Plate 34 shows one of these larvae resting on a blossom of Eri- ogonum. The right-hand portion of the flower is growing. The left-hand portion is a larva, covered over by bits of blossoms which it has fas- tened to its back. In plate 35 this larva has been removed and placed on a twig without disturbing its cov- ering. This larva, when mature, meas- ures approximately 14 mm. It ranges in color from a pale buff with various areas laved with ma- roon, to a deep buff heavily marked and striped with reddish brown. The pale type may be briefly described as follows: Body, pale buff. A thin mid- dorsal maroon band showing on the segmental junctures, and center of each segment.
