range of this plant. There is one other specimen in my collection 

 from Tolland, Colorado. 



Coleophora brunneipenms n. sp. 



Palpi brownish ochreous, shaded with fuscous beneath and on the 

 outer side, second segment rather long, slightly tufted, third seg- 

 ment a little over one-half the second. Antennae brown, banded 

 with whitish, basal segment thickened with scales. Head, thorax 

 and fore wings of a uniform light brown or brownish ochreous color, 

 rarely duller with a grayish suffusion, but always entirely without 

 markings or dusting. Cilia concolorous, toward tornus brownish 

 fuscous. Hind wings and ciha fuscous. Legs brown. Expanse, 

 12-17 mm. 



Type (cf), Glacier Park Station, July 14, eighteen paratypes 

 (cf and 9 ), Glacier Park Station, July 14 and 28. 



This species was much commoner on July 14 than at the later 

 date, when only four specimens were secured. A number of the 

 specimens were taken on flowers of Erigeron speciosus; some speci- 

 mens were taken at the same time and place as the preceding species, 

 amongst Polygonum. It is possible that one of these plants is the 

 food plant of the larva. 



Coleophora crinita n. sp. 



Second segment of labial palpi very long, porrected, clothed with 

 long scales, roughened above, with a long projecting truncate tuft 

 l^eneath at apex, exceeding the short third segment and sometimes 

 concealing it, whitish, fuscous beneath and on outer side. Head 

 and basal segment of antennae whitish ochreous, the latter slightly 

 thickened with scales, antennal stalk white, banded above with 

 dark brown. Fore wings pale ochreous or brownish ochreous, with 

 the costa from base to apex white, the dorsal margin more narrowly 

 white from base to apex of wing, a rather broad white streak from 

 base above and parallel to the fold, a narrow parallel streak close 

 to it just below the fold, four oblique white streaks running out 

 into the costal cilia along the veins, two less distinct streaks running 

 into the ciha below apex. Hind wings and cilia grayish ochreous. 

 Legs whitish, with a fuscous line along the outer side. Expanse, 

 12-18 mm. 



Type (c?"), July 22, McDermott Lake, eighteen paratypes (d^ and 

 9), Going-to-the-Sun, July 20-21, McDermott Lake, July 22 and 

 24, Glacier Park Station, July 29, all in dry meadows. 



The long palpi, with the unusually long projecting tuft of the 

 second segment, are the chief characters for recognition of this 

 species. The markings of the fore wing are exactly those of C. 

 acutipennella Wlsni.; in fact, the figure and description of the wing 

 of that species would serve equally well for the present species.
