naked, ovate depression and projecting rim, from the lower part of which 

 rises a conic tubercle, somewhat exceeding the surrounding rim ; palpi 

 very short and slender ; thorax and abdomen slight ; vestiture of the 

 former consisting of scales and compressed hair; primaries full, with 

 convex costal and rounded outer margin; venation unknown as yet; legs 

 moderate, tibiae spinose, anterior somewhat abbreviated, with a moderate 

 claw at inner and a spine at outer edge. 



Closely related to the preceding, but differing by the spinose tibia. Dr. 

 Harvey in his generic description says nothing of the clypeal modifica- 

 tion. 



This genus is closely allied to the Acontinae and may, perhaps, find a 

 place there at some future day. 



The species is 



G. septempiinclata, Harv., Buf. Bui. II., 278 (PI. VIII, fig. 8).— Entirely 

 white, with seven small black spots arranged as shown in the figure. Very readily 

 recognized, and well known, but sufficiently rare in collections to have made it 

 impossible for me to get a specimen from which the neuration might be studied. 

 Expands J inch. 20-22 millim. 

 Ha hit at. — Texas.

 Papilio 1, 176. 



" Clypeus full ; infra clypeal plate projecting ; fore tibia with a claw 

 on the inside at extremity of joint ; a succession of three spines outside ; 

 all the tibia spinose ; thorax untufted hairy ; antennae of male simple, 

 ciliate beneath ; eyes naked." 



This genus is unknown to me, and in what respect it differs from 

 Tricopis or Schinia I can't discover from the description, except it is in 

 the more elongate tibia ; else every word will apply to Tricopis ch7\i/sel- 

 lus. 



B. inxa, Grt., Papilio 1. 17fi. — Primaries and thorax very pale yellow; sec- 

 ondaries white, immaculate, silky ; primaries with a curved t. p. line of faint 

 ochrey dots ; two faint cellular dots ; a dot or two in place of t. a. line ; subtermi- 

 nal line a succession of similar dots: beneath of yellowish white. Expands % 25 

 9 30 millim. 



Habitat. — New Mexico.

" Vestiture scaly ; eyes naked ; labial palpi short ; front full without ex- 

 cavation or tubercle ; infra clypeal plate prominent ; tibia non-spinose ;
