226 THE CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST. 



following new species : - A. septentrionella, A. singulelia, A. lactimaculella, 

 A. simpliciella - from the Pacific Coast, besides two new Indian species, 

 gemmelia and A. grisseela. The pamphlet also contains a description and 

 figure of Licurvaria solenobiclla, and two species of Micropteryx (M.pardella 

 and M. aurosparcelld) also from the Pacific Coast. . Of this latter genus 

 M. pomivorella was, as stated in my " Index," the only known species 

 "from the United States and Canada," though another species — M. 

 luteiceps — had been described by Walker from Nova Scotia The author 

 leaves it doubtful whether Hyponomeuta ordinatellus Walker is the same 

 with H. multipuiictellus Clem. Ancsychia sparcicella in my " Index " is 

 a misprint for sparciciliella. Unfortunately, from circumstances 



beyond my control, there are too many such misprints in the " Index.' 

 1 he species is known to me only by Dr. Clemens' description of it. Lord 

 Walsingham states that it is a Cryptolechia, not a Hyponomeuta. He is no 

 doubt right in the opinion that A. hagenella Cham, should be referred to 

 Psecadia Hub., if there is any sufficient generic distinction between 

 Anesychia and Psecadia, of which I am not convinced. 



Psecadia monticola, P. arctostaphylella, P. subcairulea, P. albistrigella are 

 described and figured as new species from our Pacific Coast, P. cupreoni- 

 vella from Brazil, and P. ermineella and P. hockingella from India. The 

 author seems to have some doubt whether P. arctostaphylella and P. 

 subccerulea are really distinct, but so far as we are able to form an opinion 

 from the figures they seem to be distinct enough. Arctostaphylella bears 

 some resemblance to Anesychia ( Psecadia ) trifurcelia Cham. 



Two new species of Lampreonia are described and figured : L. 

 oregonella, the name of which indicates its locality, and L. tripunctella, pur- 

 chased in a miscellaneous collection from North America. These are 

 especially interesting as the first notice of the discovery of a species of this 

 genus in this country. 



The above are the only species described in the paper, and all are 

 illustrated by beautiful figures. But little is known of the Tineina of the 

 Pacific Coast ; and so far as I have been able to learn, Lord Walsingham 

 is the only one who has collected them, who is also familiar with the group. 

 It is to be hoped that he will follow up this contribution by others like it, 

 especially as to the smaller species, which are the most interesting, and as 

 to which almost nothing is known. There is here also a splendid oppor- 

 tunity for some Entomologist resident on that coast.
