grey. Legs whitish, the hind tibiae with three black bands externally, the tarsi with fuscous shade- 
_ bands, also chiefly on their outer sides. 
Type 3 (5841 Wlsm. Det. 1908) US. Nat. Mus. 
Hab. Mexico: sonora: San José de Guaymas, 10. 1V. (Dr. LZ. O. Howard). Unique. 
A fine species of the group of roseosuffusella Clms., noticeable through the pure 
milk-white ground-colour, tinged in places with rosy pink and bright ochreous, and 
the sharply defined, entirely dark, basal patch, which distinguishes it from sqguamigera 
Wlsm., to which it is perhaps most nearly allied. 
3. Aristotelia squamigera, sp. n. 
Antennae fuscous, with whitish annulations, more distinct on the anterior surface. 
recurved, terminal joint scarcely longer than the median, acuminate; rosy whitish, sprinkled with 
brownish fuscous, an ill-defined band of the darker colour at the base and another before the apex of the 
median joint; also two ill-defined bands before and beyond the middle of the terminal joint. Head and 
Thorax whitish grey, sprinkled with brownish fuscous; the latter with a few fawn-ochreous scales at the 
sides and behind. Forewings rosy white, profusely sprinkled with brownish fuscous ; an olivaceous brown 
patch at the base, much wider on the dorsum than on the costa, its outer edge oblique and somewhat 
clearly defined, its surface sprinkled, especially towards the base, with whitish scales; at about one- 
third a strong olivaceous brown costal patch, dilated obliquely outward and downward to the fold, is 
terminated at its outer extremity by a blackish spot; beyond the middle a triangular olive-brown costal 
patch is terminated by a line of blackish scales truncating its apex on the cell, where it is joined by a 
fawn-ochreous patch extending to the dorsum, but sprinkled about the end of the fold with olive-brown 
scaling ; a short blackish dash cuts the pale fascia beyond the end of the cell, the terminal area being 
sprinkled with olive-brown leading up to some blackish marginal spots at the base of the greyish ochreous 
cilia through which run two curved shade-lines enclosing the white apex; there is a small brownish 
ochreous streak below the fold adjoining the lower edge of the second dark patch; underside somewhat 
ochreous, profusely sprinkled along the middle with greyish fuscous scaling, not especially noticeable at 
the base. Exp, al. 10-12 mm. Hindwings rather shining brassy grey, the dorsal half profusely dusted 
with elongate greyish fuscous scales ; cilia ochreous, tinged with grey, very long on the costa in the 33 
underside less ochreous than the forewings, and more profusely scaled with greyish fuscous beyond the 
base throughout. Abdomen greyish ochreous, much sprinkled with brownish fuscous ; with whitish lines 
along the margins of the segments beneath. Legs whitish, with strong fuscous sealing in transverse bands 
across the tibiae, and on the outer sides of the tarsi. . 
Type $ (65763) Mus. Wlsm. (Godm-Salv. Coll.). [PI'T. (65765, 65770) US. Nat. Mus.] 
Hab, Mexico: @uERRERO: Amula, 6000 ft., VIII-IX. (i. HH. Smith). Seven 
specimens. 
Palpi moderately smooth, 
Closely allied to roseosuffusella Clms., and agreeing fairly in the position of the 
white costal marks, which in both species extend with more or less suffusion across the 
wings, but sguamigera lacks the pale fawn colouring on the dorsum, and the strone 
rosy tint which usually accompanies this; moreover, the sprinkling of dark scales, on 
the otherwise pale underside of both wings, is not found in Clemens’ Species, and the 
very long costal cilia, commencing at the base of the hindwings, is very characteristic. 
4, Aristotelia hieroglyphica, sp. n. 
Antennae minutely serrate towards the apex; brown, with white annulations, the basal joint with a white 
ring round its apex. Palpi dull brownish white, the median joint with two fawn-brown bars externally ;
