815. Bruceia pulverina Neum. 



830. Eubaphe ostenta Hy. Edw. 



888. Apantesis nevadensis Grt. and Rob. 



One female, bred from a pupa found under a stone. Hind 

 wings and subdorsal region of abdomen, yellow ; fore wings with 

 basal bands broken, none of them distinctly crossing the sub- 

 median bar. It is probably referable to the form superba Str.

 1467. Peridroma margaritosa Haw. 

 1496. Noctua clandestina Harr. 

 1798. Noctua pyrophiloides Harv. 



One large female specimen of a delicate pinkish ground color 

 rather than the gray clayey color of Pacific Coast specimens. I 

 have a similarly colored male specimen from Bluff, Utah, taken 

 by Mrs. H. M. Peabody, and I would designate this form as var. 

 peabodyce. 



Type. No. 6727, U. S. National Museum. 

 1501. Noctua piscipellis Grt. 

 Noctua arnia, n. sp. 



Allied to piscipellis and atrifrons. Front of head brown black, as dark 

 as piscipellis , but the color extends uniformly over the head and collar, 

 only fading on the disk of the thorax. Abdomen gray brown with red 

 dish anal tuft. Fore wings with the ordinary spots obsolete ; lines single, 

 black, grayish edged, strongly dentate; veins lined in black outwardly; 

 a faint pale subterminal line, nearly obsolete. Color of wing dark red 

 dish brown, hoary gray shaded, much as in piscipellis but darker; the 

 markings, however, are more as in atrifrons. Hind wing white, soiled 

 with gray outwardly. Expanse, 37 mm. 



Ten specimens, July 25. 

 Type. No. 6728, U. S. National Museum.
