Barnes' Crescent-spot

Plate XVIII — Barnes' Crescent-spot is Fig. 5
Plate XVIII — Barnes' Crescent-spot is Fig. 5

Butterfly, male.--Very like the following species, with the light fulvous of the upper side of the wings more widely extended, causing the dark markings to be greatly restricted. The figure in the plate is, in this species as in most others, that of the type, and I am under obligations to Dr. Skinner for kind permission to have the use of the specimen. Expanse, 1.75 inch.

The type came from Colorado Springs.
