245 



rather shiny whitish, heavily peppered with rather darker grayish dots, othewise 

 immaculate. Expanse 36 mm. 



Habitat: Kaslo, B. C. (Aug. 15). 1 $, 1 ?. Types, Coll. Barnes. 



Very closely allied to dejecta Hulst and purpuraria B. & McD. but 

 generally duller in color with the cross lines rather more irregular and 

 angled. 



Cleora ocularia sp. nov. (PI. XXV, Fig. 10). 



Thorax gray with a dark transverse line across collar; primaries light 

 whitish gray, peppered with blackish and shaded with light brown; t. a. line 

 marked by a geminate smoky oblique spot on costa, a black dot on cubital vein 

 and an oblique black dash above inner margin, as indicated its course would be 

 strongly bent out at costa and inwardly oblique to inner margin near base of 

 wing; median shade starting from an oblique blackish patch on costa, well 

 rounded below costa and then inwardly oblique and close to t. p. line to inner 

 margin, emphasized by a strong black spot on cubital vein and preceded at end 

 of cell by a lunate smoky discal dash the ends of which touch the curves of 

 the line, enclosing an oval white patch of ground-color resembling an ocellus ; 

 t. p. line emphasized by black dots, sinuate, with a rather strong incurve in the 

 submedian fold, followed by a faint brownish shade ; s. t. line white, dentate, 

 preceded and followed by smoky shading; strong terminal black dots and check- 

 ered fringes. Secondaries of same color as primaries ; a dark obscure median 

 shade, a narrow discal streak, a rather distinct t. p. line, dotted on veins with 

 black, bent below costa and then rather straight ; subterminal and terminal areas 

 as on primaries but s. t. line less dentate. Beneath primaries creamy, shaded 

 with smoky, leaving a pale apical patch, costa spotted with ochreous and black, a 

 large smoky discal lunule, fringes checkered in apical portion ; secondaries paler 

 with small discal streak ; terminal dark line on both wings. Expanse 33 mm. 



Habitat: Colfax, Placer Co., Calif. (May); Sonoma Co., Calif. 

 2 $ . Types, Coll. Barnes. 



The species is allied to pexata Swett but has less dentate t. p. 

 line and shorter pectinations in the $ antennae ; we can also see no 

 hair pencil on the hind-tibiae. 



Aethaloptera anticaria fumata var. nov. (PI. XXIII, Fig. 11). 



We have already pointed out (Cont. II, p. 211, 1914) that the 

 name anticaria Wlk. should be used for the common Eastern species 

 generally listed as intertexta Wlk. or intextata Wlk. (PI. XXIII, Fig. 

 12) ; the race from Kaslo, B. C. differs from the Eastern nimotypical 

 form in being evenly suffused with smoky-brown with the lines more 

 or less obsolescent, the primaries showing however a very distinct black 

 discal dot. We propose the name fumata for this race, our types 

 being 6 $ 's from Kaslo, B. C. captured on various dates in April and 

 the beginning of May.
