wings.' Hindwings fuscous, somewhat iridescent. Head and antennae dark fus- 

 cous." 

 Exp 7.0 mm.; 0.28 inch. 



Ha b. — Labrador. 



I have seen the type in the collection at the Academy of Natural 

 Sciences, Philadelphia, and have nothing to add to the description 

 given by Dr. Clemens, except that the antenna? are closely approxi- 

 mate at their insertion between the eyes, which is not the case in 

 aureovirens. 



I. aiireovireil* n. sp. — Head sordid white, a little more dusky on lower 

 part of face. Maxillary palpi fuscous, labials rather short, drooping, silvery 

 white, faintly dusted with fuscous. Antennae fuscous. Thorax golden hrown. 

 Forewings elongate, ovate-lanceolate, golden brown, with feeble greenish reflec- 

 tion ; a white fascia, rather narrow and of equal width, at one-third, at right 

 angle to the dorsal margin and terminating in a point on the costa. an elongate 

 triangular spot on the costa at two-thirds and opposite to a similar though more 

 elongate spot on the dorsal margin, the apices of these two spots almost meet; be- 

 tween these spots and the apex is an irregular spot in the middle of the wing; 

 these spots like the fascia white. Cilia fuscous in basal part becoming silvery 

 gray towards their free margin. Hindwings ovate-lanceolate, narrower than the 

 forewings, fuscous; cilia concolorous, over 1. Underside of wings fuscous, those 

 of forewings with some metallic lustre, hindwings paler. Legs grayish fuscous, 

 with some metallic lustre, hind tibiae not rough haired. 



Exp. 6.5 mm. ; 0.26 inch. 



Hab. — Pennsylvania (Hazleton). 



A single specimen in my collection, taken on the wing in June, 

 1899. It is minus abdomen. Very close to and congeneric with 

 the preceding species, but from which it is sufficiently distinguished 

 by the characters noted. 



6REYA Busck. 

 Proc. Ent. Soc. Wash., Vol. V, p. 194. 



Differs from Incurvaria only in venation. Forewings with 11 

 veins, vein 10 absent, all separated. Hindwings as wide as fore- 

 wings, all veins present, free. 



The three species included in this genus by Mr. Busck may be 



separated as follows : 



Wings unicolorous, grayish brown hum i I i*. 



Not unicolorous, ground color whitish or yellowish white. 



Spotted with fuscous salenobiella. 



With 18-20 dark brown spots puuclilerella. 



I. hiimilis Wish. — Dyar's List, p. 569, No. 6479.— '' Of uniform, grayish 

 brown color, hindwings slightly darker than the forewings; legs scarcely paler." 

 Exp. 13.0-14.0 mm. ; 0.52-0.56 inch.
