Butterfly.--The plate gives a good representation of the male and the female of this pretty species, which may at a glance be distinguished from all its allies by the broad orange-red band on the hind wings, marked by small black spots. On the under side it is marked much as L. melissa. Expanse, .90-1.10 inch.

Early Stages.--Unknown.

It is found from Arizona to Washington and Montana.
