The under side is accurately depicted in the plate. Expanse, inch. Early Stages.âThese have been elaborately de- scribed by Scudder in his great work. The cater- pillars feed upon pine. The Banded Eifin is found from Nova Scotia to Colorado, in the Northern States, where its food-plant occurs, but is never abundant. (34) Thecla affinis, Edwards, Plate XXX, Fig. 3, ?, under side (The Green-winged Hair- streak). Butterfly.âOn the upper side closely resem- bling the following species. On the under side the wings are uniformly bright green. Expanse, inch. Early Stages.âThese await description. The types came from Utah. I also have specimens from California.

On the under side both wings are green, the primaries having a short straight band of white spots on the outer third, and the secondaries a small white spot on the costa beyond the middle, and two or three conspicuous white spots near the anal angle. Expanse, inch. Early Stages.âThe eggs are laid on the unopened flower- heads of Hosackia argopbylla. This is all we know of the life- history. The species ranges from Oregon and California eastward as far as Colorado. (36) Thecla Iseta, Edwards, Plate XXIX, Fig. 2^, $ ; Fig. 24, i, under s
