146 THE CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST. 



There are also a few small white spots near the apex. Ciliae grayish 

 streaked at the apex with brown. Legs yellowish white, the anterior pair 

 brown on their anterior surfaces. Al. ex. ^ inch. Its nearest known 

 American congener is A. undulatella Cham., but it is closely related to 

 such European species as A. spiniella Zell. This collection also contains 

 another species, marked No. 54, but too much injured to be recognized 

 or described. 



Bucculatrix Canadensisella. N. sp. 



The ornamentation of this species differs from that of any other yet 

 found in this country, and though allied to B. cidarella of Europe, it is 

 still quite distinct. 



Head white. Tuft tipped with dark reddish brown, and the face 

 faintly tinged with purplish fuscous. Upper surface of the thorax brown 

 margined all around by white. Base of the fore wings white, followed by 

 an oblique brown fascia, which is nearest the base on the costal margin, 

 and is followed by an oblique parallel white fascia ; all of these are placed 

 before the middle and are followed by a large brown patch which occupies 

 the entire wing to the ciliae, except that it contains a white spot on the 

 middle of the costal margin. The brown patch is margined before on 

 the dorsal margin of the wing by a small tuft of raised brown scales. At 

 the beginning of the dorsal ciliae is a white spot placed a little before, but 

 becomes almost confluent with a longer white costal streak. Behind 

 these streaks to the apex the wing is pale brown, with a darker velvety 

 brown apical spot Ciliae pale yellowish, with a dark brown hinder 

 marginal line before their middle, not extending into the costal ciliae. 

 Hind wings pale fuscous. Al. ex. }i inch. 



Gracilaria pulchella. N. sp. 



The palpi in the single specimen of this species in the collection are 

 broken off. Antennae dusky yellow, faintly annulate with brown. Head 

 yellowish, with faint violet reflections. There is no trace of the costal 

 triangle, nor, indeed, of any markings on the fore wings, which, and the 

 thorax, are reddish yellow, or perhaps, more properly, are very pale or 

 yellowish brick red, with strong violet and purple reflections, especially 

 towards the apex of the fore wings. Hind win^s grayish fuscous ; 

 abdomen grayish fuscous, with the tip pale yellow. Tarsi of the 1 stand 

 2nd pairs of legs white, with the 1st pair of legs brownish red. The 

 under surface of the thorax and the 2nd and 3rd pairs of legs dark gray, 

 with the tibiae and tarsi of the 3rd pair yellowish. Al. ex. V 2 inch.
