Four males and two females, in fair condition. The markings are more 

 clearly defined and the lines are better separated than in the allied species. 

 Superficially the larger size will at once make it recognizable. 



Epizeuxis intensalis nov. sp. 



Head, thorax and primaries deep, rich, lustrous smoky brown; on the head and 

 thorax uniform, on the primaries overlying a pale, glossy luteous which appears 

 through in places, and gives the wing a mottled appearance. T.a. line upright, 

 with three equal outward teeth or angles only a little darker than the ground, and 

 usually best marked by the preceding pale shade, which is variably complete and 

 always diffuse. T.p. line sharply denticulate, with long outward teeth on all veins, 

 only a little outcurved over cell and incurved below, best marked by the well-defined 

 pale line which follows the obscure darker line. S.t. line very irregular, forming 

 three main outward lobes and three long inward angles, the first outward lobe begin- 

 ning at costa and extending to the inward tooth opposite middle of cell; the second 

 lobe begins at the latter point, and extends to the inward angulations on veins 1 and 

 2; the third outward lobe is only partial, and extends to the inner margin. The 

 terminal space is always paler than the rest of the wing, often mottled, and some- 

 times contrastingly so. There is no obvious median shade. A distinct black termi- 

 nal line, narrowly interrupted on the veins. Fringes smoky, narrowly cut with 

 yellow. Orbicular a small round dot of the yellow ground-color. Reniform moder- 

 ate in size, somewhat lunate, consisting of a dark crescent set in a larger spot of the 

 pale ground-color. Secondaries whitish, with a yellowish or smoky suffusion, 

 darker outwardly. There is a dusky median line followed by a pale shading, a pale 

 sub-marginal line, and a distinct brown terminal line. Beneath, yellow, very 

 sharply marked with a common black median line, a much fainter and variably 

 evident s.t. line, and obscure discal spots. 



Expands 1.10-1.40 in. = 28-37 mm. 



Habitat: Yavapai County, Arizona, July and August (Hutson); South- 

 ern Arizona, June 15-30 (Poling); Southern California (Poling). 



Six males and one female, in fair or good condition. This species 

 resembles coheta Barnes at first sight, but differs from all others in the genus 

 by the distinctly annulate reniform, the contrasting terminal space, and the 

 sharply-marked under side. The secondaries also are paler than in any 

 other of the allied forms, so that we have a fairly well-defined species in an 

 aggregation of decidedly variable forms. 



Epizeuxis partitalis nov. sp. 



Head and thorax glossy brown with a smoky tinge, abdomen somewhat paler. 

 Primaries glossy brown; basal area a broad diffuse median shade, and all beyond 

 the t.p. line smoky blackish. T.a. line nearly upright, with three moderate out- 

 curves in the interspaces. T.p. line blackish, well-defined, denticulate, followed by 

 a less distinct paler line, moderately outcurved and drawn in only a little in the
