Tceiiiocatiipa i?idra, n. sj).— Ground ccjlour luteous, iii the female 

 tending to smok3'-bro\vn. Head and thorax without markings. Primaries 

 with basil and median lines geminate ; in the male more or less obviously 

 defined by smoky or blackish scales, in the females better marked by the 

 pale filling, which in the male is concolorous ; the darker the wing, the 

 better the pale stands out. Basal line a little outcurved, extending to 

 submedian vein. T. a. line outwardly oblique, a little curved and a little 

 outcurved in the inters})acei. T. p. line abruptly bent on the subcosta, 

 then a little sinuate, but on the whole nearly parallel to outer margin ; the 

 outer portion of line is punctiform, and occasionally, when the dark 

 shading extends inward, the entire line appears crenulate. An obscure, 

 diffuse median shade over reniform, and below it close to the outer line. 

 S. t. line of the pale ground, relieved by dark preceding shades or 

 powderings, a little irregular, reaching the margin at or just within the 

 inner angle. A series of small blackish terminal lunules and a yellow 

 line at base of fringes. Orbicular somewhat irregular, moderate in size, 

 concolorous, scarcely relieved by }ellowish sciles. Reniform of good 

 size, broad, kidney-shaped, or a little constricted, ringed with yellowish 

 and dusky filled ; secondaries smoky, paler at base, and altogether paler 

 in the male. Beneath powdery, primaries smoky on disc, with a crenu- 

 lated outer line ; secondaries paler, with an incomplete outer line and a 

 discal spot.

Eighteen males and twenty-four females, of which all save nine were 

 sent in by Mr. Hutson, and the remainder came through Dr. Barnes. The 

 species is allied to oviduca and Utahensis, differing from the eastern form 

 by its larger size and less stumpy primaries, in addition to differences of 

 maculation, and from the western in the distinct s. t. line, completely filled 

 reniform and altogether more powdery appearance. 



Perigonica piinctilviea, n. sp. — Ground colour a creamy-gray, tending 

 to luteous, more or less powdered with black or brown atoms. Head and 

 thorax immaculate. Primaries ranging from almost uniform powdery to a 

 fairly well-marked form, in which all the ordinary maculation is traceable. 

 Basal line single, upright, punctiform, marked on the veins only. T, a.
