point, and on one side of one specimen appear to become coincident, 

 as in Kearfott's figure. 



Genus Mesolia Ragonot. 



M. olivella Grote. Camden, Ark., June 2, 191 8. 



This is the species which generally passes for dcntclla. The latter 

 is considered by Barnes and McDunnough the same as inccriclla. 



M. huachucella Kearfott. Mesquite near Mesilla Park, N. M., July 12, 1917; 

 Lordsburg, July 13, 1917; Tucson, Ariz., July 22, 1917. 



This species is very close to the type of the genus, and has R^ free. 



Genus Pseudoschoenobius Fernald. 

 P. opalescalis Hulst. Deming, N. M., July 12, 19 17. 



Genus Eufernaldia Hulst. 



This genus is quite a typical Ancylolomid, though it has always 

 been placed with the Crambid genera. It was taken at Marfa, Tex., 

 May 15, 1918, and at Limpia Canon in the Davis Mts., Tex., on July 

 7, 1917, at over 5000 feet elevation; both times at light in grass-land. 



Genus Raphiptera Hampson. 



I should interpret this genus as Crambid in the restricted sense, 

 rather than Ancylolomid. The cell is widely open and there is no 

 trace of a vein from its end, so that it seems most probable that Sc 

 has been lost, rather than M^ as Hampson indicates. The pattern is 

 also Crambid. I have typical minimcUa from Anderson, S. C. June 

 5, 1917, and Leroy, Ala., June 11, 1917. Specimens from the vicinity 

 of Ithaca (McLean Bogs, Tompkins Co., N. Y.) appear to be argil- 

 laccella rather than minimcUa, but I am not at all sure the forms are 

 distinct species. Fernald reports minimella from New York, but it 

 may be from the austral part of the state. The minimella from An- 

 derson were taken at a trap lantern in oak woods, and the one from 

 Leroy in the same way on the bank of a creek in pine and oak woods. 

 The argillaceclla from McLean on the other hand are confined to the 

 heath-cover of a couple of peat-bogs, as is the species at Mer Bleue, 

 Ontario.
