golden-metallic lines to a third below costa. The ocellic spot is olivaceous-yellow, 

 crossed by four horizontal black lines; the vertical side-bars are fjolden-metallic, 

 the inner one connecting with first costal line beyond middle. The dorsal white 

 patch, which is divided by a brown dot on dorsum, about three times as long as 

 wide, curving outward slightly and reaching but a trifle above fold ; from the 

 outer upper edge it is continued as a metallic line to above middle of wing ap- 

 proaching but not joining the metallic line from costal spot before middle. The 

 tips of the scales on upper half to middle, in apex and before termen are tipped 

 with yellow. There is a dark brown terminal line cut by a white dash below 

 apex. Cilia shining fuscous. 



Hindwing: bronzy-brown, paler towards base, cilia same inwardly, white out- 

 wardly; underside shining gray-white. 



Underside forewing: shining bronzy-brown, with costal spots repeated. In 

 certain lights there is a greenish bloom over both surfaces of both wings. 



About fifty specimens : Carmel-by-tlie-Sea, Monterey Co., Cal., 



April; San Luis Obispo, Cal., March; all collected by A. H. 



Vachell. 



Eiiartuonia zana sp. uov. 



Expanse 10-15 mm. 



Head and thorax grayish-brown ; palpi pale clay color, ends of tuft and third 

 joint blackish ; antennse fuscous-brown ; abdomen blackish-fuscous, paler between 

 joints, anal tuft ochreous; legs pale brown, heavily overlaid with black. 



Forewing: bronzy-brown, with a metallic bloom in certain lights; the costa is 

 marked with three obscure whitish spots before middle, from the outer two of 

 which an obscure milky white shining fascia follows to middle then angles inward 

 to dorsal margin. Beyond middle is a group of four white costal dots, obscurely 

 geminate, the inner sends a line of shining silvery scales obliquely to middle 

 thence down to dorsum, where it forms the inner bar of the ocellic spot; a short 

 shining line from fourth spot joins the preceding at middle of wing. Before the 

 apex are two hook-shaped white dashes, the outer one sending a broken line of 

 shining scales to middle of termen ; before these two dashes is an obscure white 

 spot on costa, which sends a broken line of metallic scales to anal angle, the lower 

 part forming the outer vertical bar of ocellus. The ocellus consists of a shining 

 yellowish patch, divided by hnir short horizontal lines, these lines do not reach 

 the side-bars, the outer bar is defined on its inner side by a broken row of black 

 dots, with a few black dots on its outer side. The ground color of the outer half 

 of the wing is heavily overlaid with golden-yellow scales. Cilia shining fuscous, 

 preceded by a dark fuscous line. 



Hindwing: rather light bronze, cilia pale gray, shining ; underside brownish- 

 gray, leather heavily reticulated with pale gray scales, especially at outer end of 

 wing. 



Underside forewing: upper half bronzy-brown, shading into a brownish gray 

 below; costal spots repeated. 



Twenty-four specimens : Wellington, Br. Col., May and June, 

 Geo. W. Taylor and T. Bryant. 



This species is similar to E. vana, but can be separated by the 

 arrangement of costal. spots and the ocellic spots.
