Priinarie.s blackish or bronzy brown, with two parallel, oblique, white bands, 
the inner from the basal third of the inner margin to near the center of the 
costa, shaded outwardly with black ; the outer from basal two-thirds of inner 
margin to opposite the end of median vein, where it is joined by a third curved 
white band that runs from the costa just beyond the end of the first band to the 
internal angle, where it becomes faint, obsoletely enclosing two round, super- 
posed black spots Both bands are faintly shaded inwardly with black. Secon- 
daries whitish, strongly tinged with bronzy brown. Expanse of wings 19 mm. 
The inner white band is fainter than the two outer ones (while its 
bordering black shade is more distinct j, and i\Ir. Goodell’s nigripune- 
tata is founded on examples in which it is obsolete. 
Curiously enough this species has been omitted from both the 
Brooklyn Check List ami Mr. Grote’s New Check List, as well as 
from Mr. Hy. Edwards’ additions to the same (Ent. Amer. vol. iiij.

Primaries whitish bull’, consisting of a dull white ground “dusted with ocher- 
ous brown scales, thickest at the base of the wing.” The markings are exactly 
as in elegans, but much more obscure, in some examples hardly discernible. The 
white bands are scarcely paler than the ground color being defined by theocher- 
ous scales; the outer dark shade of the inner band and the round superposed 
spots at the internal angle are ocherous brown, in one example quite well de- 
fined. Secondaries very pale, darker along the outer margin. Expanse of wings 
16 — 19 mm. 
l*aoksir<lia $;oiiiiiiata Packard (Plate iv, fig. 23). 
1864. — Pack., Proc. Ent. Soc. Phil. Hi, 343, Cyrtosia. 
Primaries chalky white, irrorate with chocolate-brown scales and thickly 
duste<l with ocherous brown scales at the base of the wing and internal angle. 
Two parallel, oblique, cbocolate-brown bands, the inner somewhat undulate, 
reaching from the basal third of the inner margin to near the center of costa, 
the outer from the basal two-thirds of inner margin till it joins a third curved 
baud, which extends from the costa just beyond the end of the first band to 
just above the internal angle, where are three superposed, rounded, triangular 
white spots, the lower one very small, all narrowly surrounded by chocolate- 
brown. In the single example before me the space between the first two bauds 
is strongly filled in with chocolate-brown, especially on the costal half of the 
wing, and this shade spreads outward diti'usely beyond the third band in the 
center of the wing. Secondaries even paler than the primaries, dusted with 
brown scales. All the fringes are narrowly lined at base and near tip with 
chocolate-brown. Expanse of wings 26 mm. 
Larva.— Vi\\Q, or whitish green with four longitudinal slight ele- 
vations or ridges, viz. : one suhdorsal and one su[)ra-stigmatal on 
each side; the body terminating in a short tail. The sultdorsal ridge 
is darker green than the body, and is Itordered below with whitish.
