wing to three times its width above and narrows below middle to half the widest 

 part; the outer starts from middle of costa and runs obliquely to dorsum before 

 anal angle, the upper half is very narrow and convex outwardly, from middle to 

 above fold it widens four times its width above but contracts slightly before 

 reaching dorsum. On the ground color between base and first fascia are about 

 six brown dots above fold and four below; between first and second fasciae are 

 two brown dots on costa and two below them, and two faint lines on dorsum ; be- 

 tween second fascia and apex are seven brown dots in costa and one in apex, each 

 is duplicated below costa ; there is ati irregular row of brown dots on termen and 

 a short vertical line of same from anal angle, on each side of which are one or 

 two scattered dots. Cilia pale fuscous, preceded by darker line. 



Hind wing: pale gray, cilia same, but shining; underside the same. 



Underside forewing: smoky gray, costa faintly dotted with brown. 



Nine specimens. Cincinnati, Ohio, March 6th to 26th ; collected 

 by Miss Annette F. Braun. 



Eiicosma yaiidana sp. nov.

Forewing: whitish-gray, lightly strigulated and dotted with fuscous. There is

 round dot above and below the fold. The middle fascia starts from middle of 

 costa as a narrow brown line to end of cell where it widens out into a small patch 

 of brown, then continues as a narrow line to outer fourth of dorsal margin. Be' 

 tween these fascise is a faint line of brown from dorsum to above middle. There 

 is a small rounded patch of lighter brown in the apex and between it and male 

 costal fold are four or five darker brown oblique costal lines. Between veins 6 

 and 7 is a row of four brown dots, with a vertical line of brown below the
