NORTH AMERICAN LEPIDOPTERA.

was collected by Snow, and I feel assured there are others of this 
species so misnamed. The other specimen was sent me by Mr. 
Bruce. 
The genus Folia contains quite diverse material, and the species 
will probably be distributed among other genera, some mayhap to 
Hadena. Indeed, Mr. Grote has described the same species as a 
Hadenu (diversilineata), and again as a Folia (illepida). 
€AL,OPHASIA Steph. 
Head not retracted. Thorax with fine, smooth vestiture. Abdo- 
men without dorsal tufts. Antenme of male with short, rather dense 
cilire, at base with a feeble tuft, thorax posteriorly with a truncate 
tuft. Primaries short, widening outwardly, more strongly rounded 
at internal angle, outer margin and fringes entire. The above char- 
acterization is from von Heinemann (Schmett. Deutsch. 391), and 
with it agrees fairly well a species which does not seem to fall in 
naturally with any American genus known to me. In wing form 
the species agrees well with opalina ; in type of maculation it is more 
like platyptera, the latter being wider Avinged than its congener. 
PalopliHSia strigata n. sp. — Head, thorax and primaries ash-gray. Head 
marked with fuscous, collar paler at base. Thorax with an admixture of fus- 
cous scales. Primaries with a dusky shade through the cell and terminally, the 
transverse lines obsolete; the veins are ail black marked, and the wing has 
therefore, a strigate appearance. Claviform long, extending from the base to 
beyond the middle of the wing, with narrow black defining lines, filled with a 
reddish sulfusion. A faint reddish tinge beyond the reniform, which is white 
ringed, narrow, upright, with an inferior spur projecting inwardly toward the 
orbicular. The latter is narrow, clavate, oblique, white ringed. On veins 3 and 
4 the dusky terminal shade is cut by a white shade accompan.ying the veins- a 
row of small, dusky terminal lunules. Fringes cut with fuscous, and rather lout^ 
Secondaries whitish basally, soiled fuscous outwardly, the veins dusky. Beueatl: 
whitish, pow’dery.. Expands 1.20 inches ; 30 mm. 
Flab . — Colorado (Bruce). 
Two female specimens are before me, neither of them entirely 
perfect, but yet in excellent condition. The species has the appear- 
ance of Oncocnemis without its structure. One of the sjiecimens is 
in the United States National Museum.
