primaries with a rather faint marginal row of oblong spots, reaching 

 neither the costa nor the inner angle, followed by a row of six 

 large black spots almost joined to form a continuous band; the 

 usual postmedian row of spots large, black, much excurved op- 

 posite the cell, and almost touching the submarginal row; a broad 

 black dash in the cell and a series of three small subbasal spots. 

 Secondaries with a marginal row of six black spots and a sub- 

 marginal row of black dashes of which the two costal ones are 

 heavy and round, the remainder being reduced and rather lunular 

 in shape; between these two rows of spots a broad orange band 

 fills the entire space from anal angle to vein 6; a bent postmedian 

 row of prominent round black spots and a subbasal row of four 

 sim.ilar spots with a black discal dash. 



9 . — Pale brown above, with a broad orange band on secon- 

 daries, much as on the underside, and a more or less distinct row 

 of marginal round spots; occasionally the inner margin of this 

 band shows traces of blue scaling, which may also be found at 

 base of primaries; underside as in the cf • 



Expanse 23 mm. 



Types — Three d^'s, S. Arizona (Poling); one d* , Santa Rita 

 Mts., Ariz.; one cf, Rio Verdi Mts., Ariz.; three 9 's, S. Arizona 

 (Poling) in Coll. Barnes. 



The species is closely allied to enoptes Bd\-.. but differs in the 

 whiter ground colour of underside with broader orange band; 

 the spots are also rather heavier and the blue of the upper side 

 mere violet in shade; the cf genitalia, while quite distinct, show a 

 relationship to enoptes rather than to hattoides Behr., which has 

 totally different sexual organs. We expect to make a few notes 

 at a later date on these much confused species, together with 

 figures to illustrate the points of distinction. 



Hemileucid.e. 

 Hemileuca lucina latifascia, subsp. nov. 



Specimens from Manitoba, while agreeing with typical lucina 

 from the New England States in the transparent appearance of the 

 wings, have the pale banding \evy much broader, especially on 

 the primaries, leaving only a narrow black border of equal width
