NO. 1304. REVISION OF AMERICAN GELECIIIID MOTHS— BUSCK. 851 



National Museum are alyo bred and collected specimens from Virginia, 

 New York, and Kansas. 



Food plant. — Agrinumia. 



This and the following species have a marked reseml)lance to the 

 anthyUldelhi group of the genus Ajjroserema^ which has caused former 

 workers (Zeller, Stainton, and Walsingham) to place it in that genus 

 in spite of the differing wing form and venation, but they clearly 

 belong to the present genus, and only indicate the relationship of the 

 two genera. 



ANACAMPSIS TRISTRIGELLA Walsingham. 



Oelechia (Anacampm) trwlrigella Walsingham, Trans. Amer. Ent. f^oc. Phila., 



X, 1882, p. 181.— CoQUiLLETT, Papilio, III, 1883, p. 91. 

 Gelechia trislrigella Comstock, Rep. U. S. Ent. Conim., V, 1890, p. (>'>9. — Ku.ey,

 Anaaimpsis trktrigella Busck, Can. Ent., XXXIII, 1901, p. 15; Dyar'n List 



Amer. Lpp., No. 5712, 1903. 



Of this easily recognized species I have identitied a spin-imen from 

 Kansas in U. S. National Museum, which identitication 1 sulrsequently 

 had opportunity to verify by comparison with the t3'pe in Professor 

 Fernald's collection. 



Food plant. ^Corylus aaierlcana (Coquillett). 



ANACAMPSIS LEVIPEDELLA Clemens. 



Strohisin lecipeddla Clemens, Proc. I]nt. Soc. Phila., II, 1863, p. 4; Stainton 

 E(i. Tin. N. Am., 1872, p. 207.— Chambers, Bull. U. S. Geol. Surv., IV, 1878, 

 p. 162.— Frey, Stett. Ent. Zeit, XXXIX, 1878, p. 251.— Riley, Smith's 

 List Lep. Bor. Am., No. 5584, 1891. 



Anacampsis kvipedeUa Busck, Can. Ent., XXXIII, 1901, p. 15; Lyar's List Amer. 

 Lep., No. 5713, 1903. 



The t3'pe of this species is lost, but no doubt whatever exists about 

 the identit}' of this common, striking, well-described species. 



1 have examined specimens determined by Chambers in the Museum 

 of Comparative Zoology, in Cambridge, and specimens named by Lord 

 Walsingham in the National Museum. 



While this species has a certain general resemblance to the genus 

 Strohisla^ its structural characters place it in AttdcamjJsiK., in which 

 it finds a near relative in the preceding species, trktr'ujcUa Walsingham. 



Professor Fre3''s excellent description of the characteristic under- 

 side of the wings is an important addition, and emphasizes the rela- 

 tionship with this group. 



The species is rather connnon around Washington City.
