are connivent from their origins. The discal vein is curved, and gives rise to 

 an arched medio-discal nervule. In the median vein the upper nervule is forked 

 remotely from the insertion of the medio-discal. 



Head rather rough. Ocelli large. Face slightly tufted. Eyes rather promi- 

 nent, round. Antennae setaceous, pubescent beneath. Palpi slightly exceeding 

 the face, ascending, truncate, and thickly haired beneath and at the tip; the 

 terminal joint slender, obovate, much shorter than the middle, which from its 

 clothing appears to be nearly truncate, broad and flattened. Tongue as long 

 as the palpi. 



E. par ma tana. Palpi grayish brown. Head brownish. Fore wings 

 brown, varied with darker brown; with a white dorsal patch near the middle 

 of inner margin, dotted with a few dark brown dots. The costa from the 

 middle to the tip has four white spots, each of which has a dark brown streak 

 or spot in the centre ; the two nearest the base terminate in faintly violet-hued 

 streaks, the external one running to the hind margin beneath the tip, and the 

 internal, which is double, and fainter than the exterior one, terminates in a 

 slightly silvery-hued ocelloid patch, having a pale ochreous centre and two 

 black streaks. Hind wings dark fuscous. 



Amorbia. 



The fore wings are as broad at the base as across the inner angle ; the costa 

 very abruptly arched at the base, and thence slightly and regularly arched to 

 the apex, and with dispersed tufts of scales on its surface; tip obtuse ; hind margin 

 rounded; inner margin straight. The disk is rather narrow, extends beyond 

 the middle of the wing, is without secondary cell, and with subcostal vein 

 arched, the median straight; the apical nervule is furcate near the tip; the 

 medio-posterior nearly opposite the first marginal nervule. In the hind wings 

 the costal and subcostal veins are distinct ; the subcostal vein is furcate ex- 

 ternal to the origin of the discal vein, with branches separating from their origin. 

 Just interior to the origin of the discal vein arises a subcosto-marginal nervule ; 

 the discal vein is much curved, and the medio-discal nervule arises from the 

 median vein, almost at the point of divergence of the two superior branches. 



Head smooth. Without ocelli. Face nearly naked, with a thin horizontal 

 tuft between the antennas. Antenna? setaceous. Palpi exceed the face by 

 about one half their length, ascending at the base, and rather thick and por- 

 rected, beaklike; densely clothed with rather appressed scales, convex above, 

 and rather concave below ; terminal joint with its base concealed by its covering, 

 but slender when denuded, and about one half less long thaa the middle joint 

 Tongue about as long as the palpi. 



A. humerosana. Palpi grayish fuscous. Head gray. Fore wings gray, 

 with minute tufts of blackish scales scattered over the surface. The inner mar- 

 gin is pale ferruginous from the base nearly to the inner angle, where the hue 

 becomes somewhat diffuse, and is joined by an oblique dark gray central fascia 

 from the middle of the costa. Hind wings rather dark fuscous. 



Crcesia ? Hiibner. 



Fore wings scarcely as broad toward the base as across Hie inner angle ; 

 costa arched toward the base, slightly arcuated from the basal curvature to 

 the tip ; with single elevated scales scattered over the surface of the wing ; hind and 

 inner margins nearly straight, inner angle rounded. The disk is rather nar- 

 row, extends beyond the middle of the wing, without secondary cell, and both 

 the subcostal and median veins slightly curved; the apical vein is furcate, and 

 the medio-posterior arises at a point opposite the middle of the space between 

 the first and second subcosto-marginal branches. In the hind wings the costal 

 and subcostal arise from a common stalk; the branches of the subcostal separate 

 from the point of origin, with an oblique, angulated discal vein from the same
