Genus MYELOIS Hubner. 



MYELOIS VENIPARS, new species. 



Costa gray- white; inner area broadly pale brownish; inner line 

 black, broad, curved a little and widening to median vein where it is 

 sharply cut off and continued to margui by a faint brown shade; 

 discal dots black, separate; median vein outwardly, with vems 2, 3, 

 and 4, distmctly black-lined to outer line; a slight shade from cell 

 down to margin near middle; outer line far out, in-angled opposite 

 cell, double, pale filled, narrowly followed by black at costa; terminal 

 space faintly blackish streaked on the veins; terminal dots small, 

 distinct. Hind wmg translucent soiled whitish, veins darker, margin 

 fuscous shaded; fringe pale with famt dark interlme. Expanse, 

 male, 16 mm.; female, 19 mm. 



Cotypes. — Male and female. No. 18208, U.S.N.M.; male, Oaxaca, 

 Mexico (Schaus collection); female, Hermosillo, Mexico, bred from 

 orange, November 2, 1913 (R. S. Woglum). 



Sir G. F. Hampson has determined the male as Myelois solitella 

 Zeller, but after studying Zeller's description and figure and Ragonot's 

 redescription of that Colombian species, I feel satisfied that it is not 

 the one before me. The present species is close to M. transitella 

 Walker, but differs most in the dark Imes on the discal nervules. 

 Genus CABIMA Dyar. 



CABIMA MOCHLOPHLEPS, new species. 



Fore wing soft gray, the veins lined with black, most distinctly 

 around the end of the cell and the veins close to their origins there- 

 from; an enlargement at base of veins 4-5 represents the discal spot; 

 a brown shade through the center of the whig, cut off sharply and a 

 little obliquely through the center of the cell; ordmary Imes absent; 

 subtermmal Ime far from the margin, whitish, denticulate, slightly 

 curved. Hind wing translucent whitish, the veins narrowly, costa 

 and terminal Ime with its duplication in the fringe fuscous. Expanse, 

 30 mm.

 tmct dots on costa, median and vein 1 ; outer line of numerous streaks 

 on the vems, confluent at costa and followed there by whitish; discal 

 dot faintly indicated. Hind wing broad, pale mouse gray, the long 

 fringes concolorous, but a dark terminal line as on forewing. Expanse, 

 27 mm.
