The description is drawn from the 9 specimen, the $ being 

 rubbed and generally duller in color as far as can be determined. 



Hydriomena irata quaesitata var. nov. (PI. XXI, Fig. 4). 



Dull gray with the bright ruddy shades of the typical form only very 

 faintly indicated in the ante-median area ; lines as in the type form, well defined ; 

 median area broad. Expanse 35 mm.

Spargania bellipicta Warr. (syn. S. illustrata B. & McD.). 



This species, described in 1901 from Golden, Colo. (Nov. Zool. 

 VIII, 468), was overlooked by us in preparing our Check List; from 

 the description there seems little doubt that we redescribed the species 

 under the name illustrata in 1917 (Contr. Ill, (4) p. 230). 



EuPHYIA UNANGULATA Haw. (PI. XXI, Fig. 3). 



We have received two specimens of what seems to be undoubtedly 

 this species from Ramparts, Alaska ; the species is generically distinct 

 from alternata Mull, (sociata Bork.) the areole of the primaries being 

 double whereas in this latter species it is single; it may be separated 

 from intermediata Gn. (lacustrata Auct.) which it agrees with gen- 

 erically by the presence of a dark terminal band on both sides of sec- 

 ondaries, this band in intermediata being broken up into several waved 

 lines. The species must again be included on our lists ; we omitted 

 it from our Check List as the records had evidently been based on 

 specimens of alternata; we figure one of the specimens which is not in 

 the best of condition. 



Xanthorhoe salvata Pears. 



In his description of this supposedly new species, Mr. Pearsall 

 entirely overlooked the fact that the antennal structure of his species 

 agreed with that of the European abrasaria H. S. ; on the strength 

 of this and because the general description pointed strongly in this 

 same direction we recently listed salvata as a race of abrasaria, giving 

 however trilineata Warr. priority. An examination of the type has
