SCOPARIA ALBIPUNCTATA Druce 



Sooparia albipunctata Deuce, Biol. Cent. -Am., Lep. Het., vi>l. 2, p. 563, 1899. 

 Described from Volcan Irazu. Costa Rica. I have a single female, 

 slightly larger than Druce's measurement, Volcan Santa Maria, Gua- 

 temala, Ju^y (Schaus and Barnes). A very obscurely marked species, 

 but the inner line of fore wing is erect and dentate, not oblique. 



SCOPARIA TRICOLOR Zeller 



Scoparia tricolor Zb3Xeb, Stett. Ent. Zeit., vol. 33, p. 478, 1872. 



Described from Colombia, and I have no material that I can 

 positively identfy with the name. Scoparia ci/clophora Dyar from 

 Mexico, however, evidently comes very close. This is represented in 

 the collection by one female only. The following is close, but I 

 think not identical : 



SCOPARIA MOLLICULELLA, new species 



As in cyclophora^ slightly smaller, grayer, the blotching about as 

 in the named species but lighter, scarcely contrasted. The reddish 

 color inheres only in the reniform, which is composed of a ring open 

 below or of two opposed cusps. This is possibly the male of oyclo- 

 phora, but much more probably a derivative form addicted to high 

 altitudes. Expanse, 14 mm. {cyclophora expands 16 mm.). 



Type — Male, paratypes, two males, Cat. No. 41348, U.S.N.M.; 

 Popocatepetl Park, Mexico, 8,000 feet, June, 1906 (W Schaus). 



SCOPARIA STEREOSTIGMA Dyar 



Scoparia stereostigma Dyak, Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus., vol. 54, p. 369, 1918. 



Smaller and more compactly shaped than moUiculella but evi- 

 dently allied. Six specimens from Jalapa, Mexico, the type locality, 

 are in the collection and four more from Volcan Santa Maria, 

 Guatemala. 



SCOPARIA MULTIFACIES, new species 



Fore wing light gray, shaded with blackish beyond inner line and 

 terminally, sometimes extensively shaded, rarely with a bronzy reflec- 

 tion; inner line pale, erect or slightly curved or irregular; orbicular 

 and claviform obscure in the dark shade following it; median space 

 generally clear gray ; reniform a ringlet or quadrate or blotched, in 

 one specimen covered and surrounded by a reddish shade to the 

 outer line; this pale, notched more or less subeostally, crenulate, 

 rather regular, preceded by a slender dark line, the termen solidly 

 dark except for more or less distinct traces of an angled white sub- 

 terminal line. Hind wing whitish, solid fuscous about the margin. 

 Expanse, 13 mm.
