LEPIDOPTERA OF THE KOOTENAI DISTRICT— DYAR. y07 



uncertain about this."« The synonymy is certainly erroneous, for 

 Hiibner's excellent figure is not in the least like latlft-rnKjata. 1 have 

 no direct information at present about Walker's type, but Packarcrs 

 type of Iriinnearla is before me, and I assume them to be the same, 

 since Walker's description does not disaoree. The Kaslo specimen 

 though somewhat worn, agrees well with Packard's type. 



CYMATOPHORA INQUINARIA Hulst. 



Twenty-three specimens; July 8, 12, IS, 19, '!?>, 24, 25, 26 (Payne 

 Mine), 30, 81, August 3, 5, 0, 7, and two from Mr. Cockle's collection. 

 Distinctly variable, A^et characteristic. It looks very nmch like Si/m- 

 pherta julia Hulst. The larva was not obtained. M\' other speci- 

 mens are from Placer County, Cal. (Koebele), and the Mariposa Big 

 Tree Grove, California (Dyar). 



CYMATOPHORA BIACTATA Walker. 



One specimen, Sandon (G. C. Robbins) and one from Mr. Cockle's 

 collection. 



CYMATOPHORA MATILDA, new species. 



Twent}' specimens, June o, U, lO, 13, 17, 20, 21, 24, Jul}' 14, 27, 

 and one from Mr. Cockle's collection labeled Eolii anticaria Walker; 

 but the species has vein 5 of the hind wings absent and is therefore 

 not even an iLois. 



Male antennaj with short, clavate, hairy pectinations decreasing to 

 the tip, of female simple. Yellowish white, fi-ont witli a narrow line 

 of dark scales at its summit, vertex and collar faintly yellowish, wings 

 with minute dark atoms forming a line on the base of the costal edge. 

 Two faint, dark, nearly straight lines on fore wing, one on hind wing, 

 the outer line placed unusuall}' near the margin on both wings, l)cing 

 at the outer fourth. Inner line of fore wing may be absent and both 

 are always faint. In some a faint discal dot on hind wing. Below 

 unmarked or with discal dot on both wings. Fore wing scpiare at the 

 apex but not falcate, hind wing rounded. Expanse, 24-27 nun. 



TyjM'.—C'At. No. 7880, U. S. National Museum. 



I have a specimen from Colorado. Concerning 3>i.^ mdicai'Ui 

 Walker { — >iuhaJhiria Packard), Packard states that the antenna' are 

 pectinated, which shows tiiat it is not an /v>/.s', bnt probably referable 

 to Xydrota. It is certainly not my species even if it shoidd prt)ve to be 

 a Cymatophcyra^ for mine does not agree in markings with Pat-kard's 

 figure and description. 



SYMPHERTA TRIPUNCTARIA Packard. 



One specimen, Jnly 23 (Fryc Creek) and one from Mr. Co.klc's 

 collection without label.
