outer line dark brown. Outer line oblique, curved toward the costa, with 

 no tendency to double itself, and quite distinct from the border of the winn-, 

 beyond which it is rusty-ochreous, growing slightly paler toward the edge 

 of the wing. A large, pale, irregularly oval, apical spot, one of a series of 

 smaller irregular ones, ending just within the hind angle. Fringe dark. 

 Hind wings with a very faint basal shade (not present in two of the speci- 

 mens) (>uler line straight, or but slightly curved, duplicated in the middle, 

 but inclosing a smaller area, than usual. Shaded a little way beyond the 

 line, and on the apical portion with rusty-ochreous; edge of wing below 

 pah; ochreous. Beneath, deeper ochreous than usual, the outer common line 

 alone prominent, dark brown. Wings ochreous, heavily speckled with black 

 scales. Submarginal row of pale spots distinct, but not present on the hind 

 wings. Border partially shaded, especially on the tore wings and apical 

 region of the hind wings. 



Length of body, 3, 0.60-0.70, 9, 0.55; of fore wing, 3, 0.G3-0.70, ?, 

 0.90; expanse of wings, 1.90 inches. 



This well-marked species may at once be known by the two large, broad, 

 triangular teeth on the hind wings, the unusually bright-ochreous colors, and 

 the row of submarginal, pale, irregular spots near the outer edge of the fore 

 wings.

This agrees perfectly with GrueneVs description, but not with his figures, 

 which are usually poor. My description is partly based on Messrs. Grote 

 and Robinson's type. Walker's E. propriaria (List, xx, 249, I860) seems to 

 be this species.

4 3 and 1 9. — Antenna; not so heavily pectinated as usual. Fore wings 



falcate, rather short, outer edge decidedly serrate, hind wings deeply and 

 regularly so. Fawn-brown, with a violet tinge, especially on the outer half 

 of the hind wings. Inner line on the lore wings rather broad, dark brown, 

 very oblique, and bent at a high angle just below the costa. The extradisca] 

 line is a broad band, somewhat sinuous. The wing beyond is as clear as in
