defined, separated by the dark median shade. The claviform spot is 

 open, and stretches across the median field nearly touching the even t. p. 

 line. Lines geminate, marked on costa. A slight, irregular basal streak 

 and one below it on internal margin. Terminal field dark shaded, 

 obtaining twice, opposite cell and at internal angle. Fringes dark cut 

 with pale. Hind wings very dark, with paler fringes, concolorous, an 

 indication of discal mark ; beneath with faint double extra-mesial lines ; 

 the narrow terminal space paler on both wings. The costa of fore wings 

 is more or less pale. Abdomen tufted. This species is more ochrey than 

 vulgaris. Texas, Kansas, Wisconsin. 



Hadena aurea, Grote. 



This species may be known from all the other forms of Pseudanarta 

 by the white discal (reniform) spot and the orange hind wings. A speci- 

 men from Arizona is a little larger than my type and the fore wings show 

 indications of the t. p, and s. t. Hues shaded with whitish and give the 

 outer third of the wing a little the appearance oi flava. The white discal 

 spot of fore wings is repeated beneath and is probably a quick character 

 of the species. The hind wings are bright orange above and below, 

 without discal mark and with a moderate, even, black marginal band. 

 My type from Texas has the fore wings a Uttle rubbed. The Arizona 

 specimen expands 21 mil. Coll. B. Neumoegen. 



Oncocnemis griseicollis, n. s. 



Allied to atricoUaris but smaller, the collar entirely whitish gray, head 

 blackish. Eyes naked ; the short fore tibiae with a terminal claw. Gray, 

 of a whitish tone. Under the glass the surface of primaries is whitish 

 sparsely mixed with black scales. The markings hardly visible to naked 

 eye. Under the glass the black, perpendicular, thread-like t. a. line is 

 seen and attached to it a sub-rounded enclosed concolorous spot, the 

 claviform. Similarly the concolorous orbicular and reniform may be seen 

 ringed with fine black circles, the stigmata subequal, orbicular round, 

 reniform upright, hour-glass shaped. Median space narrow ; t. p. line 

 indicated. A black dash from the reniform outward tapering to external 

 margin. Similar fine interspaceai shades give the terminal space a slightly 

 rayed appearance. Hind wings whitish, sub-pellucid. Beneath pale. 

 Expanse 25 mil. Arizona, coll. B. Neumoegen. 



This makes the twenty-first species of this genus discovered in North 

 America. The species is interesting as affording an ally to atricoUaris.
