TINEID MOTHS FROM BRITISH COLUMBIA, WITH DESCRIP- 

 TIONS OF NEW SPECIES. 



By August IU>ck, 



U. S. Department of A(jricullixrc. 



The present paper is based mainly on a large collection made in 

 British Columbia during 1903 by Dr. Harrison G. Dyar, assisted by 

 Messrs. A. N. Caudell and R. P. Currie. It has been found expedient 

 to include descriptions of such other material as is contained in U. S. 

 National Museum from the Northwest, especially the collections received 

 at various times from Prof. T. Kincaid, Seattle, Washington, and from 

 Prof. A. B. Cordley, Corvallis, Oregon; also a large collection from 

 Washington and Idaho recently received from Mr. C. V. Piper, as well 

 as several smaller contributions from different sources. 



In addition to these, I have examined the collections of Mr. ,h W. 

 Cockle, Kaslo, British Columbia, and of Prof. O. B. Johnson, Seattle, 

 Washington, with permission to retain new forms, and also a smaller 

 collection from Mr. Theodore Bryant, Wellington, British Columbia. 



With the exception of the comparativel}' few species collected b}^ 

 Lord Walsingham in northern Califoinia and Oregon in 1S72 and 

 described by him in the Proceedings of the Zoological Society of Lon- 

 don in ISSO and 1881, very little is known of the Tineina from that 

 region, and as was to ))e expected many new forms were found, which 

 I hope ma}^ be recognized from the following descriptions. 



I regret that other duties prevent me at present from doing full 

 justice to the collections; so that I have been obliged to postijoue tlu> 

 stud}' of very many of the more obscure forms contained in Doctor 

 Dyar's material. 



Family YPONOMEUTID.E. 



ALLONONYMA, new name. (ORCHEMIA Fernald.) 



As pointed out l)y Lord Walsingham," the name Orcheinia Guenee 

 can not be employed for the genus represented by d'fana Hiibner and 

 justly separated from lleiinrophUa Hiibner {Slmisthh Leach) l»y
