MANITOBA MICROLEPIDOPTERA. 



BY W. D. KEARFOTT, MONTCLAIR, N. J. 



(Continued from page 208.) 



Exentera apriliana, Grote. — x'Vvveme, IV, 30, to V, 21 ; Beiilah. 



Thirteen specimens. This is a particularly interesting capture. Grote's 



description* is remarkably brief, and his generic description, occurring on 



the same "page, is misleading on account of an error. He states : '^ Hind 



wings 7-veined, 5 Wanting." I know of no Tortricid genus in which 5 is 



absent ; frequently 3 and 4 are coincident or stalked for their entire 



length, but even this is not the case in any one of these specimens; 3 and 



4 are stalked from a quarter to a half Prof C. H. Fernald kindly 



examined his type specimen, given him by Grote, and advises that in this 



specimen, which is a female, veins 3 and 4 are stalked for half their 



length, vein 5 present, bent strongly towards base, and arising close to 



origin of 3 4- 4. It is exceedingly doubtful that Grote's genus will stand. 



The specimens are dark grayish-fuscous, ahiiost immaculate, but with 



more or less obsolete-darker, narrower fascia from middle of costa to 



angle, and the basal area defined by an oblique line rising out of dorsum 



at inner quarter, but lost above middle of wing. Hind wings pale gray. 



Expanse 15. to 20. mm. Fore-wings narrow and outer margin rounded, 



not indented. 



Proteopteryx coiuinbia, Kearf — Aweme, VII, 14. One specimen, 

 agreeing with the type of the darkest form. 



Epinotia iiicarnana. Haw. — Aweme, VII, 31. (Europe and Cali- 

 fornia.) 



Epinotia fasciolana, Clem. — Aweme, VI, 6 to 10; Beulah. (Maine 

 to Penna.) 



Epinotia liturana, Wlsm. — Cartwright. Type from California, not 

 since recorded. 



Epinotia iinbridana. Fern. — Rounthwaite, July ; Aweme, VI, 9, to 

 VIII, 12. This has been a MS. name for many years. Dr. Fernald 

 promises to have the description in print before this appears. 



Epinotia pseiidotsugana, Kearf. — Rounthwaite, Aug. 



Epinotia lindana, Fern. — Rounthwaite, Aug, (Canada, Mass.) 



Ancylis niedio/asciana, Clem. — Aweme, VI, 6 ; Beulah, VIII, 15 ; 

 Winnipeg. (No. Atlantic States.) 



Ancylis niibeculana, Clem. — Rounthwaite, Aug. (No. Atlantic 

 States.) 



A?icylis laciniana, ZelL — Rounthwaite, June ; Aweme, VI, 16 to 25.
