extradiscal, and divided by a blaok hair line. Submarginal space darker 

 ihan ihe rest of the wing, and traversed by white zig/ag submarginal line. 

 Fiingc lighter, will) median dark line. Hind wing same shade of brown 

 as fore wing, with many lines, at least two intradiscal and four extradiscal, 

 and a white submarginal evident from margin to margin. Fringe same 

 colour as wing, with darker spots opposite ends of veins. 



Ueneath lighter ; the discals larger than on upper side, and nearly all 

 the markings of jipper side reproduced, the extradiscal and submarginal 

 dark lines on all wings being heavy and diffuse. The direction of the 

 intradiscal line on the fore wings above, in its relation to the two median 

 lines, distinguishes this species from all the other species of eastern 

 Rupithecia known to me. It is, however, a very near relative to the 

 European E. sobrinata Hubner, of which at first I thought it might be a 

 variety. Described from four specimens received from Mr. A. K. Winn, 

 of Montreal, and taken at IJiddeford, Maine, 23, VII, '99, and Kamouraski, 

 Quebec, 23 and 26, VIII, '98. 



My type labels are on two specimens retained in my own collection, 

 and labelled Biddeford, 23, VII, '99, and Kamouraski, 26, VIII, '98. 



Euptthecia fumata, n. sp. 



Expanse, 24 nmi. 



This is one of our large species very near to E. fumosa Hulst. It 

 differs from that species in the shortness of the palpi, in the greater fulness 

 of the hind margins of all the wings, in being more heavily scaled beneath, 

 and in having the extradiscal line on the hind wing below liner, and more 

 distant from the discal spot. These (except ihe palpi) are slight 

 character.s, and may not amount to more than varietal differences, but my 

 type specimen is in such perfect condition that I am tempted to name it. 



There is no eastern species near to it except what I have identified 

 as fumosa. The western Eupiihecia perfuica Huht. and its allies, E. 

 tertmnatii and E. Shcanata^ are also near relatives oi fumata. 



Type, one 9 taken at Ottawa, 9, VI, '06, by Mr. C. H. Young, and 

 in niy collection 



Eupithecia indistincta, n. sp. 



Expanse, 28 mm. 



This is the largest of our eastern species. The wings are longer but 

 narrower than in E. Packardata, Taylor (gemiiuita^ Packard), which 

 species indistincta much resembles.
