Elizabeth, N. J.; from Mr. Kemp. I have another specimen, a 

 male, from Mr. Kearfott, from Montclair, N. J., which seems to be 

 the same species, but the extremity of the abdomen is fuscous in colour. 

 Both specimens were taken in August, the one from Mr. Kearfott at 

 light.

 with a purple tinge, blackish gray behind; abdomen light whitish fuscous, 

 with intermingled black scales ; fore wings with a white base, heavily 

 overlaid with black scales, giving a clear dark gray appearance ; an 

 ochreous tinted spot at middle of basal field ; basal line whitish, well 

 out to discal spots ; middle field more whitish, owing to fewer black 

 scales ; outer line whitish, bent, edged rather broadly with black near 

 costa ; hind wings fuscous.
