258 Tenema of the United States. 



wings above the fold yellowish, suffused and dusted with fuscus so as 

 to obscure the ground color ; there is a large brown spot about the 

 middle of the wing, and one at the end of the disc, and behind it the 

 apical part of the wing, is marked with more or less obliquely trans- 

 verse rows of small dark brown spots ; beneath the fold the wing is 

 but little suffused with fuscus. Al ex., -i inch. 



T. unomaculella, n. sp. 



Thorax and forewings dark brown with a yellowish spot at the end 

 of the cell ; antennse and outer surface of the labial palpi brown, in- 

 ner surface and apex yellowish ; head and maxillary palpi yellowish, 

 under surface and legs yellowish marked with fuscus. AL ex., f inch. 



Besides the species already mentioned found in these collections, 

 which have been heretofore described from more Northern States, are 

 some damaged specimens of a Tischeria (T. badiiella, Cham)? and 

 Tinea Macidabella, Cham. In the latter species "the oblique irregu- 

 lar streak before the middle " does not quite reach the fold, and the 

 spot towards which it points is on the fold ; the " longitudinal streaks'' 

 in the apical part of the wing sometimes become more or less rounded 

 or irregular spots. In specimens slightly denuded the costal streaks 

 become disconnected spots. 



The foregoing descriptions of " Teneina from Texas" are the con- 

 clusion of a series, the remainder of which have been heretofore 

 published in the Canadian Entomologist, Since they were prepared 

 I learn from Dr. Parkards' "Record of American Entomology" that 

 Prof. Zeller has described (Abhaud, K. K. Zoo. Bot. Ges. Wein,-187o), 

 many species of North American Teneina, mostly collected in Texas, 

 by Messers Belfrage and Ball, and much the greater number of which 

 belonging to the GehcJiidce. No doubt some of the species, especially 

 of the Gelechidoi described by me in the "Tineinafrom Texas," will 

 prove to have been previously described by Prof Zeller, in the paper 

 above referred to; while on the other hand, some of the species then 

 described will prove to be identical with species previously described 

 by me from Kentucky, and other more Northern States, in the Cana- 

 dian Entomologist. 



To Dr. Hagen I am indebted for another paper by Prof. Zeller 

 (Beitrage zur Kenntners der Nordaraerikanischen Nachtfaller &c., 

 1872), in which I find Anesychia MtdtipnncteUa, Cham., previously de-. 

 scribed by Prof. Zeller, as Psecadia semilugens, with a figure of the 

 wings. I have no access to Hiibners diagnosis of Psecadia. Stephens 

 (Haust V. 4, p. 241), divides Anesychia into two sections, viz: "A
