short and less than half the. length of the fourth, sixth, seventh and eighth white 

 lines. The first to sixth are outwardly oblique, the seventh vertical and eighth 

 inwardly obliqe. The dark costal dashes on each side of the sixth white line 

 join together below and form a distinctly defined sinuate line, the outer edge of 

 which rests on middle of outer margin. The inner boundary of this line is de- 

 fined by a line of bluish lustrous scales, which also separates it from outer edge 

 of ocellic patch. The pale ground color covers upper two-fifths of wing on costa 

 before central fascia, thence descends in an easy sweep, with almost parallel 

 edges between dorsal and lunate spots to the dorsum, then into and forming the 

 ocellic space; a faint shade of darker scales crosses it on upper edge of cell, and 

 in the ocellic space it is slightly overlaid with darker scales. The lunate spot at 

 its outer end is cut by a short horizontal line of black scales, with a dot of same 

 above the line. Cilia shining white, cut by a long black dash beneath apex and 

 a shorter one below this, and margined inwardly by a row of black dots between 

 apex and middle ; below apex outer ends of cilia shaded with olivaceous-cinereous. 



Hind wing: olivaceous-gray, cilia paler, preceded by a darker and a lighter 

 line, the laiter the narrowest. 



Underside both wings: shining fuscous, hind wing paler than forewing; ciner- 

 eous along costa of ford wing, with darker spots repeated. Several dark dots on 

 outer half of costa of hind wing. Cilia cinereous. 



Nineteen specimens ; male and female, one Seattle, Wash., O. B. 

 Johnson, No. 51 ; eighteen, Wellington, Br., Col., Rev. Geo. W.

Cotypes in U. S. Nat. Mus. 



Eiiarmouia walsinghami sp. nov. 



Expanse 15-20 mm. 



Head: smoky brown; palpi light brown, darker on ends of scales and apical 

 joint; antennae fuscous; thorax bronzy-black; abdomen dark fuscous, anal tuft 

 brownish-ochreous; legs light brownish-ochreous, annulated and dusted with 

 blackish-brown. 



Forewing: brownish-black, on the inner half of costa are seven or eight ochre- 

 ous dots on the extreme edge, four larger and more prominent dots are on the 

 outer half, but do not extend below the edge. The white dorsal patch is large 

 and roughly triangular in shape, it extends to middle of wing on the dorsum, 

 within the spot are two small black dots; there is a gray shade extending from 

 upper end of the white patch to the costa before middle; a similar gray shade 

 extends from the three inner costal marks; beyond the middle, to middle of cell 

 and from the fourth, a pair of lines of the same color to the middle of the termen ; 

 between these gray shades and between the outer one and termen the ground 

 color is overlaid with scattered black and ochreous-brown scales. The ocellus 

 consists of a large U-shaped mark of gray-metallic scales, the lower rounded part 

 resting on the termen above the angle, and the upper open and extending to be- 

 yond middle of wing. Cilia smoky brown, preceded by irregular darker line. 



Hindwing: dark smoky brown ; underside the same, but less dark cilia shin- 

 ing fuscous.
