THE SEPARATION OF SOME SPECIES OF UNEODES 95 



White silvery subterminal line straight or crenulate, not forming a loop or spot. 

 Hind wing with veins 4-5 from the cell. 



Fore wing with sinuous brown band from middle of inner margin to costa 



then toward tomus and reflexed to apex. 



This band continuous ..... integra Zeller 



This band broken into oval patches . . . intermpta Zeller 



Fore wing without such band ; stigmata large, dark, outlined by white shades, 



triangulalis Moschler 

 Hind wing with veins 4-5 coincident . . . . contortalis Guenee 



Lineodes elcodes Dyar. 



Ciraphorus elcodes Dyar, Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus., xxxviii, 272, 1910. 



Six specimens are before me from Mexico. 

 Lineodes hieroglyphalis Guenee. 



Lineodes hieroglyphalis Guenee, Spec. Gen., viii, 235, 1854. 

 Stenoptycha convolutalis Hampson. 



Four from Brazil and two from Costa Rica are before me, the latter 

 labeled convolutalis. I am unable to separate them specifically from the 

 Brazilian specimens. 



Lineodes monetalis, new species. 



Near hieroglyphalis; smaller, frailer, the markings on hind wing 

 clouded and obsolescent, the marks on disk separated into two compo- 

 nent rings ; marks of fore wing much the same as in the allied form, the 

 tooth of subterminal line blurred and often forming a triangular spot. Ex- 

 panse, 1 6 mm. 



Type, No. 1 6003, U. S. Nat. Mus. ; Misantla, Mexico, November, 

 1910 (R. Miiller). Also two others from Mexico, one from Costa 

 Rica, and ten from Panama. 



Lineodes vulnifica, new species. 



Allied to hieroglyphalis, but the spots of hind wing reduced practi- 

 cally to obliteration ; a small round spot remains subcostally and a little 

 oval one on submedian ; fore wing much as in hieroglyphalis in general, 

 but the detciils all slightly different ; most noticeable is the shape of the 

 angular marking formed by the outer line, being here strongly excavate 

 submarginally, while in hieroglyphalis it is straight or gently arcuate. 

 Expanse, 18 mm. 



Type, No. 1 6004, U. S. Nat. Mus. ; Cayenne, French Guiana, June,
