HARRISOX «. DYAR. 
Cocoon . — As in the other species of Cochlidipe, subspherical, hard 
and brown, the end opening as a little circular lid.

The ground color of the primaries is the same as in geminata, the lines and 
superposed white spots are the same (though in one example there is a trace of a 
fourth white spot), but the ocherous brown or sable brown and chocolate-brown 
shadings are more extensive, w'hile the secondaries are pulverulent dark blackish 
brown. A male example befoi’e me (fig. 25) has the basal space filled in with 
sable brown, the rest of the wing chocolate-brown, obscuring the lines, except a 
subquadrate apical space, where the white ground color prevails, irrorate with 
brown scales. Fringe paler at base. The female (fig. 24) has a basal ocherous 
brown shading, but the chocolate-brown shade is confined to the space enclosed 
by the second and third bands at the internal angle, leaving the ground color to 
appear on the rest of the wing. Fringe ocherous. Expanse 23 — 27 mm. 
Mr. Grote’s ocellata was apparently founded on examples similar 
to the female I have described above. 
Larva . — Extremely similar to that of geminata. I have not noted 
any differences. 
Cocoon . — Not different from that of geminata. 
Packardia gooclellii Grote. 
1880. — Grote, Can. Ent. xii, 242, Packardia. 
It seems probable that this species is only a very dark variety of 
P. albipunctata, but I have not seen enough specimens to be able to 
decide. Mr. Grote’s description is substantially as follows, and well 
characterizes this form : 
“Entirely blackish, with a faint brown shading about internal angle, where 
are two white, unequal spots. Fritige blackish, concolorous. interlined with pale 
and with a distinct white fleck below apices. The usual lines on the primaries 
are lost in the ground color; the outer may be made out, followed by a whitish 
shade on costa. The costal edge at apices is whitish. Secondaries concolorous, 
blackish, paler beneath ; the fringe is paler outwardly. Expanse 20 — 22 mm.” 
The species of Packardia may be separated by the following table: 
Spots above internal angle of primaries black or blackish. 
Fore wings bronzy brown elegaiis Pack. 
Fore wings whitish buff . fiisca Pack. 
Spots above internal angle of primaries white. 
Secondaries white geiiiiiiata Pack. 
Secondaries black. 
Fore wings partly obscured by dark chocolate-brown shadings. 
albipunctata Pack, 
goodellii Grote. 
Fore wings entirely dark brown
