margined and with a black dot ; these two form a combination like the 

 figure of eight. Cell black powdered between the spots. Reniform 

 large, with green centre, edged with white and with a black annulus, 

 irregular, medially strangulated. Above it the t. p. line seems to join its 

 outer margin, but in reality is obsoletely produced beyond it, appearing 

 below it dentate to internal margin. Terminal space light green ; s. t. 

 line obsolete opposite the cell, below black, dentate. Fringes checkered 

 with black. Hind wings white, with lunule distinct beneath and double 

 exterior shade lines and distinct black edging. Thorax scaly ; green 

 with black spots on tegular.

Agrotis cequalis n. s. 



£ . Allied to Wilsoni and especially resembling some of the varieties 

 of that species, but distinguishable by the subterminal line not being twice 

 more prominently indented, but pale, dentate throughout its length, and 

 by the concolorous terminal space and larger stigmata. Hoary olivaceous 

 fuscous with a tinge of brown ; claviform indicated ; orbicular large, 

 irregularly elongate ; reniform wide ; the cell shaded with brown ; t. p. 

 line geminate, regularly lunulate. Fringes brown, discolorous. Hind 

 wings fuscous, deepening in tint outwardly, with pale, faintly interlined 

 fringes and long narrow discal streak ; beneath whitish, irrorate on costal 

 region, with faint terminal shade and discal mark ; primaries fuscous. 

 Thorax and head concolorous with fore wings.
