AMERICAN LEPIDOPTERA. 207 



Under side gray brown ; the spots repeated ; secondaries have a 

 wavy row of six rather large white spots a little beyond the middle 

 of the disk, and nearly parallel with the hind margin; and three 

 equal spots nearer base, one in cell and two on costal margin, the 

 three forming an equilateral triangle. 



Body fuscous above, below gray white ; legs brownish gray ; palpi 

 white; antennae fuscous above annulated with white, below gray 

 white, not annulated; club dull fulvous above, black and gray below, 

 gray at tip. 



From Texas, received from Mr. Belfrage. 



Hesperia Sferens, n. sp. 



j|y(,/e. — Expands 1.2 inch. Upper side dark brown, with a greenish 

 tint and silky gloss; primaries have three small, white, elongated equal 

 spots in a vertical row next costa, halfway between the ceil and apex ; 

 and three other small white spots behind and below the cell, in a line 

 oblique to the others, the first and third of these minute, the second 

 equal to the other two together ; fringes long, pale fuscous. 



Under side of primaries brown, nearly same as above, but only clear 

 on the inner half, the costal and apical areas being thickly dusted with 

 yellow bronze scales; the spots repeated. Secondaries entirely covered 

 with yellow bronze; beyond the disk a rather zigzag row of small 

 whitish spots or points placed nearly parallel to the hind margin; 

 nearer base three other spots, one in the cell, two on costal margin, 

 and the three forming an equilateral triangle. 



Body greenish fuscous above, gray white below ; legs gray brown ; 

 palpi white yellowish in front; antennae fuscous, completely annulated 

 with white ; club black above, black and white below, tip gray. 



From a single specimen, taken at South Apache, in 1S74, by Mr. 

 Henshaw, 

 Hesperia Zamnpa, n. sp. 



Expands 1.2 inch. Upper side pale cinereous, mottled with faint 

 sreen and dull ferruginous, the latter shade prevailing on secondaries; 

 from the costa of primaries a connected line of small transparent spots 

 crosses the disk nearly to inner margin, and halfway to apex is a 

 demi-liue of three similar spots, on the inner side of which is a 

 blackish patch. Secondaries have a pale streak running across the 

 disk almost in line with the discal spots of primaries ; fringes cinereous. 

 Under side mottled whitish, brown and cinereous; the markings re- 

 peated, and in addition, nearer base of secondaries, are two indistinct 

 stripes, one on middle of the disk, the other on costal margin.
