Hindwing: dark bronzy-brown, cilia grayish-brown ; underside bronzy-brown, 

 costal spots strongly repeated ; over both wings is an irridescent sheen or bloom, 

 when held at certain angles. 



Forty-five specimens: Anglesea, N. J., from middle of May to 

 end of June; one specimen, labelled "Mass.," from C. V. Riley 

 collection, National Museum.

Nearest to interstinetana Clem., but readily separated by the wliite 

 dorsal mark of the latter. This species occurs in countless numbers 

 in the shrubbery along Five- Mile Beach. At every step dozens 

 rise and settle on the leaves of any convenient plant, where, for a 

 moment or two, they strut around, very similar to the habits of the 

 Choreutis. 



Eiiarmonia dana sp. nov. « a L ^ V\ "vk. 



Expanse 12-13 mm. "^' 



Head: hoary-brown; palpi same, but cinereous at base; antenna gray, finely 

 annulated with black; thorax hoary-brown, with an olivaceous tinge; abdomen 

 fuscous, tuft cinereous; legs whitish-gray, dusted with brown. 



Forevving: olivaceous-brown, eight or nine obscure whitish dots on costa, those 

 beyond middle geminate; from each costal spot descends a line of pale blue, be- 

 fore the middle these are short, the two in the middle join a quarter below costa 

 and send an oblique line to dorsum before the obsolete ocellic spot. The two 

 spots beyond this blend and send a single line to termen below apex The apical 

 part of wing is minutely dotted with yellow scales. There are four black dots on 

 termen below middle, and the lines of blue scales are bordered inwardly with 

 black dots. Cilia shining, leaden-brown. 



Hindwing: smoky brown, cilia shining, leaden-brown. 



Underside forewing and hindwing: shiny smoky brown, with costal spots 

 faintly repeated. 



Eight specimens : Moutclair, N. J., May 24 ; Caldwell, N. J., 

 May 17th and 22d ; Wyoming Co., Fa., 2300 ft., June 17th. 



Eiiarmonia daiidana sp. nov. 

 Expanse 12 mm. ^ • 



Head and palpi cinereous ; antenna shining fuscous; thorax brownish-fuscous; 

 abdomen dark fuscous, with a purplish reflection, anal tuft gray; legs whilish- 

 gray, dusted with fuscous. 



Forewing: smoky brown, in certain lights with a metallic sheen over the 

 whole surface. Before the middle the costa is marked with closely set dots of 

 obscure white, each terminating below in a few pale blue scales. Beyond the 

 middle are five conspicuous geminate white spots. The inner one sends a line of 

 blue obliquely to upper angle of cell ; from the middle one a similar blue line 

 goes to termen below apex. Above the anal angle and well before the termen are 

 four horizontal black lines, enclosed before and behind by vertical bars of shining 

 lilaceous scales. This ocellic spot is higher up and farther in than its usual posi- 

 tion. A line of black scales lie between the two blue lines from costa. The
