27. Ellopia sotnniaria sp. nov. Expands 44 mm. 



This is a form from X. W. U. S ami Brit. CoUitnl)ia which Packartl 

 (Gcom. Moths p. 494) does not separate from E. /ervidaria. On com- 

 paring 28 specimens o^ /ervidaria with 10 of somniaria I find no inter- 

 grading, and I see no reason whv somniaria should not be considered a 

 good species. It is larger, somewhat more yellowish, the dark speckles 

 larger and more evenly distributed; the cross lines are broader and more 

 distinct, the outer ones broadly edged outwardly and the inner ones in- 

 wardly with orange.

28. Eurymene arrogaria sp. nov. Expands 34 mm. Very much like E. 

 ferviduria H. S. and E. pldotjosarla Guen., but without strialions or cross lines. The 

 outer cross line is faintly suggested by the outer shadings, but so far as suggested is 

 not straight, but rounded outwardly. Basal and median space ochreous fawn, outer 

 space fawn with brown cloud at inner angle. Hind wings ochreous yellow, with 

 dark brown or black cloud at anal angle, this in part being the beginning of the t.p. 

 line. Discal spots prominent on fore wings. Beneath, orange yellow on costal half 

 of fore wing from base to outer third, light yellow on posterior half. Outwardly 

 orange to turn of wing on outer margin. The space at inner ai)gle, the outer third 

 of hind wings, and all fringes vary from flesh color to lilaceous. Basal and median 

 portions of hind wings orange yellow, striated with orange. Discal spot on fore wings 

 somewhat blurred.

29. Rumia ochrearia vnr. unicoloraria var. nov. 



Differs from the type form in being of a clear bright yellow, without 

 any markings whatever. 



30. Angerona crocataria Fab. var. caelaria var. nov. 



This variety differs from the type form in having the brown spots 

 and markings quite obsolete and having the spots near outer angle of a 

 pale white, faintly edged with brown.
