the base and a narrow black Longitudinal line in front. Antenna; 

 in male strongly ciliated on the underside (4). Face ochreous white. 

 Head and thorax salmon-colored. Forewings salmon-ochraceous, 

 unicolored. Cilia ochreous. Hindwings light ochreous fuscous ; cilia 

 ochreous. Abdomen ochreous. Legs light ochreous; tarsal joints 

 slightly dark-mottled. 



Alar expanse. — 22 to 23 mm. 



Habitat. — Huachuea Mountains, Arizona. 



Type.— Cat. No. 11941, U.S.N.M. Cotype in Mr. Kearfott's collec- 

 tion. 



Closely allied to the foregoing species and equally striking in color. 

 The ciliation of the antenna 1 in the male is hardly as long as in 

 canariella. 



CRYPTOLECHIA CILIELLA, new species. 



Labial palpi light ochreous with base of second joint black. An- 

 tennae blackish, in male with long (3) cilia on the underside. Face, 

 head, and thorax light dirty ochreous. Forewings light ochreous, 

 finely dusted with fuscous, especially toward apex; first and second 

 discal spot blackish brown; at apical third is an undulating, out- 

 wardly curved row of small blackish dots. Cilia dirty ochreous. 

 Hindwings dark fuscous. Abdomen ochreous fuscous. Legs light 

 ochreous: tarsal joints sprinkled with fuscous. 



Alar expanse. — 19 mm. 



Habitat. — Baboquivari Mountains, Pima County, Arizona, July 

 ((). C. Poling, collector). 



Type.— Cat. Xo. 11912, U.S.N.M. Cotype in the collection of Mr. 

 W. D. Kearfott, from whom the specimens were received. 



A plain species, very similar to the type of the genus, but smaller 

 and with much longer ciliation of the male antenna 1 . In this it ap- 

 proaches concolorella Beutenmiiller, as well as in color; but this 

 species is a more loosely scaled insect with more rounded wings. 



7. Genus PSILOCORSIS Clemens. 



Psilocorsis Clemens, Proc. Acad. Nat. Sci. Phila., 1860, p. 213. 



Labial palpi very long and slender, smooth; second joint hardly 

 thickened with appressed scales; terminal joint nearly as long as 

 second joint. Antennae simple in both sexes, without pecten on 

 basal joint. Tongue developed, scaled, spiraled. Forewings with 

 rather squarely cut termen; 12 veins; 7 and 8 stalked: 7 to termen; 2 

 approximate to 3. Hindwings nearly as broad as the forewings; 8 

 veins; 6 and 7 parallel; 3 and 4 connate: 5 nearest 4. cubital. 



Type. — Pxilocorsis qacrcicclla Clemens. 



The genus is at present recognized only from America.
