ME CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST. 2? 



S fit ia rugifrms Grote. 



This species is found to have been unintentionally omitted from the 

 " Check List." 



Tarache patruelis Grote. (743 of "Check List.") 



A small species taken by myself in Alabama, and sent from Bastrop 

 Co., Texas, by Mr. Meske. Referred here provisionally. Scaly. Fore 

 wings triangulate, shaded ochreous and pale. The ordinary lines very 

 pale and narrow. The most prominent ornamentation an oblique stripe 

 (median shade ?) running inwardly from costal angulation of t. p. line to 

 middle of hind margin, and joining an apical streak so that it appears to 

 issue from apex. The stripe is whitish, bordered inwardly with deep 

 ochreous. Outside of it the narrow t. p. line runs divergingly to internal 

 margin. Hind wings pale yellowish white, stained along external margin. 

 The Texan specimen is smaller, more yellowish and paler than my type 

 from Demopolis, which expands 16 mil. 



The second part of my Check List of Noctuidse is delayed by my not 

 having as yet sufficient material in the Deltoids, and I venture to call the 

 attention of my correspondents generally to this fact and to urge the 

 collection of this group the present season. I shall be glad to receive 

 collections of Deltoids from any quarter and will determine and return 

 specimens promptly. 



fly pc nit la, n. g. 



The moth possesses characters which ally it to Rcnia and flypaia. 

 The $ antennas are setose and provided with two longer bristles on each 

 joint. The $ antennas are similar, but the bristles are shorter. The 

 palpi are free, very long, curbed, with elongate second joint, and extend 

 upwardly above the head ; they are flattened, rather shortly scaled and 

 seem to be slightly longer in the male. Eyas naked, tibias unarmed, 

 vestiture of allied genera. The wings are more elongate than in flypaia, 

 much like Renin, with full rounded secondaries not exceeded by the 

 abdomen.
