Martial Hair-streak
Butterfly.--The insect figured in the plate, which may easily be recognized by its under side, has been determined by Dr. Skinner to be the above species. My specimens coming from the Edwards collection are labeled Thecla acis, female. They were taken at Key West. A comparison with the under side of T. acis will reveal the great difference. Expanse, 1.00 inch.
Early Stages.--Unknown.
Habitat, southern Florida and Cuba.
