THE CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST. 57 



matostola somewhat in ornamentation and habit, though not in color. It 

 differs from either in the spinose tibiae. It is the only form of the Helio- 

 philid genera which has this peculiarity. The single species, C. absidum, 

 was formerly referred by me to Ablepfiaron (= Arsilonche teste Staudinger). 

 It is from California ; one specimen before me is from Webber Lake, July 

 22, collected by M. v. Osten Sacken. The thorax and fore wings are 

 pale lemon yellow, with the veins somewhat paler and accompanied by 

 dark powderings. Hind wings and abdomen white ; the former slightly 

 dusted with fuscous and with a more or less evident mesial line of dots 

 on the veins. 



Heliophila amygdalina, n. s. 



$ . Allied to ligata, but the wings are more almond-shaped. Costa 

 curved. Eyes hairy. Of the usual pale testaceous ochreous color, with 

 a brighter shading on the cell. Costa broadly whitish rosy gray • veins 

 obsoletely pale marked. The t. p. line is expressed by a continuous series 

 of venular black dots, running more inwardly obliquely below vein 4 than 

 in ligata. Hind wings white, very slightly soiled. Abdomen and thorax 

 pale ochreous. Beneath the whitish hind wings show a terminal row of 

 black points ; the ochrey primaries a black mark at the ception of the 

 exterior line on costa.

Caradrina subaquila, n. s. 



£ $ . Closely allied to conviva, but the thorax and fore wings are of 

 a bright brown, somewhat purply. The terminal space pale, somewhat 

 ochrey, and in one specimen broken into spots.  The lines and spots as 

 in conviva; the reniform resolved into two blackish points, more or less 

 prominent and faintly pale ringed. Hind wings and fringes white ; the 

 former more or less soiled exteriorly.

Caradrina clara, n. s. 



% . Fore wings and thorax blackish brown, paler shaded. Veins on 

 primaries obsoletely powdered with white. Median lines sub-obsolete ; 

 the inner almost wanting ; the outer geminate, shaped as in grata, and 

 like as in that species, very near to the white marked narrow reniform.
