(6) Lemonias palmeri, Edwards, Plate XXVIII, Fig. 11, ♂ (Palmer's Metal-mark).
Butterfly.—Smaller than any of the preceding species. The ground-color of the wings is mouse-gray, spotted with white; on the under side the wings are whitish-gray, laved with pale red at the base of the fore wings. The white spots of the upper side reappear on the under side. Expanse, .75-.95 inch.
Early Stages.—These are, so far as they have been worked out by Edwards, quite similar in many respects to those of the preceding species.
The range of the species is from Utah southward to Mexico.
(7) Lemonias zela, Butler, Plate XXVIII, Fig. 17, ♂; Fig. 18, ♁ (Zela).
Butterfly.—The upper side of both sexes is delineated in the plate. On the under side the wings are pale red, marked with a few black spots, representing on the under side the markings of the upper side. Of these, the spots of the median and submarginal bands are most conspicuous. Expanse, 1.00-1.35 inch.
(a) Lemonias zela, Butler, var. cleis, Edwards, Plate XXVIII, Fig. 19, ♂; Fig. 20, ♁ (Cleis).
The pale variety, cleis, is sufficiently well represented in our plate to need no description. On the under side it is like L. zela.
The species occurs in Arizona and Mexico.
Genus CALEPHELIS, Grote and Robinson
