A NEW MICROLEPIDOPTERON OF THE GENUS EPICALLIMA 

 DYAR FROM PENNSYLVANIA. 



By AUGUST BUSCK. 



Epicallima lucidella, new species. 



Labial palpi golden yellow. Antennae velvety black with silvery 

 white tips; basal joint smooth without pecten. Face, head and thorax 

 bronzy. The deep black ground-color of the forewings occupies but a 

 small part of the wing as a margin on the base, along dorsum and 

 around the apical edge to the brilliant deep golden-yellow area which 

 occupies the larger costal half of the wing and sends a long process 

 out towards the apex; at basal third is a narrow perpendicular black- 

 edged metallic blue fascia, crossing the golden area and terminating 

 in a pale yellow dorsal spot; on the cell are two pairs of paralel long- 

 itudinal metallic blue streaks, all edged with black; on the middle of 

 costa is a small pale yellow spot and at apical third is a similar pale 

 costal dash. Cilia blackish with strong golden reflexions. Hind wings 

 and abdomen black. Legs black, with the tips of the tarsi and the 

 spurs silvery white. 

 Alar expanse: 12-13 m.m. 



Habitat: Oak Station, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania. 

 (Fred Marloff, collector.) 



Type: No. 14435, U. S. Nat. Mus. 



A brilliant species suggesting some of the European metallic 

 species, but very different in pattern. Among the American 

 species it conies nearest the smaller edithella Busck, from 

 which, however, it is also amply differentiated in pattern.
