TINEINA FROM CANADA. 



BY V. T. CHAMBERS^ COVINGTON, KENTUCKY, 



Gelechia basqueella. 



CEcopJwra basqueella, ante p. 92. 



By some unaccountable error, this species is described loc. cit. as an 

 (Ecophora, while a true CEcopJwra, which I intended to publish as CE. 

 ansiralisella, does not appear at all.. I have received G. basqueella from 

 Prof. Riley, taken in Missouri, as well as from Texas. 



A small collection of Tineina from Canada, received by me from Mr. 

 F. H. Belanger, of the Universite Laval, Quebec, contains the following 

 species, all of which, with, perhaps, two exceptions, are now in the 

 collection of the University. 



Tischeria bodicella Cham. 



Coleophora coruscipennella Clem. (It is proper to state here that the 

 species described by me as C. auropuipuriella is the same previously 

 described by Dr. Clemens under the above name. I have taken it at 

 Covington, Kentucky, and at the Bee Spring camp of the Kentucky 

 Geological Survey, near Mammoth Cave.) 



Coleophora cretaticostella Clem. ? I have also taken this species at 

 Covington, but I identify it doubtfully as Dr. Clemens' species, because 

 Dr. Clemens says "palpi white," while in these specimens they are 

 yellowish ; and Dr. Clemens also says " inner margin of the forewing 

 whitish/' which is not correct as to these specimens. In other respects 

 Dr. Clemens' description applies accurately enough. 



Tinea tapetzella Auct. ? 



This species is described as having the labial palpi white, with the 

 outer surface of the second joint dark brown. The specimen before me 

 differs by having them ochreous, with the outer surface of both joints 

 brown. It differs also from all descriptions of T. tapetzella that I have 

 seen in having the tips of the thorax and patagia reddish ochreous, though 

 in all other respects (even to the Ex. alar 9 lines) it v\ T. tapetzella. 

 I therefore place it doubtfully as that species. T. tapetzella is a well
