small, dark brown spots" are difficult to identify, though fairly well marked in 

 one specimen, what is marked, however, are a row of large spots surrounding the 

 apex, and from these extend dark lines along the veins. The spot in middle of 

 wing is on the fold. 



Exp. 11.0-14.5 mm. ; 0.44-0.58 inch.

 bia; Kansas (Onaga); Georgia (Forsyth); Florida (Hastings); 

 Missouri (St. Louis); Louisiana (Vowells' Mills). 



T. orleausella Ch. — Dyar's List, p. 572, No. 6519. —"Straw color or pale 

 yellowish, thickly dusted with fuscous ; a discal fuscous spot about the middle of 

 the wing, and another opposite to it on the dorsal margin ; a row of dark brown 

 spots around the apex, a dark brown spot on the base of the costa and an obscure 

 one at the inner angle; the apical portion of the wing is thickly dusted. An- 

 tennae grayish stramineous; head and palpi sordid stramineous, the outer surface 

 of the palpi brown. Al. ex. | inch." 



Hab. — Louisiana (New Orleans, in November). 



The above is Mr. Chamber's description. The type, in very poor 

 condition, is in the Cambridge Museum collection. Seems to corres- 

 pond in size and form of wings with trimaeulella Ch ; there is a 

 heavy dash in the fold, middle of wing length ; this, no doubt, is 

 the spot referred to by Chambers on the dorsal margin ; the discal 

 spot is smaller and a little nearer the base than the former ; second 

 discal (not mentioned in the description) is distinct and somewhat 

 transverse, along the costal margin are some hamate spots and dots, 

 fuscous in color. Labeled by Chambers. 



T. Nil-ami ii id la Ch. --Dyar's List, p. 573, No. 6528.--" Head sordid yel- 

 lowish; palpi, antennae, thorax and anterior wings straw color; palpi brownish 

 externally; sides of thorax behind the eyes brown ; a row of small brown spots 

 along the fold, another at the end of the disk. Apex dusted with brown. Al. 

 ex. i inch." 



Hab. — Kentucky (in June). 



Have not seen anything to correspond with the above description. 



T. bimaculella Ch.— Dyar's List, p. 571, No. 6496.— Palpi pale yellow, 

 second joint of labials brownish externally, fringed with setae along its entire 

 lower edge. Head yellowish. Antennae pale yellowish, indistinctly annulate 

 with pale fuscous above. Thorax pale yellow, patagia brown. Forewiugs rather 

 narrow, pointed, pale yellow, supra-plical part of wing overlaid with brownish 

 scales, except a stripe which starts broadly on the costa before the apex and ex- 

 tending obliquely to beginning of dorsal cilia where it connects with the yellow 

 subplical part of the wing; on the. fold are three or four dark brown spots which 

 extend to some extent into the pale yellow below the fold ; a less distinct spot at 

 end of cell. Cilia pale yellow, speckled with fuscous scales. Hiudwings nar-
