trasting. Basal half line bent on median vein, continued to internal 

 nervure. T. a. line nearly even, slightly outwardly arcuate, very slightly 

 notched on costal and median veins. Orbicular very indistinct ; it 

 appears large, spherical, outlined by a ringed shade of a lighter brown 

 than the ground color. Reniform large and wide, with a distinct darker 

 inner annulus, and with an enclosed blackish stain on the median vein 

 inferiorly. T. p. line like the first two transverse lines, exserted round 

 the reniform, nearly even. There are three grey ante-apical costal dots, 

 while the apices are distinctly washed with a grey shade, which obtains 

 beyond the subterminal line over costal region on the terminal space^ 

 Terminal line very vaguely indicated. Hind wings whitish, with a vague 

 fuscous terminal shade and the veins stained with blackish, darker in the 

 female, fringes whitish. Beneath pale, with a common line appearmg by 

 blackish nervular dots and streaklets ; a discal point on secondaries, which 

 have whitish fringes, while beneath the fringes of the fore wings are brown 

 (as above) and contrast. Expanse, 32 m. m. St. Catharines, George- 

 Norman, Esq.

Habitus of Taeniocampa 2inA Perigrap/ia ; the thoracic and caputal 

 squamation is woolly. The eyes are, however, naked and lashed, not 

 hairy, as in allied genera. The hind and middle tibiae are spinose, and 

 the form is not flattened, as in Glaea ( Cerastis, Led.) The ^ antennae 

 are simple, not pectinate, as in Pachiiobia. The fore wings are broad, 

 entire and widen outwardly, with full and rounded external margin. In 

 color the species resembles Ceraviica picta ; the lines are obsolete, except 

 the subterminal, which, with the ordinary spots, is grey. The thorax has 

 the collar distinctly lobed, as in Perigrapha, and the sides are well defined • 

 there seems to be no dorsal tuft, while the wings are broader than in that 

 genus. The habit is that of Taeniocampa and Lithopha7ic ; the perfect 

 insect has been taken by Mr. Geo. Norman, in May.

^ . Dark and deep red brown; the fore wings are brighter colored 

 outside of the t. p. line, and at base below the median vein. The median 

 transverse lines are hardly to be made out against the blackish red brown 

 color of the wing ; the t. p. line is seen to be single and regularly inter- 

 spaceally scalloped and accented on the nervules. The stigmata contrast 

 by their grey color ; the orbicular well sized, spherical ; the reniform
