116 Tineina of (he Central United States. 



and which is separated from the brown of the costal half wing by the 

 lemon yellow of the disc, which extends backward to the middle of the 

 dorsal cilia. Secondaries fuscous. Al. ex., one half inch. 



CoLEOPHOEA — C. Shaleriella (n. sp.) 



White; extreme costa near t lie base brown. The fore wings are 

 marked with several longitudinal ocherous lines, which appear in some 

 lights to be faintly tinged with golden. One of these lines begins on 

 the base just within the costa, and reaches the costal margin just before 

 the cilia; another begins at the base beneath the fold, and reaches the 

 dorsal margin at the fold ; another extends along the dorsal margin ; 

 there is an indistinct line above the fold, but close to it, which begins 

 about the basal one fifth and extends parallel to the fold to the dorsal mar- 

 gin ; two others begin at nearly the same point with that last men- 

 tioned, one of which goes to the costal cilia, and the other along the 

 middle of the wing, sending off' one (or two?) branches to the costal cilia. 

 The cilia are yellowish white. The antennae are simple, and are not 

 annulate with brown. AL ea;., 7-1 6ths inch. 



This species evidently approaches C. cratlpendla, Clem., which I 

 have not seen ; but ihe markings on the wings differ from Dr. Clemens' 

 description, and cra^(^je/ie//a has the antennae annulate with brown. It is 

 sufficiently distinguished from C. gigantella, Cham., by the size as well 

 lis by the ornamentation. It was taken at the light at Camp Bee 

 Spring, of the Kentucky Geological Survey (Edmonson county), and 

 I have named^it in honor of Prof. Shaler, State Geologist of Kentucky. 



Ornix — 0. quercifoliella (n. sp.) 



Iron gray, mottled with dark brown ; labial palpi gray, with two 

 brown annulations between the middle and tip of the third joint. Legs 

 and under surface pale yellowish gray, streaked and spotted with dark 

 'brown; antennae darker brownish gray, faintly annulate with pale gray; 

 thorax brown, with the tip pale gray; fore wings iron gray, ob.«curely 

 •streaked and spotted with dark broyvn and white, having a brown spot 

 about the middle of the costal margin, behind which is a curved brown 

 streak, which passes obliquely backward, nearly halfway to the dorsal 

 margin, and thence curves backward toward the tip, becoming almost 

 ■ confluent with another straight, oblique costal streak, behind which 

 again is another very narrow, straight, oblique, costal, dark brown streak ; 

 behind the brown sjwt above mentioned are two or three very indi.s-
