NORTH AMPHilCAN LEPIDOPTERA. 
125 
The front is globose, bulging; fore tibije with a long inner and 
two shorter outer s])inules. This species is allied to hiundnlata in 
general appearance, but differs widely in details. The wdiite secon- 
daries, the contrasting shades of primaries, and conspicuous ordinary 
spots of the under side, are all good distinctive features. A single 
good male is in the collection U. S. Nat. Museum, from INIr. BiTice, 
and this is the type. 
KcliiiiiR brucei Smith. — Ground color of head, thorax and primaries, a 
pale luteous, varying in intensity, the maculation varying from ocheronsto rusty 
yellow. Basal line marked on costa, the basal space deepening in color outwardly 
to tlie t. a. line, where it is of the richest tint found on the wing. T. a. line 
pale, whitish inwardly sharply defined by black scales, outwardly diffuse, shading 
into the ground color of the median space. T. p. line pale, whitish, regularly 
Insinuate, crenulate and very narrow, sometimes even interrupted opposite the 
cell ; outwardly marked with black scales. S. t. space ocher or rusty yellow 
brown, sometimes even of an olivaceous tinge. S. t. line pale, broad, diffuse, 
either evenly parallel to outer margin, or indented opposite the cell, .sometimes 
almost cutting the s. t, space. Terminal space slightly darker than ground color. 
A series of small, terminal, blackish dots. Fringes concolorous, with dusky 
terminal dots. A deeper shade of ground color through outer part of median 
space, narrowed to a line at the hind margin. Reniform large, dusky, with 
blackish lateral margins, not completely defined; no orbicular. Secondaries 
whitish, with dusky outer margin, interrupted by an irregular whitish shade 
behind middle, a moderate discal s]iot and white fringes. Beneath whitish, with 
maculation of upper side incompletely reproduced, powdery; primaries with 
orbicular and reniform usually very distinct. Expands 1.00— 1.20 inches ; 25 — 
.30 mm. 
Hab . — Colorado (Bruce). 
[ have seen quite a number of this s[)ecies, and four g(tod speci- 
mens are in tbe (Museum collection. It is larger tban crenilinea, 
tbougb similarly marked, but tbe armature of tbe tibise allies it to 
.•separata. From all tbe forms of that species tbe cbaracter of tbe 
median lines will serve to separate it, tbe color sometimes being very 
similar. 
Tbe species is named after its collector wbo bas found more new 
species tban any other recent field worker in Lepidoptera, and wbo 
is as liberal as be is skillful in preparing bis specimens. 
Schiiiia n. sp. — Head, thorax and primaries a vague reddish gray, 
of a faded, washed-out hue, the maculation on primaries scarcely traceable. 
Basal and s. t. spaces a shade deeper in color, and thus rendered visible. T. a. 
line narrow, thread-like, paler, outwardly augulated in the submedian interspace. 
T. p. line narrow, crenulate, evenly curved to thesubmedian interspace and there 
somewhat abruptly incurved. S. t. line faintly marked only at costa, else not 
traceable. Reniform an indefinite, vague, dusky blotch. Secondaries whitish,
