THE CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST. 55 



the upper portion filled with several irregular olive spots and dashes, 

 separated from each other by dusky shades ; above reniform on costa a 

 small olive dot ; t. p. line indistinct, broken, represented by a series of 

 olive spots, shaded inwardly more or less distinctly with black sagittate 

 marks, and followed by a row of minute white dots on the veins; in course 

 parallel to outer margin, slightly incurved in submedian fold ; s. t. line 

 usually very indistinct, marked by the difference in shade between the 

 dark subterminal and the ochreous shaded terminal spaces, irregular, 

 incurved opposite cell, dentate on veins 2-4, occasionally preceded by 

 black sagittate marks, most prominent in costal half; terminal area usually 

 but slightly lighter than subterminal portion ; at times rather heavily 

 streaked with ochreous ; a dark terminal line, broken by yellow points 

 opposite the veins ; fringes dark, rayed with ochreous or olive opposite 

 the veins. Secondaries entirely smoky, with broken dark terminal line. 

 Beneath primaries smoky, costa and outer margin ochreous, shaded with 

 pinkish ; secondaries whitish, sprinkled with smoky ; a more or less 

 evident discal spot and postmedian h'ne on both wings. Expanse, ^ 23 

 mm.; Ç 28.5 mm.

The species bears considerable resemblance to vecors Gn., is, how- 

 ever, much smaller, lighter in appearance, and differs in the marking of 

 the reniform, as well as in other minor details ; it shows considerable 

 variation as regards the distinctness of the subterminal line and the 

 shading in terminal space. It is possibly Mexican, but we can find 

 nothing in Hampson's work that agrees with it. 



Oligia (Hadena) tonsa dJo. fasciata, ab. nov. 



Maculation as in tonsa Grt., or subjuncia Sm.; the ground colour of 

 the wings, however, is white, streaked slightly with blackish ; a broad 

 red-brown band stretches across the median area of wing, bordered 

 inwardly by the t. a. line, outwardly in the upper portion by the inner 

 margin of the reniform, in the lower portion by the curved t. p. line ; in 

 the basal area of wing, near inner margin, two short black streaks, and a 

 black dash across the median band as in lonsa ; orbicular and reniform 

 white, former very prominent against the dark surrounding area, latter 

 with a slight yellowish outer shading between it and t. p. line. 

 Secondaries deep smoky. Expanse, 22 mm.
