tinguishable from the surrounding hue ; and the ochreous spots around 

 the apex are each margined behind with blackish, or more properly, 

 there are a series of minute black spots margined before with 

 ocherous scales ; the thorax, though paler than the wings, is rather 

 brown, tinged with ocherous, than simply ocherous ; the antennae are 

 rather robust, and somewhat serrated toward the apex. In this speci- 

 men, the central brown dot in the spot at the end of the cell, is 

 connected with the surrounding brown, not an ' island' as in my two 

 specimens. Nevertheless, I have no doubt, it is the same species. 

 The al. ex. is f^ths inch, whilst, in my specimens, it is ,'gth inch 

 more. This specimen, is labeled, by Miss Murtfeldt, "Leaf folder of 

 a small weed." A perfectly fresh glossy specimen is one of our 

 prettiest species of the genus. 



G. physalivorella, n. sp. 



A very different thing from G. physaliella, Cham., though labeled, 

 by Miss Murtfeldt, "from physalis." It rather resembles, in orua- 

 mentation, G. mnhrododla, Cham., though the ornamentation of the 

 wings is, perhaps, even more like that of Tkcheria heliopsisella, though 

 sufficiently distinct from it, also. Second joint of the palpi with spread- 

 ing scales, almost hmMike, and not twice as long as the third. The fore- 

 wings are ocherous, mottled with brown spots, connected with each 

 other by longitudinal and oblique brown streaks ; in the costal half 

 of the wing, and running nearly parallel to the costa are three black 

 Hues, in a line with each other, but not connected; the first and 

 shortest is before the middle, the second and longest begins about the 

 middle, and the third is before the apex ; cilia of both wings ocherous- 

 gray, hindwing of a leaden ocherous hue. Abdomen yellow, the anal 

 tuft suffused with pale-reddish; head and thorax, dark shining-brown; 

 antennse brown, faintly annulate with ocherous, with the extreme tip 

 ocherous, and six distinct ocherous annulations before the tip; second 

 joint of palpi, ocherous and brown, mixed, third joint brown, with 

 extreme tip, and an annulous before the middle, ocherous. Al. ex. ^ 

 inch. From Prof. Riley and Miss Murtfeldt, from Missouri. 



G. siinpliciella, n. sp. 



Pale grayish, slightly tinged with ocherous. There is a small 

 blackish discal spot about the middle of the whig, with four or five- 

 very small and indistinct ones before it, and two or three nearly in a 

 line, behind it. Second joint of the palpi but little thickened toward the
