Food 'plant. — Unknown. 



Described from male type and four male paratypes from the type

A striking and distinct species falling between laticurva and holan- 

 derana in our arrangement ; but different from both in ground color, 

 •pattern, and genitalia.

 side, darkest toward apex. Face and head whitish ocherous; head 

 tufts shading into reddish ocherous. Thorax and fore wing a unicol- 

 orous reddish ocherous, in dark specimens almost rust color; no ocel-

 toward termen; cilia concolorous with wing and with a dark (brownish) 

 basal band; veins 3, 4, and 5 not approximate at termen; termen 

 decidedly slanting and very slightly concave. Hind wing pale 

 whitish ocherous, more white toward base and more yellowish toward 

 apex and termen; cilia sordid whitish with a slightly darker basal 

 band; veins 3 and 4 very long stalked. 



Male genitalia of the morrisoni-agricolana-pergandiana type ; figured

 . Type.— C&t. No. 41203, U.S.N.M. 



Paratypes. — In National collection, American Museum, and col-

Food plant. — Unknown. 



Described from male type ("June 11 '21-No. 127M," Karl R.

 female from Loma Linda, Calif. 



An easily recognized species resembling in color Kearfott's immac- 

 ulana, but with narrower fore wing, paler hind wing, and quite 

 different genitalia. In our arrangement would precede luridana 

 Walsingham. 



EUCOSMA EBURATA, new species

An ivory-colored species close and similar to invida Walsingham,

 (almost obsolete) and with no clear white unmarked area on mid 

 dorsum. 



Palpus sordid white, shaded with ferruginous-ocherous, especially 

 on under side and toward apex; third joint entirely hidden under 

 scaling of second. Face and head ferruginous-ocherous. Thorax
