line, is the most conspicuous feature. Basal line geminate, irregular, as a whole 

 upright or even a little oblique inwardly; the included shade yellowish, outer 

 defining line most obvious, diffuse. T. p. line geminate, inner line luuulate, in- 

 cluded space yellowish ; a diffuse shading over the entire line breaks up this in- 

 cluded space into yellowish lunules; in course the line is evenly outcurved over 

 the cell and a little incurved below it. Median line geminate, smoky, included 

 space paler, curved over the reuiform and as a whole intermediate in course be- 

 tween the ordinary lines. S. t. line yellowish, incurved in the interspaces, out- 

 wardly toothed on the veins, preceded by a smoky shade line. Outer margin 

 indented on the veins, rounded over the interspaces. A smoky terminal line 

 follows the margin, and running in a little on the veins meets the teeth from the 

 s. t. line, the terminal space being thus divided into a series of smoky circles. 

 The tendency is to a somewhat darker, more bluish tinge in the s. t. space; but 

 this is not a prominent or even a constant feature. Orbicular a smoky, round 

 spot of moderate size in a yellowish areole. Reniform a large, irregular, inde- 

 fined smoky blotch, followed by a yellowish shading. Secondaries with the 

 maculation bands and lines of the primaries continued across them, but some- 

 what less obviously. The terminal space is broader and the division is into ovals 

 rather than circles. There is no discal spot. The fringes are long, follow the 

 outer margin and are narrowly cut with pale opposite the veins. Beneath, yel- 

 lowish to dark smoky, primaries with a smoky extra median line followed by a 

 dark shade. Secondaries with a dusky median band and an irregular s. t. shade, 

 diffuse inwardly, outwardly more or less defined by a yellowish shading. Ex- 

 pands 1.08-1.16 inches = 27-29 mm. 



Hab. — Arizona. 



One male and two females from the Graef, Hulst and Neumoegen 

 collections, respectively- The species resemhles clientis in size and 

 in the apical blackish spot. It is narrower winged, however, with 

 less produced apices of primaries, and is much paler, more powdery, 

 with more diffuse maculation. The marking of the terminal space 

 is characteristic in the new species, though indications of it may be 

 made out in clientis. 



Bumolocha atomaria n. sp. — Head and thorax dusty gray-brown, im- 

 maculate. Primaries gray, shaded and powdered with smoky brown, without 

 contrasting maculation. From the base to the t. p. line the color is rather evenly 

 smoky brown, except sometimes along costa where it may be gray. T. a. line a 

 vaguely deeper brown shade, more or less obviously outbent about the middle. 

 T. p. line a narrow brown band, almost even in course, without teeth or angula- 

 tions. Beyond this line is the palest part of the wing, shading gradually to the 

 s. t. line, which consists of a series of small, blackish dots followed by pale scales; 

 in course it is about parallel with the outer margin. Terminal space paler beyond 

 the s. t. line, darkening to the ground before the margin, except that the apex is 

 left pale. There is a narrow, chestnut brown terminal line, and the fringes are 

 dark. No trace of ordinary spots. Secondaries dusty yellowish gray, the fringes 

 darker. Beneath powdery ; primaries smoky. Bxpands 1.12-1.20 inches = 28- 

 30 mm.
