resemblance to a Megasis and until more material of both sexes is 

 available would seem best referred as above. 



Elasmopalpus melanellus Hist. 



The type, a 9 labelled 'Florida (April)', is in the Hulst Coll. 

 The species is the same as Tlascala finitella Wlk. and Hulst's name 

 sinks. Another similar type from Miami, Fla. (Slosson) is in the 

 Neumoegen Coll. 



Anoristia olivella Hist. 



The type of this species, a 9 , from Needles, Calif., is a fright- 

 fully worn and stained specimen of Ragonotia dotalis Hist, which 

 name has priority. 



Pyla pallidella Dyar. 



The species, as we have long suspected, is a synonym of Lipo- 

 graphis Iconinella Pack. ; it is so placed in the National Museum. 



Melitara junctolineella Hist. 



The name must be restricted to the $ type in the Hulst Coll. 

 from Texas ; the 9 types from Colorado in the Hulst and Neumoegen 

 Collections are probably dent at a Grt. 



YOSEMITIA GRACIELLA Hist. 



In the original description the type locality is stated as Colorado, 

 but the revision gives Texas and the specimen marked 'type' in the 

 Hulst Coll. is labelled 'Blanco Co., Tex.' The localities given in 

 Hulst's paper containing the description of graciella (Ent. Am. III. 

 129) seem to be frequently quite inaccurate so that we see no reason, 

 the specimen agreeing with the description, for not accepting it as a 

 type. 



Yosemitia mysiella Dyar. 



The name must be restricted to the Stockton, Utah specimens 

 which include the type $ ; we doubt if the Arizona specimens (of 

 which we possess several co-types) belong to the same species; the $ 

 antennae of mysiella are strongly ciliate. Pallidipennella Hist., at 

 present placed in the Anerastiinae , falls close to mysiella; the group is 

 a puzzling one and needs careful study to determine the species in- 

 volved.
