Rustic Blue
Butterfly.--Much like the preceding species, but a third larger, and brighter blue on the upper side of the wings of the male. On the under side the disposition of the spots and markings is precisely as in L. aquilo, but on the secondaries the dark spots and shades are all replaced by white on a pale-gray ground. Expanse, .90-1.00 inch.
Early Stages.--We are in complete ignorance as to these.
The butterfly is found in British America and on the Western Cordilleras.
