62 AMERICAN LEPIDOPTERA. 



Enarmoiiia vana sp. nov. 



Expanse 13-15 mm. 



Head and thorax dark gray, with a bronzy tinge, face pale yellowish gray ; 

 palpi yellowish-gray, with tips of scales and apical joint blackish ; autennse fus- 

 cous, finely annulated with yellowish-gray; abdomen blackish-fuscous above, 

 cinereous beneath ; legs whitish-cinereous, thickly powdered with dark brown. 



Forewing: shining bronzy-brown ; the strongest marked character is theocellic 

 spot, consisting of a patch of cream-colored scales, with a pinkish tinge and divi- 

 ded by four horizontal black lines; before and beyond this i)atch is a vertical bar 

 of golden-metallic scales, also with a pinkish hue. The costa is marked by about 

 six geminate cream-colored dashes ; from the two pairs before the middle descend 

 obliquely to top of cell obscure pinkish-metallic lines, which merge there, and an 

 irregular and more or less obscure fascia of the same color reaches the dorsum at 

 middle of wing. Beyond the middle the first and third pair of spots give off lines 

 of pink-metallic, which approach each other about the middle of wing and nearly 

 merge into the inner bar of the ocellic spot. A similar line curves outward from 

 the second spot before apex, but ends before the termen ; the dot before the apex 

 gives forth a similar line, which runs into termen under the apex and causes a 

 break in the black terminal line. The scales of the ground color of the outer 

 half of wing are very faintly tipped with yellowish, giving a strigulated appear- 

 ance. Cilia shining leaden. 



Hind wing : light bronzy-brown, cilia same, with a leaden hue ; underside same. 



Underside forewing: darker than hindwing, costal spots strong, repeated. 



Eight specimens: Colfax, Placer Co., Cal., July ; collected by A. 

 H. Vacheil. 



Eiiarmonia tana sp. uov. 



Expanse, %, 12-13 mm.; J, 15-16 mm. 



Head: olivaceous-gray, collar and face cinereous-gray; palpi cinereous, third 

 joint blackish ; antennae fuscous; thorax olivaceous-gray, patagia streaked with 

 whitish-gray; abdomen blackish-fuscous, with a few long white hairs from poste- 

 rior segments ; legs cinereous, dotted and annulated with dark brown. 



Forewing: basal area dark leaden-gray, outwardly irrorated with yellow, fol- 

 lowed by a broad cream-yellow central fascia, beyond which the leaden-gray 

 ground color is heavily irrorated with vertical lines of creamy-yellow scales, ex- 

 cept in the ocellic area, where the yellow lines are horizontal and separate the 

 four horizontal black lines. From the outer third of costa is a wedge-shaped, 

 cream-colored patch extending to middle of cell, and between its lower end and 

 the central fascia is.a smaller rectangular spot of the same color. This costal 

 patch is marked on either side by a more intense yellow spot on costa, and is 

 interrupted by one strong and one weak black costal dot; there is a similar black 

 costal dot in central fascia. There are three transverse lines of shining leaden- 

 metallic scales in the middle of the wing, two in the central fascia, the inner a 

 little beyond the inner edge and extending only to middle of wing, the outer 

 outlining this fascia, the third an equal distance beyond the second, its lower 

 half forms the vertical inner bar of the ocellic space. There is a fourth line of 

 the same scales from a broad white costal patch before apex to anal angle, inter- 

 rupted twice, its lower half forms the outer vertical bar of the ocellic spot. There 

 is a fine black terminal line, and the cilia is shining cinereous.
