broader, and the black, propinquitous, median lines 

 are visible. The apical patch of T. JPudens is want- 

 ing in T. Lorata, in which the basal patch is notched 

 superiorly and less extended. The stigmata are 

 completely defined in T. Lorata, which is found in 

 Washington Territory, and thus replaces T. Puclens 

 in the fauna of the West Coast. The types of this 

 species and Bombycia Semiclrcularis are contained 

 in the collection of Mr. Berthold Neumoegen, who 

 has kindly allowed me to figure them.

3. Harrisimemna Trisignata. 



This handsome Moth is found in many localities 

 in the Eastern and Middle States. The curious 

 larva has been reared by my kind friend Mrs. 

 Bridgham at her country residence, Seekonk, Rhode 

 Island. The figure is taken from a specimen pre- 

 sented to me by Mrs. Bridgham. It appears that 

 Dr. Harris's name for this Moth was not published 

 until after his death, and in the mean time the 

 species had been described in the British Museum 

 Lists. The genus, which differs strongly from any 

 other, I have named in memory of Dr. Harris ; and 

 the common term for the Moth is " Harris's Zig- 

 zag."
