dull olive, with spots of upper side repeated; costa of male edged with
red on this side as well as above. Expanse 1.00-2.07 inches.
Ranges from Canada to the Gulf, west to the Rocky Mountains.
(2) _Limochores pontiac_ (Edwards), Plate CXLV, Fig. 3, ♂; Fig. 4, ♀
(Pontiac’s Skipper).
Well represented in our figures of both sexes. Expanse 1.15-1.25 inch.
Ranges from Massachusetts to Nebraska, being very common about the
southern end of Lake Michigan.
(3) _Limochores palatka_ (Edwards), Plate CXLV, Fig. 5, ♂ (The Palatka
Skipper). (See p. 217.)
A large and rather showy species, the female expanding as much as two
inches. Expanse, ♂, 1.50 inch; ♀, 1.90-2.00 inches.
Found on Indian River, Florida.
GENUS EUPHYES SCUDDER
[Illustration: PL. CXLVI]
(1) _Euphyes verna_ (Edwards), Plate CXLVI, Fig. 1, ♂; Fig. 2, ♀ (The
Vernal Skipper).
Below wings paler, inclining to purplish red, about middle of hind
wings a semicircle of pale spots. Expanse 1.15-1.35 inch.
Ranges from southern New England to Virginia, west to Kansas, and north
to Alberta. Very common in Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois.
(2) _Euphyes metacomet_ (Harris), Plate CXLVI, Fig. 3, ♂; Fig. 4, ♀
(The Dun Skipper).
The markings of upper side reappear on lower side, the ground-color
below ranging from pale brown to purplish brown. Expanse 1.15-1.30
inch.
Found from Quebec to the Carolinas, west to Texas and Alberta and
Assiniboia.
GENUS POANES SCUDDER
(1) _Poanes massasoit_ (Scudder), Plate CXLVI, Fig. 5, ♂; Fig. 6, ♀
(The Mulberry-wing).
Below hind wings bright yellow, bordered on costa and outer margin with
reddish brown; the wings of the female not so brightly colored as those
of the male. Expanse 1.15-1.20 inch.
Ranging from New England to Nebraska, but not extending south of
Pennsylvania in the east, though occurring in the west in Colorado and
northern Texas.
GENUS PHYCANASSA SCUDDER
[Illustration: PL. CXLVII]
(1) _Phycanassa viator_ (Edwards), Plate CXLVII Fig. 1, ♂; Fig. 2, ♀
(The Broad-winged Skipper).
Below paler than above, the light spots of the upper side reappearing
less distinctly; the hind wing traversed from base to middle of outer
margin by a light-colored longitudinal ray which is not as plain in the
female as in the male. Expanse 1.45-1.60 inch.
Rare in the Northern States from New Jersey to Wisconsin, but quite
abundant in the Southern States as far west as Texas.
(2) _Phycanassa aaroni_ Skinner, Plate CXLVII, Fig. 3, ♂ (Aaron’s
Skipper). (See p. 219.)
Below fore wings black at base, middle area tawny, paler than
above, with the outlines of the borders the same, but their color
cinnamon-brown, and not fuscous, as above; hind wings below uniformly
cinnamon-brown, without any spots. Female like the male, but larger.
Expanse 1.00-1.25 inch.
Found in the salt marshes near Cape May, New Jersey, but probably has a
wider range to the south.
GENUS ATRYTONE SCUDDER
(1) _Atrytone vitellius_ (Smith & Abbot), Plate CXLVII, Fig. 4, ♂; Fig.
5, ♀ (The Iowa Skipper).
Below the wings are pale yellow, the inner margin of the fore wings
clouded with brown. Expanse 1.25-1.45 inch.
Common in the Gulf States, ranging north to Iowa and Nebraska.
[Illustration: PL. CXLVIII]
(2) _Atrytone zabulon_ (Boisduval & Leconte), Plate CXLVIII, Fig. 1, ♂
(The Zabulon Skipper).
Very closely related to the following species from which it may be
distinguished by its somewhat smaller size and the presence of the
heavier dark markings at the apex of the fore wings above. Expanse
1.25-1.50 inch.
Ranges from New England to Georgia and westward to the Rocky Mountains.
(3) _Atrytone hobomok_ (Harris), Plate CXLVIII, Fig. 2, ♂; variety
_pocohontas_ Scudder, Plate CXLVIII, Fig. 3, ♀ (The Hobomok Skipper).
In the male the small apical spots are not enclosed by a band of dark
color as in the preceding species, and the pale area on the middle of
the hind wings is more restricted, the inner margin of this wing being
more widely fuscous. The variety of the female called _pocohontas_ by
Dr. Scudder is melanic, and is, as shown in our figure, very dark with
conspicuous light spots in the fore wing. Expanse 1.25-1.50 inch.
Ranges from New England southward and westward over the greater part of
the Atlantic region and the valley of the Mississippi.
GENUS LEREMA SCUDDER
[Illustration: PL. CXLIX]
(1) _Lerema accius_ (Smith & Abbot), Plate CXLIX, Fig. 1, ♂ (The Grimy
Skipper).
The wings on the under side are dark fuscous clouded with still deeper
brown or black. Expanse 1.40-1.50 inch.
Occurs from Connecticut to Central America, being quite rare in the
north but very common in the hot lands of the south.
(2) _Lerema hianna_ (Scudder), Plate CXLIX, Fig. 2, ♂ (The Dusted
Skipper).
The upper side is well represented in our figure. On the under side the
wings are a little paler, especially the hind wings, which on their
outer half are dusted with gray, in certain lights having a bluish
cast. Expanse 1.15-1.25 inch.
Ranges from New England to Nebraska and southward, but, so far as the
writer knows not reaching the Gulf States.
SUBFAMILY MEGATHYMINÆ (THE GIANT SKIPPERS).
These curious insects have been by some writers placed among the
_Castniidæ_, a family of day-flying moths, but as the author stated in
1898 in “The Butterfly Book,” they appear to have much more in common
with the Hesperiidæ than the Castniidæ. The proposition to include them
in the Hesperiidæ as a subfamily under the name given above has since
that time been generally accepted by systematists. There are a number
of species belonging to the genus _Megathymus_, several of which occur
within our faunal limits, but we shall content ourselves with figuring
only the one, which those readers of this book who live in Missouri and
south and west of that state are likely to see.
GENUS MEGATHYMUS RILEY
[Illustration: PL. CL]
(1) _Megathymus yuccæ_ (Boisduval & Leconte), Plate CL, ♀ (The Yucca
Skipper).
The caterpillar of this species is a wood-borer, feeding in the pith
and on the underground roots of different species of _Yucca_. The
life history has been beautifully worked out by the late Prof. C. V.
Riley, who published a full account of his observations in his “Eighth
Annual Report of the State Entomologist of Missouri,” pp. 169 _et
seq._, and in the “Transactions of the St. Louis Academy of Science,”
Vol. III, pp. 323 _et seq._ The student will do well to refer to these
interesting papers. The figure we give on the plate is that of a female
specimen bred by Professor Riley in Missouri and presented by him to
the late W. H. Edwards, whose collection is now the property of the
writer.
