LOXOSTEGE PERGILVALIS Hist. 



The species was described from 3 ? 's from Arizona ; the only 

 ? type from this locality that we could find is in the Hy. Edwards' 

 Coll. In the Hulst Coll. the type is labelled 'Colorado' and in the 

 Neumoegen Coll. the type, while labelled 'Arizona', is a $ . The type 

 therefore must be restricted to the specimen in the Edwards' Coll. 

 The name falls before coloradensis G. & R. as listed by Dyar. 



L. lulualis Hist. 



The species was described from 2 $ 's from Calif, and Anticosti 

 Is. respectively; the California Type is in the Hy. Edwards' Coll. 

 labelled 'Soda Spgs.' and is the same as anartalis Grt. ; the Anticosti 

 type is in the Hulst Coll. and is not exactly the same, lacking the 

 white s. t. banding of primaries and having less black at the base of 

 secondaries; the name should be held to this latter type which is 

 probably at least a good racial form. 



NOCTUELIA BUBUBATTALIS Hist. 



The species described by ourselves as N. tectalis will sink to bubn- 

 battalis; the type from Colorado seems to have rather darker hind 

 wings than our Arizona tectalis so it is possible that two races may 

 be involved but we have seen no Colorado material other than the 

 type. Tectalis was figured in our Contributions Vol. II (6), PI. II, 

 Fig. 10. 



CRAMBINAE 



C. carpenterellus Pack. (PI. XIV, Fig. 18). 



After an examination of the type series of this species we are 

 forced to the conclusion that oslarellus Haim. must become a synonym. 

 Packard's figure of carpenterellus (Rep. Hayd. Sur. PI. I. Fig. 1) is 

 rather crude, the angles in the white streak being too accentuated, 

 due probably to the rubbed condition of Packard's specimens ; the 

 statement that the hind wings are white is also misleading; they are 

 distinctly smoky just as Haimbach claims for oslarellus of which spe- 

 cies we have one of the Co-types before us from the Kearfott Coll. 

 We figure a $ from Denver, Colorado (Oslar). 



EPIPASCHIINAE 



Epipaschia interruptella Rag. (PI. XIV, Fig. 15). 



Apart from the dimensions given the description of this species 

 fits in so exactly with that of dentilineella Hist, that we believe the two
