The genus Enypia was erected by Hulst with venata Grt. 

 as its type and is diagnosed as possessing a hair pencil on the 

 hind tibia of the male. In griseata this character could not 

 be found and an examination of the type species shows that 

 it, too, is destitute of this structure, as are the remaining two 

 species, perangulata and packardata. 



Meris alticola Hulst. 



Two males from Las Vegas, New Mexico, without date. 

 The genus and species were described by Doctor Hulst from 

 a single female (Trans. Am. Ent. Soc., xxm, p. 348) and 

 until now the male had not been discovered. I append a 

 description of the male structure to supplement that of the 

 female in the above mentioned publication. 



Palpi short, porrect; tongue developed; antennae bipectinate, the 

 pectinations clavate and gradually growing shorter to a simple apex; 

 patagia long haired ; abdomen untufted ; posterior femora fringed with 

 long hair, posterior tibiae scarcely swollen, with all spurs, grooved, but 

 destitute of hair pencil. Venation as in the female. 



Therina hyalinaria, n. sp. 



Expanse, male 20 mm.; female 35 mm. Head, palpi and anterior 

 part of thorax pale yellow; posterior part of thorax and abdomen 

 whitish. Both wings translucent; above and below uniformly whitish 

 save for a faint yellowish tinge along costae in male. 



Described from I male and I female. 

 Habitat. Southern Arizona (Poling). 

 This is a typical Therina and at once distinguished from its 

 congeners by the perfectly immaculate wings. 

 Type. No. 11874, U. S. National Museum. 



Gonodontis subcineraria, n. sp. 



Expanse, 28-30 mm. Head whitish or brownish, sometimes the 

 front brown and the space between the antennae whitish, becoming 

 darker toward posterior edge of vertex. Thorax and abdomen brown- 

 ish-cinereous. Ground color of wings soiled-whitish, heavily overlaid 

 with brownish scales which take the form of transverse dashes closely 

 arranged, and, with the ground color, give the wings a mottled brown- 

 ish-cinereous appearance. In the female these dashes are not so 

 pronounced, but there is a liberal scattering of dark-brown atoms, which 

 are fewer in number in the male, over the wings. Primaries with two 

 rather narrow cross-lines of the same general color as the brownish 

 blotches ; these are indefinite in two of the specimens at hand, but 

 quite distinct in one male. The intradiscal line begins one-fourth out 

 on the costa and extends outward toward center of wing to the
