Butterfly.--Uniformly dark blackish-brown on both sides of the wings, with no spots or markings.

Early Stages.--These have been partially described and figured by Edwards.

This species has thus far been found only in Colorado at an elevation of from ten to twelve thousand feet above sea-level.

There are two or three other species of this obscure genus, but they are rare boreal insects, of which little is as yet known.
