only visible at inner margin ; fringes pale. Beneath creamy slightly sprinkled 

 with smoky and shaded outwardly and apically with pinkish. 



$ . Deeper in color than the $ with maroon shades in the terminal area. 

 Expanse 26 mm. 



Habitat : Mineral King, Tulare Co., Calif. 4 $ , 4 $ . Types, Coll.

Allied to celataria Hist, in type of maculation but more ochreous 

 in color and with the pectinations of the $ antennae considerably short- 

 er; it has rather more dark sprinkling on the primaries but the sec- 

 ondaries, especially in the $ , are lighter in color. 



Itame perornata sp. nov. (PI. II, Fig. 16). 



Male antennae shortly pectinate; head, thorax, and primaries pale purplish 

 shading into reddish purple outwardly, cross lines faint except at costa ; t. a. 

 line oblique and well defined from costa to cell, then angled, faint, and per- 

 pendicular to inner margin ; median line only represented by a very oblique black 

 streak on costa, more oblique than the similar portion of t. a. line ; t. p. line 

 concave and well defined at costa, angled slightly above vein 6, straight for a 

 short distance to below vein 5, then bent gently inward and slightly waved, 

 but very indistinct, to inner margin; indistinct terminal dark dots and smoky 

 fringes ; outer margin of primaries excavate below apex ; secondaries pale ochre- 

 ous, sprinkled with purplish, with traces of a discal dot and median oblique dark 

 line ; outer margin scalloped slightly. Beneath light ochreous sprinkled with pur- 

 plish with markings of upper side faintly repeated. Expanse 20 mm. 



Habitat : Redington, Ariz. 1 $ . Type, Coll. Barnes. 



Belongs in the inqiiinaria group but is smaller than any describ- 

 ed species we know; we have a 2 from the same locality still small- 

 er with similar maculation but pale orange in color which may be 

 the other sex of this species, but on account of the color distinction 

 and lack of a sufficient series to establish the range of variation we 

 do not venture to make it a type. 



Nepytia regulata sp. nov. (PI. II, Fig. 13). 



Head and thorax gray; primaries gray-sprinkled over a paler ground 

 color, giving a general pepper and salt effect; t. a. and t. p. lines subparallel and 

 upright, dark smoky, the former bent slightly outward at costa and somewhat 

 wavy, accentuated on median, cubital and anal veins by short dark dashes on its 

 outer edge ; t. p. line crenulate, scarcely curved at costa, the veins on inner edge 

 streaked with black, edged outwardly with whitish, most prominently at costa; 

 s. t. line very indistinct, indicated by whitish, diffuse, irregular shading; second- 

 aries paler than primaries with the outer line continued obliquely across the
