104 ENTOMOLOGICAL SOCIETY 



in black, the reniform without any white except two little specks at its 

 lower extremity between veins 3 to 5, but these specks are bright and con 

 trasting. Hind wing blackish outwardly, pale at base. Expanse 47 mm. 



Five specimens, Pecos, New Mexico, August 9 and 14 (T. D. 

 A. Cockerell), Garfield Co., Colorado (D. Bruce). 



Type. No. 7832, U. S. National Museum. 



The species is near pluviosa, distinguished therefrom by the 

 smoother colors and the restriction of the white marking of the 

 reniform. The two specimens from Mr. Cockerell are nearly 

 black; two from Mr. Bruce are more brownish, possibly due to 

 the specimens being older ; the third specimen from Mr. Bruce 

 is reddish brown. The three specimens from Mr. Bruce have 

 been in the National Museum collection ever since Dr. J. B. 

 Smith arranged it, the brown ones under the label pluviosa 

 Walker, the red one under lateritia Hiibner.

 darkened before the subterminal line, lighter near the costa, but the ex 

 treme costal edge dark. Lines fine, linear, obliterate, dark, crenulate, the 

 t.-p. with minute points on the veins. Orbicular represented by a black 

 point; reniform large, illy defined, stained with rusty brown, with a black 

 mark filling its lower third. Median shade line indicated ; a terminal row

 Miana pulchra Druce and M. zonella Druce belong to this 

 genus.
