 the end of cell and the interspace below being replaced by ochreous. 

 Hind wing with costal area pale ochreous ; a black patch towards 

 end of cell ; all the interspaces below 7 and beyond with hyaline 

 streaks ; the outer margin ii-regularly black. In the female the 

 hyaline patch is sometimes as complete as in the male, sometimes 

 reduced to three short streaks beyond the cell; the base of the 

 wing being sometimes ochreous. Pectus with yellow spots. 



In typical semihyalina the discal hyaline patches of the fore 

 wing are large ; the irons and tegulse orange ; the abdomen with 

 only two bands : in argyrospila the frons is white, the tegulse 

 white or black, the abdomen with the bands on the proximal seg- 

 ments complete : in hnmeralis the discal patches are much 

 reduced and sometimes almost absent, the tegulee orange, and 

 abdomen with only two bands ; but none of these characters are 

 locally constant. 



Larva reddish brown, the tubercles dark brown ; head and legs 

 red, the anterior somites yellow at sides and below.

$ . Antennae black, white at three-fourths from base ; frons, 

 collar, teguke, the vertex of thorax, and broad segmental band to the 

 abdomen orange. Fore wing orange, the veins and margins black ; 

 the outer part of cell and the interspaces beyond hyaline, leaving 

 a narrow orange band within the black margin. Hind wing orange ; 

 the outer margin black, expanding into a patch near anal angle ;
