The structural characteristics of the wings are displayed in Fig. 71. (i) Phragmatobia fuliginosa Linnseus, Plate XIV, Fig. 31,?. (The Ruby Tiger-moth.) Syn. rubricosa Harris. The Ruby Tiger-moth is widely distributed, being found throughout boreal Asia, Europe, and the northern United States and A multitude of minor subvarietal forms have been distinguished, and to some of them names have been ap- plied, but there is compara- tivelv little difference between them, and the student who has once learned to recognize the species will find no difficulty in assigning to it any specimens which may come into his pos- session. The insect, so far as our fauna is concerned, is a northern species, quite common in New England and Canada, and ranging southward along the Appalachian Mountains into the Carolinas, where it only occurs at high elevations above sea-level. It is also found ranging southward along the Rocky Mountains. The caterpillar feeds upon a variety of herbaceous plants, and is partial to the shoots of the golden- rod {Sol id ago).
