 p. 232, 1914. 



Remarks. — Male genitalia figured from paratype in the United 

 States National Museum from Jalapa, Mexico. In addition to this 

 specimen I have examined a male from Volcan Santa Maria, a male 

 from Palin, and a male from Cayuga, Guatemala (Schaus and 

 Barnes, collectors). I do not know the female. The male is easily 

 distinguished from other Epinotia that have the black sex scaling 

 by its characteristic genitalia, by the black cilia on inner margin of 

 hind wing, and by the long black hair pencil on the base of the hind 

 wing.

 different, and the males are otherwise distinct. E. lantana has no
