in its outmost angle, not rounded, indistinct, not more or less with- 

 drawn from the margin as it is in geUiasalis from Brazil. Expanse, 

 13 mm. 



Type. — No. 16174, U.S.N.M., selected from a series of eleven spec- 

 imens; Taboga Island, February, 1912, and June, 1911 (Busck); La 

 Chorrera, May, 1912 (Busck); Aroa, Venezuela (Schaus collection). 



A larger race of this species from Costa Rica has been identified 

 as geUiasalis by Mr. Schaus, but the markings of hind wing and the 

 color agree with declivalis. A form of this species occurs m the West 

 Indies, for which I propose the name indianalis, in which the mark- 

 ings are very famt, hardly legible on either wmg. The hmd wmgs 

 have a whitish tmt toward base. Expanse, 13 mm. 



Type. — No. 16175, U.S.N.M., selected from 20 specimens, Santiago 

 de Cuba, Cuba, June, 1902 (W. Schaus); Jamaica (Schaus collection); 

 Culcbra Island, Porto Rico, February, 1899 (A. Busck); Grenada, 

 British West Indies (Schaus collection). 



STENIA ACUMINALIS, new species. 



A rather large form, brownish black shaded, with a slight ocherous 

 tint, which comes out strongly on the costa in rubbed specimens; 

 lines whitish, black edged, essentially as in geUiasalis. Hmd wing 

 black, whitish only on the costa, the Imes as in declivalis, but softened 

 and somewhat less contrasted. Expanse, 14 mm. 



Type. — No. 16176, U.S.N.M., selected from nine specimens. La 

 Chorrera, May, 1912 (Busck); Trmidad River, June, 1912 (Busck); 

 Corozal, Canal Zone, July, 1912 (C. P. Crafts, J. Zetek); Sixola River, 

 Costa Rica, September (W. Schaus). 



The Costa Rican specimen was labeled geUiasalis by Mr. Schaus, 

 but it shows the characteristic pointed fore wing of this species.
