THE CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST. 391 



discal spot. Extra-discal line double, the inner one being most distinctly 

 marked, especially on the veins. It runs inwardly from costa to vein 8, 

 then outwardly to vein 6, then in an almost straight line to inner margin. 

 This line is followed by a pale band, then a darker submarginal space 

 rather wider than usual. Submarginal line indistinct, finely scalloped, 

 with black marks on inner sides of scallops. Marginal line black, narrow. 

 Fringe rather long, basal half darker, with dusky spots at ends of veins. 



Hind wings with margin slightly flattened at vein 5, paler than fore 

 wings, but sprinkled with numerous dusky scales ; five straight diffuse dark 

 lines cross the wing from inner margin to cell ; a sixth wavy extra-discal 

 line completely crosses the wing, and this is followed by the submarginal 

 space and white submarginal line as on the fore wings ; discal spot very 

 faint. 



Beneath bright gray, costa of fore wings marked with about eight dark 

 spots, indicating commencements of lines as on the fore wings, but the 

 lines are diffuse and indistinct, and become obsolete before reaching inner 

 margin ; discal spots distinct, rather large. 



Hind wings with six dark lines, two intra- and four extra-discal, discal 

 points very small, but distinct. 



Type, I (^ , Kaslo, 24, iv, 1906, received from Mr. J. W. Cockle. 



The species is not uncommon at Kaslo from the middle of April to 

 the end of May. Dr. Dyar recorded it in his " Lepidoptera of Kootenai" 

 as Eupithecia multtstrigata, Hulst, a species to which it bears a superficial 

 resemblance. 



4. Eupithecia Hanhauii^ new species. Expanse, 28 mm. Palpi 

 short and stout, dusky ; pectus gray. 



Front gray, with a black spot in front of each antenna, and some 

 blackish scales on clypeus. Thorax light gray, with a conspicuous black 

 transverse bar in advance of the middle, posterior thoracic tuft blackish. 



Abdomen dark gray, with the first, third and terminal segments and 

 the median line on 4th and following segments lighter; dorsal tufts black. 



Fore wings slightly lengthened, bright gray ; cross lines distinct, 

 black. Basal line narrow ; intra-discal line double ; median line also 

 double, angled so as to pass outside the discal dot, which is distinct, large 

 and round. Extra-discal line marked by a series of short dashes on the 

 veins ; this is followed by a pale band, brighter than the ground colour of 

 the wing, divided into two by a narrow blackish line, and followed by 

 another line indicated by a row of black dots on the veins ; submarginal
