and the apex. The reniform within the brown outline is of a deeper 

 shade than the surrounding field, and by close examination seems to 

 show a few metallic scales. The metallic colouring is cut near the base 

 by the t. a. line which connects the costa with a triangular blotch at the 

 inner margin near the base as in Basilodes Howardi. In the proper 

 light the t. p. line appears as a series of faint dots, invisible when the 

 light is reflected by the metallic scales. Fringes full, alternating two 

 shades of light brown, and divided by a fine line which parallels the outer 

 margin, making the fringes seem double. Secondaries clear white 

 (satiny), a hair line of brown at the extreme outer margin. Described 

 from one specimen labeled " Hot Springs, N. Mexico, 7,000 ft. Alt." 

 Type, male. No. 25975, National Museum, Washington. Expands 

 31 mm. 



I must at once declare that this species is not a Deva at all, but is 

 probably an undescribed genus, near Basilodes. I cannot risk a descrip- 

 tion of a genus, however, on account of the condition of the under side 

 of the insect, which is badly smeared with glue. The structure of the 

 front, however, with its long palpi, removes it from Basilodes, although I 

 found it in the Museum collection labeled Basilodes Howardi, which it 

 so closely resembles. It may rest tentatively with Deva until found again. 



Kallitrichia, gen. nov. (kciAAo?, Tplxe^;, having beautiful hair). — An- 

 tennas simple, slightly serrate, laterally compressed. Clypeus slightly 

 roughened, no tubercle, rounded. Palpi oblique, short, very slightly exceed- 

 ing the front; first and second joints subequal, third joint half the length of 

 the second; smoothly haired. Eyes naked. Tongue moderate. Thorax 

 smooth. Vestiture short, hairs with a (qv{ scales intermingled. Legs: 

 tibiiB without spines, anterior tibiae with claw at tip. Abdomen smooth. 

 Primaries, costa straight, wing triangular. Secondaries full and rounded. 



Kallitrichia albavena, spec. nov. — Antenn?e brown (white at base 

 and perhaps throughout in fresh specimens). Head, thorax and body 

 white. Primaries metallic green (pale pea green). Costa shows as a 

 rigidly straight heavy white line, uniting at the apex with the white fringes, 

 which in turn join a fine white line which borders the inner margin. 

 Median vein white along the outer half (and perhaps throughout in some 

 specimens, there being a faint indication of such a tendency in the speci- 

 men before me). Secondaries pure white (satiny). Described from one 

 female which expands 30 mm. Habitat, Arizona. Type in collection of 

 the author. (Plate, fig. 5.)
