NEW PYRALIDiE AND TORTRICIDiE FROM 

 PALM BEACH, FLORIDA. 



By C. H. Fernald. 



Marasmia floridalis, sp. nov. 



Head, thorax, fore and hind wings white with brown markings as follows : the 

 outside of the palpi, a spot on each side of the collar above, a similar but more in- 

 distinct pair on the middle of the thorax, the tips of the tegulse, a stripe from the eye 

 back to the wing and continued along the costa, the outer margin of all the wings 

 narrower behind, a large costal spot concave on each side, sending one line obliquely 

 down and in to join two parallel cross lines with pale yellow between them, and a 

 second line down and out to similar parallel but curved lines across the outer part of 

 the wing, a line between this and the brown outer margin with an inward bend in the 

 middle and connected by lines to the outer margin and the line within, a few irregular 

 lines near the base of the wing, a median band on the hind wing not reaching the 

 costa, two cross lines between this band and the outer margin each with an inward 

 angle in the middle connected together below where a line extends to the median 

 band, and a series of venular dashes in the subterminal space. Expanse of wings, 

 12-14 mm.

 Musem:n one of which is from Palm Beach and one from Key West, 

 and one in my own collection. One was bred from Vincetoxician 

 palustre by Dr. H. G. Dyar. Type no. 541 1 U. S. National Museum.
