Xanthus Skipper
Butterfly.--Resembling the preceding species, but easily distinguished by the larger size of all the spots on the upper side of the wing and the paler under side, the secondaries being marked somewhat as in H. montivaga. Expanse, 1.00 inch.
Early Stages.--Hitherto undescribed.
The species has thus far been received only from southern Colorado, but undoubtedly will be found elsewhere in that portion of the land.
