Structure otherwise as de- scribed for P. texanus. Black. Wings orange with the base and apex infuscate, to entirely black, according to the subspecies; head and thorax with a faint purple iridescence. There are two subspecies, one in the Southwestern States and the other from eastern Kansas to Alabama. 2a.
