. The butterflies of the eastern United States. For the use of classes in zoology and private students. Butterflies -- United States Identification. EASTERN UNITED STATES. 381 portion around the anal angle. Body black ; palpi and under side of head gray. Key West, Florida. 200. MEGATHYMTJS Yucos, Bd.—Lee. Expanse of wings from to 3 inches. Male.—Upper surface deep umber-brown, the base of both wings tinged with yellow, the markings yellow. FIG. Megathymus Yuccae, female (natural size). The fore wings have a large spot in the outer end of the cell that is subquadrate; above this in the interspaces are three small spots in an oblique line, but little more than mere dots. Beyond these is a submarginal row of spots which begin in the usual line of anteapical spots about four-fifths the distance from the base to the apex, but the two spots opposite the cell are nearer the outer mar- gin, and from these they gradually run nearer the mar- gin, till the last one is close to the posterior angle, as shown in Fig. 91. The first of the four anteapical spots.
