76 THE CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST. 



Strongly ribbed, and is clay-yellow in colour, mottled with fulvous, and is 

 darker towards the tips. The membrane is roseate brown, and has 

 a yellow patch on the costa and another at the base. The legs are 

 reddish brown above and olivaceous beneath, paler at the joints; the thighs 

 are but slightly dilated. The abdomen is ovate, flattened, and extends 

 beyond the elytra. It is of a roseate brown. On either side of it are six 

 sutures marked with yellow. The anal segment ends in a pair of incurved 

 lobes. The whole of the under side is lighter in colour than the upper.

A NEW ANAPHORID, AND A NOTE ON AN OLD ONE.

Eulepiste Kearfottl, n. sp. 



Gray, with a reddish ochreous tint, brighter in an obscure streak 

 beyond cell and on submedian fold. A series of black strigse along the 

 costa and on fringe : a small dash beyond cell, and an oblique bar 

 in submedian fold beyond middle. Hind wing blackish, fringe long, pale, 

 interlined with blackish. Below, blackish, with a pale line at the base of 

 the fringe. Expanse, 22 mm. 



Two males from Mr. W. D. Kearfott's collection, "Yuma Co., Ariz. 

 Desert." 



Larger than the other species of Eulepiste, and differing in the 

 genitalia. Uncus a single long spine, curving downward, opposed to a 

 broad, concave basal plate. Side pieces strap-shaped or slightly concave, 

 curved downward, and with a distinct spine on the lower angle. 



U. S. National Museum, type No. 6734. 



Pseuiianaphora mora, Grote. 



In 1895 Lord Walsingham examined Grote's type in the British 

 Museum, and thought it might be the female of P. arcanella, Clem., 

 overlooking the description of the true female of this species by 

 BeutenmuUer (Ent. Amer. IV., 29, 1S88). I have now before me ten 

 females and eight males of mora from localities in New York, 

 Pennsylvania and tiie District of Columbia, a majority of them taken by 

 Mr. F. A. Merrick, at New Brighton, Pa. (see Proc. Ent. Soc, Wash., V. 

 40, 1902). There is a marked sexual dimorphism, the male being nearly 

 uniformly blackish, and the female of a light ochreous ground colour. 

 The species is very distinct from arcanella.
