AMERICAN LEPtDOPTERA. 203 



Paclinobia roOMta n. sp. — Ground color rusty red-brown. Head and 

 thorax immaculate; with thin, divergent, hairy vestiture. Primaries whitish 

 powdered over the costal region to the t. p. line, the ordinary markings well 

 written. Basal line single, brown, clearly marked across the whitish costal 

 region. T. a. line brown, preceded by a white shading, outcurved in the inter- 

 spaces, with strong inward dents on the veins. T. p. line blackish brown, fol- 

 lowed by white scales, feebly crenulate, only a little outcurved over cell, some- 

 what incurved below. S. t. line marked by an irregular s. t. shading against the 

 uniformly paler terminal space. A broken, black terminal line. From the base 

 below median vein runs a narrow yellowish streak broken at the t. a. line, and 

 continued beyond it as a filling to the small, pointed claviform which is diffusely 

 brown bordered. The cell between and before the ordinary spots is deep velvety 

 brown. Orbicular small, irregular, quadrate, white filled, open to the costa, out- 

 lined by the deep brown shade elsewhere around it. Reniform narrow, oblong, 

 irregular, a little constricted, oblique, marked by white scales about a central 

 yellow shade, outlined by dark brown scales. Secondaries smoky over a chrome- 

 yellow base, powdery. Beneath smoky powdered over a yellowish base, the 

 costa tinged with carmine. Both wings with a diffuse, smoky outer band and a 

 somewhat lunate discal spot. Expands 1.68 inches = 42 mm. 



Hab. — Nushagak, Alaska, August 28, '01, McKay, collector. 



One male, in fair condition, from the U. S. National Museum. 

 The antennae are serrated and bristled, and the species thus belongs 

 with carnea, from which it differs in the lack of all gray shadings, 

 in the completely defined median lines, in the white marked differ- 

 ently shaped ordinary spots and in the wing form. 



Carneades rumataiia n. sp. — Head and thorax luteous gray; head 

 paler in front and with a dark interantennal line; collar with a median and ter- 

 minal black Hue, between which a broader brown band crosses the ground ; 

 patagia with a black submargin and a white line just behind the collar, Prima- 

 ries smoky luteous; costal and subcostal veins, but not the costa itself, white to 

 the end of the cell ; median vein white; a bright yellow bar from the claviform 

 to the t. p. line; s. t. line indented on veins 3 and 4 only; apex pale. Basal line 

 marked as an inwardly oblique black bordered yellow line in the submedian 

 interspace only. T. a. line geminate, marked by black dots on the costa, obsolete 

 over the costal area, yellowish, with black margins below the median vein ; only 

 a little outcurved in the submedian interspace; with a longer outcurve below 

 vein 1. The latter is black, with a uarrow yellowish border on each side. T. p. 

 line marked by geminate black spots on the costa, white and abruptly bent over 

 the upper angle of cell, thence a somewhat irregularly lunulate broken black 

 line, a little sinuate, but on the whole, nearly parallel with the outer margin. S. 

 t. line yellow, very distinct, except where it is cut by the pale apical area ; very 

 even except on veins 3 and 4, on which it is moderately indented. A lunate 

 black terminal line. A distinct yellow line at the base of the fuscous fringes. 

 The terminal space is evenly dark except at apex. The s. t. space is paler at the 

 t. p. line, but darkens toward the s. t. line except on veins 3, 4, (5 and 7 which are 

 black lined in a whitish shading. The median space is a little darker in the
