 line dark grey. 



21 specimens; 8 Kona, Hawaii, from 1500 to 4000 feet; 5 Olaa, Hawaii; 5 

 Molokai, from 3000 to 3500 feet ; 2 Waianae Mts., Oahu, at 2000 feet ; i Waimea Mts.,

(2) Homoeosotna mnphibola, sp. no v. 



$^. 16 — 22 mm. Head, palpi, and thorax fuscous, irrorated with white. Fore- 

 wings very narrow, posteriorly somewhat dilated ; veins 4 and 5 stalked ; fuscous or 

 dark fuscous, irrorated with white ; first line almost straight, whitish, edged posteriorly 

 by a dark fuscous fascia ; a well-defined dark fuscous discal spot ; second line almost 

 straight, whitish, dark-edged, always distinct ; cilia fuscous, irrorated with whitish. 

 Hindwings pale grey; veins and terminal line dark grey. (Plate V. fig. 12.) 



33 specimens; 25 Kaholuamano, Kauai, at 4000 feet; 8 Waimea Mts., Kauai, at 

 4000 feet ; from April to June. Exceedingly similar to the preceding, but constantly 

 distinguished by the neuration, and also by the well-marked second line of forewings. 

 It also closely approaches the Australian H. vagella, but may be separated by the 

 nearly straight first line, which in that species is angulated.
