AUGUST, 1863. 231 



vein long, entering the costa behind the tip ; subcostal simple, 

 attenuated towards base; discal vein oblique, with two 

 branches, the lower one arched. Median 3-branched, the 

 two superior from a common point. The fold slightly 

 thickened. Submedian and internal distinct. 



Fore-wing, the first subcostal branch arises about the basal 

 third, beyond which are three branches, the apical furcate 

 near the tip, both branches entering the costa just above it. 

 The origins of the first and second branches separated. 

 Discal vein has two branches. Median 3-branched, the two 

 posterior from a common point. Fold thickened. Sub- 

 median with basal fork. 



Head rather rough *(?). No ocelli. Antennas scarcely 

 one-half so long as fore-wings, filiform, slightly denticulate 

 beneath. Labial palpi arched, the whole of the terminal 

 joint being above the vertex; second joint long, twice the 

 length of the terminal, flattened, with appressed scales, except 

 at the tip ; terminal smooth, cylindrical, slender. Maxillary 

 palpi not perceptible. Tongue at least twice the length of 

 the labial palpi, scaled. 



JifthloS E. ? Packardella. Fore-wings gray, tinted along the costa, 

 especially at the base, with roseate; slightly streaked and 

 dusted with deep brown. From the base of the wing, on the 

 costa, arises a deep brown irregular stripe, which bends 

 towards the inner margin to about the middle of the fold, 

 and thence curves to the middle of the costa, and throws off', 

 towards the inner margin, a short hook margined internally 

 with white, and above it a streak towards the base of the 

 wing with white in the angle. Hind-wings pale gray. 



Antennas fuscous, tinted with roseate at the base. Head 

 gray. Labial palpi gray ; second joint tinted with roseate 

 and dusted with fuscous; terminal with a fuscous ring near 

 the tip. 



I have before me a single specimen, in tolerably good con- 

 dition, received from Mr. Packard.
