rows of ochre-yellow dots near the hind margin ; all the 
wings beneath have two rows of dots of the same color 
behind. 
Expands from l T 4 ff to 1 X V inch. 
This skipper* has not been 
described before, but is figured 
in Dr. Boisduval’s work under 
the name above given. It is 
found in the same places and 
at the same times as the pre- 
ceding species, to which also it 
bears a close resemblance in the caterpillar and chrysalis 
states, and lives on the same kind of plants. 
In the skippers which Dr. Boisduval arranges under the 
name of Uudamus , the knobs of the antennae are vex-y long, 
gradually taper to a point, and are suddenly bent like a hook 
in the middle ; the front edge of the fore wings, in the 
males, is doubled over ; the hind wings are often tailed, or 
ai’e furnished with a little projection on the hinder angle; 
the fringes are spotted ; and all the wings are raised when 
at rest. 
Uudamus Tityrus, Fab. Tityrus Skipper. 11 (Plate V. Fig. 1.) 
Wings brown ; first pair with a transverse semi-transpai’ent 
band across the middle, and a few spots towards the tip, of 
a honey-yellow color ; hind wings with a short l’ounded tail 
on the hind angles, and a broad silveiy band across the 
middle of the under side. 
Expands from 2 to 2£ inches. 
This lai’ge and beautiful insect makes its appearance, from 
the middle of June till after the beginning of July, upon 
sweet-scented flowei’s, which it visits during the middle of 
the day. Its flight is vigorous and rapid, and its strength is 
* It is figured in Abbot’s Insects of Georgia as one of the sexes, or a variety, 
of the Juvenalis ; but the sexes of both of these species are known to me.
