76 AMERICAN LEPIDOPTERA. 



Between the fasciae are two dots, and between outer fascia and apex four to six 

 ujoi'e of the same color. There is a small rounded spot of reddish-brown below 

 costa at outer fifth. Cilia whitish. 



Hindvving: dark purplish-gray ; cilia white, underside paler; underside fore- 

 wing dark purplish-gray ; the outer half of costa dull ochreous, with a dark spot 

 at end of each vein. 



Three specimens : Chicago, 111., June, J. H. Reading ; Hastings, 

 Fla., March 19th, AY. G. Dietz, collected by A. J. Brown. 



Phalonia ziscana sp. nov. 



Expanse 19 mm. 



Head : light fawn, shaded with darker above eyes, cream-white, dark fawn on 

 outside; antenna pale fawn; thorax pale fawn, streaked with darker fawn ; ab- 

 domen and legs grayish-fawn, latter banded and powdered with dark fuscous. 



Forewing: light fawn, marked with reddish-fawn and silvery-white lines. 

 There is a streak of reddish-fawn from base to inner fourth between top of cell 

 and costa, its outer edge oblique, and with a darker oblique shade in the middle ; 

 below this is a large dark fawn spot, narrow at base, broadening outward, reach- 

 ing iuner thiid in middle of wing ; its outer edge oblique, surrounded by shining 

 white line. In middle of costa a narrow oblique band goes to top of cell ; it is 

 darkest on costa. Below is a small, flattened ovate Indian-red spot, circled by 

 shining white at end of cell ; below is a paler spot of the same size, below which 

 is a large sjjot on dorsum, its upper half Indian-red and lower half pale fawn. 

 Both of these spots are enclosed by shining white lines. A line of shining white 

 runs from apex to anal angle; between it and termen is a line of olivaceous-fawn. 

 From the outer fifth of costa a shining white line runs into apex, enclosing a 

 light brown costal spot, and separated from the vertical white line by a small dot 

 of fawn. The light fawn interspaces are more or less streaked with a light oli- 

 vaceous shade. Cilia light fawn, the lower half preceded by a shining white line 

 which cuts into the cilia. 



Hiudwing: shining fuscous, cilia paler ; underside the same. Underside fore- 

 wing dark fuscous, lighter along costa, with dark dots at end of each vein. 



Two specimens: Hastings, Fla., Feb. 26th, A. J. Brown. 



This species, bomonana and obliquana, are all of" the same general 

 design. The arrangement of spots and the colors are sufficiently 

 different to distinguish them. 



I'halouia carmelaua sp. nov. 



Expanse 11-12.5 mm. 



Head, palpi, and thorax hoary gray; antennae yellowish-gray; abdomen light 

 fuscous; anal tuft and legs bleached straw, latter banded and dusted with 

 blackish-brown. 



Forewing: whitish-gray, finely speckled with black. Some of these black dots 

 are irregularly arranged in lines, one from outer three-fifths of costa to anal angle 

 and one from outer fourth of costa to lower third of termen ; betw'een latter and 

 apex a shorter line from costa. This linear arrangement is not at all constant. 

 There is a shade of pale brown from dorsum at middle to middle of wing. A 

 similar streak crosses veins at end of cell, running into cilia above anal angle.
