322 ENTOMOLOGICAL NEWS. [July, '15 



Jamaica, British West Indies, XI, 2, 13, by Mr. Morgan He- 

 bard, and kindly presented to me by Mr. George M. Greene. 



Pyrausta huachucalis n. sp. (Plate XII, fig. 3). 



Alar expanse 18 mm. Primaries purple lake, a white submarginal line, 

 dentate in shape, and a similar line near middle of wing running paral- 

 lel with submarginal line; the costa has a row of small black dots, be- 

 ginning at the line near middle and extending outwardly and along ex- 

 terior margin. 



Secondaries smoky white, without any markings, lighter basally. 



Cilia of all wings smoky white, with a row of dots of brown run- 

 ning through centre, forming a dark line. 



Two specimens, Miller's Canyon, Huachuca Mountains, 

 Arizona, July, 1907, Wenzel & Kaeber. 



The nearest species to this in wing form is P. illibalis Hueb- 

 ner, though otherwise it bears no resemblance to it. It is with 

 some reluctance that I describe this species under the genus 

 Pyrausta, as perhaps when the genus is revised and subdivided, 

 this may fall into another closely allied genus. 



Hymenia kaeberalis n. sp. (Plate XII, fig. 4). 



Alar expanse 19 to 20 mm. Upper surface of wings very dark 

 brown, irrorate. 



Primaries : a white lunular spot at one-third from exterior margin, 

 and a zigzag white spot at one-third from base, both enclosed with 

 black lines. 



Secondaries with irregular median and marginal lines, between 

 which the space is much lighter than the rest of wing, really approach- 

 ing white. 



Cilia brown, with a row of dark spots running through them, form- 

 ing a line, except at inner angle, there is a white spot formed by that 

 part of cilia. 



Under side of wings like upper, but more sharply defined, making 

 the contrast of colors greater. 



Described from ten specimens taken at Miller's Canyon, 

 Huachuca Mountains, Arizona, in July, 1907. 



It gives me pleasure to dedicate this species to Mr. H. A. 

 Kaeber, who in company with Mr. H. A. Wenzel, collected this 

 and many other interesting species in the Summer of 1907. 



Diathrausta daeckealis n. sp. (Plate XII, fig. 5). 

 Alar expanse 13 mm. Upper and under surface of wings black. 

 Primaries : a faint white line from costa to middle of wing, at about
