THE CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST. 29 



with front and sides dark brown. Abdomen above dark brown, the 

 segments pale ventrally, except the second, which has an irregular black 

 patch above. Beneath generally paler. Ground colour of primaries pale 

 yellowish brown, covered with dark brown and black scales, more thickly 

 massed along costal region, at apex, subterrainally at anal angle, and 

 broadly along* inner mirgin below cell to base. This leaves a central 

 patch of yellowish brown, clear of dark scales, from a point at base, 

 broadening out over cell, especially clear about the small, round, black 

 discal dot, thence in an irregular patch, narrowing rapidly, in an upward 

 slant to margin a little below apex. The basal,, median and extradiscal 

 are pale geminate cross lines, indicated chiefly at costal and inner margins, 

 the latter a little better defined. The subterminal white line, indicated 

 very faintly, ending in an irregular whitish patch, between veins 2 and 3 

 at anal angle. Marginal line black, cut with white opposite veins. 

 Fringes long, dusky, having a central dark line, with pale line at base. 

 A^eins bhck-scaled, broken at cross lines, especially beneath cell, and on 

 veins i to 4. Secondaries dusky. Inner margin broadly sprinkled with 

 dark scales, cut by the beginnings of pale cross lines, which fade out at 

 centre, the extradiscal pale band being wider and more distmctly outlined. 

 Discal dot very small, dusky. Fringes as on primaries. Beneath dusky, 

 silken, the lines above faintly indicated in dusky dots across wings. 

 Discal dots present on all wings, small, dusky. Thorax beneath and 

 femora darker. 



The type, a Ç from the Hy. Edwards collection, is labeled California, 

 without date, and will rest eventually in the Amer. Muesum of Nat. 

 History, N. Y. City, or so soon as the author can obtain a duplicate. The 

 specimen was inadvertently given to him several years ago as siibapicata. 

 The only other specimen I have seen is a male, submitted to me by Mr. 

 J. A. Grossbeck, from Dr. Barnes' collection, which I have made a 

 co-type. It is labeled Redington, Arizona, also without date, but taken in 

 1 9 10, and differs only in being rather more strongly and clearly marked 

 than the type. Subapicata is taken in December and January, and I 

 doubt not this species appears also about that time.
