a small complete annulus. The black basal streak is distinct, 

 furcate on the oblique, geminate, waved t. a. line. The streak 

 above the internal angle is distinct and continuous, and there is a 

 faint darker sliading outside of tlie t. p. line opposite the cell con- 

 taining an obsolete streak. The whitish fringes are distinctly 

 black-dotted. Hind wings as in A. exilis. Beneath the common 

 line is faint and appears more even and straighter on the primaries 

 than in its ally. 



Expanse 30 mm. Habitat. Texas (E. L. Grraef). 



These closely allied species may be distinguished by the cha- 

 racters given above on close attention. J. paup^rcM^a seems to 

 resemble A. intert^ujjta, a species described by Guenee, from a 

 drawing by Abbot ; it seems to differ in the characters of tlie 

 basal line as given by Guenee as well as in the color of the hind 

 wings which are not at all yellowish in either of the two species 

 described by me. 



Eutolype, n. g. 



A genus which I would refer to tlie Bombycoidea of v. Heine- 

 man. 



The e^'cs are naked, and the small ocelli ma^' be perceived on 

 their margin behind the antennae. The 'S antenna? are bipectinate, 

 thickly setose ; the pectinations increase in length on the inside 

 at basal third, and gradually' taper thence to the tips, where they 

 become obsolete. The labial palpi are short, as in Dicopis, and 

 do not exceed the front, and are thickly haired with depending 

 beard. The whole body is shaggil}' haired, and the short unarmed 

 legs are nearl}^ hidden by the lengthy vestiture. The thorax is 

 comparatively heavy and square, and its proportion to the abdo- 

 men is somewhat as in Dicopis. On the disk is a tuft of metallic 

 scales, such as have hitherto been recorded only of Eudryas and 

 Tolype. The wings are long and rather narrow, the primaries 

 with roundedly oblique external margin and defined apices. The 

 general aspect recalls the Notodontians, but veins 4 and 5 are 

 thrown off together on the fore wings, and the insect undoubtedly 

 is Noctuidous. 

 Eutolype Rolandi, n. s. 



%. Cinereous fuscous. The markings on the primaries are 

 obliterate. The ordinarj^ spots can be made out, of a paler gray, 

 the reniform very large, obsoletely black ringed. The t. p. line 

 may be seen as an approximate gray sinuate band in some indi-
