by a broad grisoous shade. Stigmata obsolete; the renifonu indicated by a 

 few pale scales. Median shade line hardly apparent, approximate to the t. p. 

 line, the latter more even, more faintly filled in with griseous, slightly arcu- 

 ate. Subterminal line indistinct; terminal space but very little paler than 

 the rest of the wing ; fringes concolorous. Secondaries blackish fuscous with 

 paler fringes. Beneath the wings are pale, soiled, yellowish-white, irrorate 

 with black scales and with the discal point and exterior fuscous line marked 

 on secondaries. Body parts concolorous with the wings.

Eudropia Warueri, Harmy. 



2 . — A beautiful, umber-shaded moth. Antennae simple, white above, brown 

 beneath, palpi porrect, head brown, thorax grayish-white suifused with a 

 burnt umber tinge. Abdomen concolorous. Primaries broad, posterior border 

 boldly convex, surface white, but profusely covered with umber-colored points. 

 T. a. line convex outwardly, narrow on the costa, widening opposite the cell, 

 continuing very broad to the inferior border, being of a burnt umber color, 

 with a light shade in its concavity. T. p. line white, evenly broad, convex 

 outwardly, strongly exserted at convexity of posterior border, dark umber 

 shaded in its concavity, forming the line of a strung bow; outside of the t. p. 

 line a somewhat light umber shade, but strongly marked at the center and 

 inferior border of the wing, forming two conspicuous spots. A very distinct 

 black discal spot ; a white broad line, running from the extreme convexity of 

 t. p. line to the apex of the wing, having on its outside for half the dis- 

 tance a finer umber line; fringes of an umber color. Beneath the surface 

 of a mottled ocherous, resembling the under surface of E. hypocJiraria , but 

 less brilliantly colored, the discal spot brown, all the lines faintly marked ; 

 spot at convexity of the t. p. line quite obvious ; fringes darker than above, 

 contrasting strongly with the lighter shade of the wing. Secondaries lighter 

 in shade than the primaries; a black discal spot; t. p. line clouded white, 

 with an inner and outer umber-shaded margin, more distinct at anal angle ; 

 fringes same as the upper surface of the primaries. Beneath, in color resem- 

 bling the under surface of the primaries ; arcuated line and discal spot pres- 

 ent ; fringes concolorous with fringes of under surface of the primaries ; 

 fringes on the inferior border of secondaries of a delicate white.

It gives me pleasure to dedicate this species to Miss Warner, who 

 in the pages of "Queechy," has given to the locality of its capture 

 a "Wide, Wide World" reputation.
