on central space ; costa narrowly blackish, a black line along outer margin, a fine 

 sinuous outer line, black, narrowly edged outwardly with white, in general direc- 

 tion nearly parallel with outer margin ; a slight cloud representing the orbicular 

 and reniform spots ; fringe black at base, fuscou i outwardly ; hind wings fuscous, 

 with black marginal line, and extra median line running in a curve from centre 

 of anterior margin to outer margin just before anal angle; beneath much as 

 above, but with lines more diffuse and indistinct. 



One % , California. A smaller and more slender insect than the 

 other species of the genus, with wings more extended and pointed.

 basal angulated at the middle, the outer spreading at costa, fine on upper middle 

 portion, broader, and with two indentations near inner margin; a subquadrate 

 white spot, concave outwardly and inwardly, between orbicular and reniform ; 

 subterminal space white, narrowest towards and not reaching apex ; fringe fus-

Aglossa gripalis sp. nov. — Expands 26 mm. Head and thorax fuscous. 

 Abdomen lighter, fore wings reddish fuscous, somewhat darker between the cross 

 lines ; the wdngs are crossed by two broad reddish ochre lines, the basal curved 

 outwardly, striking the costa at nearly double the distance from the base that it 

 reaches inner margin from base, the outer line making almost a right angle post- 

 medially, and nearer the basal line at costa than at inner margin ; hind wings 

 very light reddish ochre ; all fringes reddish fuscous ; beneath light reddish fus- 

 cous, lines scarcely reflected ; fringes darker than wings. 



Two S % , Colorado. Nearest to A. cuprealis Hiibn., t)f Europe, 

 of which Zeller says he. has received specimens from Texas also. 



Aglossa eleotalis sp. nov. — Expands 25 mm. Head, thorax and fore wings 

 dark fuscous ; two broad, light ochre lines on fore wings, one extra basal, the 

 other extra discal, both somewhat curved outwardly, and both somewhat con- 

 fused along edges ; fringe fuscous ; the dark portion of the fore wings is some- 

 what striated longitudinally with light ochreous; hind wings white, with a 

 fuscous shade, with faint fuscous median line, and faint fuscous along outer mar- 

 gin ; beneath fore wings light fuscous, lines hardly visible ; hind wings as above ; 

 all wings with a marginal broken line of black. 



Two % % , Arizona. Much resembling A. domalis Guen., in some 

 respects, and perhaps nearest to it.
