THE CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST. 11 



fringe a trifle paler, with slightly darker mesial line. Head and thorax 

 concolorous with fore wing, abdomen with hind. Basal joints of palpi 

 black, tip yellowish-white. 



Beneath all wings blackish-fs-iscous, with fairly distinct common mesial 

 band. Fore wing shaded with yellow along costa towards apex. Hind 

 wing with discal dot. 



Type.— One ^ . Victoria, B. C, from Mr. A. W. Hanham. 



It is possible this may turn out to be the same as Cerma fascia. 

 Smith, though from the description and locality I do not think it likely. 



Cerma sarepia, n. sp. — $ . Expanse, 22 mm. 



Fore wing from base to t. a. line, from t. p. to s. t. line, together with 

 reniform, pale greenish, remainder of wing brown, with somewhat of a 

 bronze cast. Small black point on costa at base ; basal half-line distinct, 

 inclined outwardly, then inwardly. T. a. line i-ather far from base, black, 

 almost transverse, scalloped. T. p. line rather widely removed, black, 

 irregular. S. t. black, irregular, broken. Fringe checkered. Orbicular 

 not apparent. Reniform pale green, outlined with blackish scales, open 

 above. Head, collar and thorax pale green. Some of the scales, 

 especially on the thorax posteriorly, black-tipped. Hind wing fuscous, 

 with faint discal dot. 



Beneath, fore wings pale fuscous, with paler spots indicating position 

 of reniform above. Hind wing paler than fore, rather poorly-marked 

 discal dot and mesial band. 



Type. — One ^ . Wilgus, Ariz. 



Certna canoa, n. sp. ^Expanse, 22 mm. 



Fore wing gray, largely covered with darker gray and blackish-brown 

 scales, not so powdery as most of the other species of this genus. Basal 

 half-line only indicated by pale dot on costa, with a few black scales to 

 inner side. T. a. transverse, fragmentary, represented by a pale patch on 

 costa, one in centre of wing and one on inner margin, each followed by a 

 black shade. The space between basal and t. a. line is dark blackish- 

 brown, cut by longitudinal paler shades into two or three patches. T. p. 

 line white, beginning with short angle on costa to inner side of reniform, 

 thence extending outwardly along costa, then quite squarely around cell, 

 thence with slight inward curve to inner margin, this line is white, quite 

 even and well defined. The space between t. a. and t. p. line is blackish- 

 brown, cut by pale longitudinal shades, leaving a dark patch on costa,
