slenderer. It was taken by my kind friend Mr. 

 James Behrens, at Soda Springs, California. 



Polia Epichysis, Grote, Can. Ent. xii. p. 219. 



19. Heliophila Dia. 



This comparatively short-winged species differs 

 from our Eastern forms by the absence of dark 

 shades accompanying the median vein and other 

 comparative characters. A number of fresh ex- 

 amples have been received from San Prancisco by 

 Dr. Bailey.

20. Zosteropoda Hirtipes. 



This singular genus is allied to Heliophila. The 

 eyes are naked. The labial palpi rather long ; the 

 middle and hind legs tufted. The fore wings are 

 narrow, with parallel margins ; the hind wings 

 have a fringing of longer scales on their upper 

 surface along the main nervures. The abdomen is 

 without dorsal tufts, and well exceeds the secon- 

 daries. The markings are very simple, and the 

 colour is a brownish orange-yellow. The species 

 has been collected by several entomologists about 

 San Erancisco, and was originally sent to me by 

 Mr. Henry Edwards.
