1. Sparganothis lugens, sp. n. 
Antennae cinereous. Palpi projecting more than twice the length of the head beyond it; fuscous. Head 
and Thorax fuscous. Forewings fuscous, with a slight vinous tinge; a basal patch, wider on the 
dorsum than on the costa, a central fascia, wider on the costa than on the dorsum, and an apical patch, 
extending to the tornus, are obscurely indicated by lines and mottling of darker fuscous scales ; cilia 
fuscous. Exp. al. 20-22 mm. Hindwings and cilia brownish fuscous. Abdomen fuscous, Legs pale 
cinereous. 
Type 2 (66311); 3g (66313) Mus. Wlsm. (Godm-Salv. Coll.) BM. [PT. (66312) US. Nat. Mus, ] 
Hab. Mexico: vera cruz: Jalapa (M. Trujillo). Four specimens, 
This very obscure, but apparently undescribed species, is represented by four 
specimens, of which the @ Type alone is in condition to justify a description. 
2. Sparganothis morata, sp.n. (Tab. VII. fig. 13.) 
Antennae and Palpi mouse-colour; the latter acute, projecting twice the length of the head beyond it. 
Head and Thorax mouse-colour. Forewings mouse-colour, the costa narrowly tinged with ochreous, on 
which is some greyish fuscous speckling; across the middle of the wing runs a narrow waved line of 
ferruginous scaling, somewhat broken toward the costa, some small spots before it and several broken — 
lines of spots beyond it, on the apical third of the wing, are of the same colour, but by no means 
conspicuous; cilia paler than the wings, with a slight ochreous tinge. Exp. al. li mm. LHindwings 
brownish fuscous; cilia pale greyish. Abdomen greyish fuscous. Legs pale greyish fuscous.

Unique. 
3. Sparganothis amoebaea, sp. n. (Tab. VII. fig. 12.) 
Antennae & biciliate 24; cinereous, blackish about the base. Palpi reaching the length of the head beyond 
it, porrect, divergent; white, the median joint closely clothed above and beneath, the scales on the 
underside projecting a little beyond the base of the short terminal joint, the basal half smoky brown 
externally. Head rather rough; white. Thorax (denuded) apparently white. orewings somewhat 
narrowed at the base, widening outwardly, the costa arched before the middle, apex obtuse, termen 
very oblique, tornus pronounced, rounded ; cream-white, an elongate black spot at the base of the costa 
is followed at one-third by a black transverse band, tending obliquely outward, much attenuated, almost 
broken at the outer third of the fold, and terminating in an elongate, somewhat triangular patch beyond 
the middle of the dorsum; about half-way between this and the base is a cuneiform dorsal patch of 
black sealing ; on the costa, beyond the band, is a small black median spot, followed by a black triangle 
broken by a white spot at its middle on the costa; this is followed by two smaller black costal spots
