flying up from when disturbed, common horse-mint (probably Men- 

 tha longifolia) in Jefferson Co., W. Va., at the end of July. Nu- 

 merous small Tortricid larvae were later found in the seeds and dried 

 flower sheaths, but I did not succeed in rearing them. 



Phalonia aiirorana sp. nov. 

 Expanse 11-13 mm. 



Head : speckled gray and brown ; palpi cream-white inside, shaded with 

 blackish -brown below and outside; antenna light brownish-fuscous; thorax light 

 pinkish-white, with a dark pink median streak ; patagia grayish-brown ; abdo- 

 men light gray, anal tuft pale ochreous; legs cream color, shaded with brown in 

 front. 



Forewing: shining pin-k, with obscure ochreous-brown fascia and spots as fol- 

 lows: an outwardly oblique fascia from middle of dorsum to costa beyond mid- 

 dle ; a narrow fascia from costa before apex to middle of termen ; a rounded spot 

 in lower half of wing above tornus. The lower half of the middle fascia is sprin- 

 kled with black scales on both sides. There is a small patch of black scales in 

 middle of subapical fascia, and also on the inner and upper edges of the round 

 spot above tornus. There are a few black scales in the shining pink ground 

 color between the middle fascia and round spot, and above the round spot the 

 inner half of costa is very narrowly edged with black. Cilia ochreous, preceded 

 by a black terminal line, and spotted with five evenly spaced patches of black 

 scales between apex and tornus. The black scales are longer than the ochreous 

 scales of the cilia, and each of the five patches sends a little prominence beyond 

 the outer ciliate line. 



Hind wing: very light yellowish-gray, cilia paler; underside the same, with a 

 row of brown dots between veins 5 and 6. Underside forewing smoky brown ; 

 outer half of costa dotted with pale pink ; ciliate spots repeated. 



Eight specimens : Essex County Park, N. J., light trap, Aug. 

 22d to Sept. 7th ; Kennebunkport, Maine, from Dr. Holland's col- 

 lections, Carnegie Museum, collected by G. H. Clapp, August.

 across middle. Beyond this is a large round spot,— the outer edges shining pink, 

 the interior light pinkish-brown, with a horizontal black streak through the
