of definite lines on the forewings; occasionally a t. p. line is visible 

 and then it is evenly rounded below costa and not oblique as in fervi- 

 daria H. S. (emargataria Gn.). We figure a $ from Decatur, 111. 

 which shows the t. p. line fairly distinctly. 



GONODONTIS APICIARIA Pack. 



There are apparently two species involved in the types of this 

 species in the Packard Coll. The $ type from Hyde Pk., Boston 

 agrees with the figure in the Monograph (PI. 12, Fig. 9) and will 

 hold the name; 2 2 types from Maine and Salem, Mass. appear to 

 belong to warneri Harv. Apiciaria has a distinctly excavated margin 

 of hind wings in contradistinction to warneri in which it is nearly 

 evenly rounded. 



Euchlaena novellata Hist. (PI. XIV, Figs. 4, 5). 



This species has been placed by Hulst in Dyar's list under Sabu- 

 lodes but we query the correctness of the reference; the types, 1 $ 

 and 1 2 , are stated to be in the Neumoegen and Tepper Coll. A 2 

 type is in the former collection which agrees excellently with the de- 

 scription but we have no record of any type in the Tepper Coll. and 

 doubt if Hulst really had a $ before him; there is another so-called 

 2 type from Prescott, Ariz, in the Hulst Coll. which may or may 

 not have been one of the original specimens ; we think it well to limit 

 the name to the type 2 in the Neumoegen Coll. which proves to be 

 the other sex of what is at present listed as Therina cavillaria Hist, 

 described from a single $ specimen from Arizona, the latter name 

 having priority ; regarding the generic position we are in doubt until 

 a thorough revision of the group has been made but the species 

 strongly suggests Euchlaena sesquilinearia Grt. (PI. XIV, Fig. 3) 

 from which indeed it only differs in its smaller size and lighter color, 

 being freer from speckles ; the faint hair line beyond the t. p. line is 

 quite characteristic of both species which may eventually prove to be 

 seasonal forms; in any case they may be placed next to each other 

 in our lists for the present. We figure a $ and 2 of cavillaria 

 from Palmerlee, Arizona and a typical $ of sesquilinearia from Red- 

 ington, Arizona. 



Euchlaena argillaria Hist. 



The so-called $ type in the Hulst Coll. is spurious, being labelled 

 'Calif.', whereas the description calls for Arizona as type locality; the 

 true type is in the Neumoegen Coll. along with another spurious type
