8 INSECUTOR INSClTlit MENSTRUUS 



Anomis rubida Schaus. 



Anomis rubida Schaus, Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist., (8), vii, 79, 191 1. 

 Very close to barata Schaus. A trifle smaller ; fore wing and 

 thorax bright dark red, all the markings touched with silvery gray. Sec- 

 ondary sexual characters as in barata. Only the type female and one 

 male are before me. 



Anomis patagiata Schaus. 



Anomis patagiata Schaus, Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist., (8), vii, 80, 1911. 



Readily recognized by the long patagia of the male. The females 

 vary from red to chocolate brown and umber brown. Besides the types 

 from Costa Rica, 1 have a series from Mexico labeled " exada Hiibn.," 

 which is seen to be a misidentifiication in the light of present knowledge. 



Anomis cataggelus Dyar. 



This will be described in my fourth Mexican paper above alluded 

 to. I have a series of 1 5, all from Mexico, and very uniform in appear- 

 ance. The long, angled wings, umber brown color, and large dark, 

 clouded reniform are characteristic. Females, however, are very difficult 

 to separate from patagiata Schaus. 



Anomis innocua Schaus. 



Anomis innocua Schaus, Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist., (8), vii, 80, 1911. 



A small, dark, inconspicuous species, of which only the single male 

 type is before me. 



Anomis flammea Schaus. 



Anomis flammea Schaus, Trans. Am. Ent. Soc, xxi, 238, 1894. 



The patagia are broad and tufted strongly with dark crimson scales ; 

 wings fiery red ; the pouch at base of costa beneath is filled with white 

 wool. A very striking but small species. Five specimens are before me, 

 all from Mexico. 



Anomis texana Riley. 



Anomis texana Riley, 4th Rept. Ent. Comm., 350, 1885. 

 A distinct species, not a synonym of luridula as given in Bulletin 52, 

 U. S. Nat. Mus. Swelling at base of costa of male not conspicuous 

 above, but the fovea below well filled with modified scales. The male 

 patagia are elongated, covering two segments of the abdomen. Two 

 males and three females from Riley's bred types from Texas are before
