OF WASHINGTON. 231 



and partly overlaid with white scales so as to appear gray ; an obscure 

 patch of leaden scales follows this spot in the apical dark band. Fringe 

 dark. Hind wings gray. Expanse, 20 mm. 



Three specimens, June, " bred from flower stalk." The name 

 of the plant was not determined as only the dead and dried flower 

 stalks were observed. 



Epinotia (?) cornutana, n. sp. 



Resembles Enarmonia vitrana Wals. Head pale fuscous. Body and 

 wings brownish black, the outer part of fore wings with metallic bluish 

 scales. A thick, geminate, oblique white bar on middle of internal mar 

 gin, joins a similar one on dorsal margin, forming at the junction a beak- 

 like projection of the black dorsal space. Beyond, four pairs of short, 

 geminate, white costal streaks, the basal pair more oblique and remote 

 than the others. The ocelloid patch consists of four dumbbell-shaped 

 black bars on a grayish white ground, edged with scattered metallic 

 scales. A white dash in the margin below veins 3 and 7 cuts the narrow 

 black marginal line; fringe brown, shining. Expanse, 17 mm. 



One female, July 22.

 5320. Acleris foliana Wals. 

 5334. Epagoge tunicana Wals. 

 5365. Archips argyrospila Walk. 



One female in very bad condition seems probably referable 

 here. 

 5405. i. Tortrix semicirculana Fern. 



One specimen agreeing with Prof. Fernald's description. I 

 have also five others taken at Las Vegas Hot Springs, New 

 Mexico (Schwarz and Barber). It greatly resembles quercifoli- 

 ana Fitch, but the more pronounced lines of the fore wings run 

 in a reversed direction. 



Tortrix dorsalana, n. sp. 



Head and fore wings light straw color; an oblique band of fuscous 

 brown from middle of costa to before anal angle, broken across the cell ; 

 a small spot on outer third of costa obscurely continued to anal angle by 

 a somewhat curved streak; a spot on inner third of dorsal margin, ex 

 tending upward in a few small strigse. Markings all pulverulent or 

 strigose, more or less reduced, especially on the costal portions so that in 

 one specimen the only markings left are a large blotch before tornus and 

 a small spot on the inner third of dorsal margin. Hind wings whitish, 

 more or less tinged with gray. Expanse, 18-24 mm. 



Four c?d\ four 9 9, three bred from oak, two from acciden 

 tally found pupas, others taken June 30 and July 23. 



Type. No. 6736, U. S. National Museum.
