THE CA.NA.DIA.N ENTOMOLOGIST. 399 



This species was first titken by Mr. R. V. Harvey, in Stanley Park, 

 Vancouver (nth July, 1904), and has since then been taken in the same 

 locality by other persons. 



1 have also seen a long series of specimens taken by Mr. T. Bryant, 

 near the Stickeen River. The species also occurs, I think, at Kaslo, and 

 is recorded in Dr. Dyar's " Lepidoptera of Kootenai " under Eustroma 

 populata. 



The type specimen is a male, labelled "Stickeen R., July 28th, 1905, 

 T. Bryant." 



This species is a near ally of the E. desti?iaia of Moeschler, and might 

 turn out to be a colour variety of that species. 



13. ZenopJileps Victoria^ new species. — Expanse, 30 mm. The species 

 is very nearly allied to Z. lignicolorata, Pack. From that insect it differs 

 in the ground colour, which is a very pale coffee colour (as in the ^^Ochyria 

 Gueiieata'' of Packard), quite different to the usual gray or wood brown of 

 Z. lignicolorata, and in the form of the extra discal line on the fo.'"e wing. 

 This line in Z. ligiiicolo7'ata leaves the costa with an outward curve, and 

 has a large tooth projecting outwards between veins 2 and 5. In Z. 

 Victoria the whole line is almost straight in its general direction, and has 

 only a very slight projection at vein 4, in place of the prominent tooth. 



I have only seen two specimens, both taken by Mr. A. \V. Hanham 

 near Victoria. One of these, which is a 2 , dated 29th August, 1901, he 

 has generously placed in my collection, and I'have labelled it as the type 

 of the species. 



14. Hydriomeiia atiiumna/is, Strom..'* var. Colu^nbiata^wtw variety. — 

 Expanse. 40 mm. I propose this name for a form which has so far been 

 taken only on Vancouver Island, and which is nearer to some of the 

 lighter varieties of the European aiittimiialis than to any of our character- 

 istically western Hydriomenas. 



It differs from autiinmalis in the larger size and the proportionately 

 longer wings, in the clearer, pale greenish ground colour, and the more 

 distinct lines and bands, which in their form and direction are very nearly 

 as in H. auiumnalis. 



It would, perhaps, not be worth while to give this form a distinctive 

 name, but for the fact that it differs very materially from another form 

 common in the Stikeen region, which appears to represent typical 

 aiituvuialis in this Province.
