Tht* whitish spots both above and beneath aro obsmire aiui variable, and in some examples these 
spots (litter on tlio letllumd wiiifjs from tliose on the riglilbaiul wings. Tig. 639 is not a good one: the 
spo s are loo clear and too large, and the cell spot there slioAvn is nearly ahvays absent. We anticipate 
the leinale Avill be A’ory similar to a small female j^eroni.
