AMERICAN LEPIDOPTERA. 217 



Hab. — Volga, South Dakota. 



Four male examples in good or fair condition, from the late 

 Judge P. C. Truman. The species is most nearly allied to decepta 

 lis, but is slighter and very much lighter in color. The palpi are 

 longer than is usual in the males of this genus, and in that feature 

 resemble Lomanaltes. But they are straightly projected, and the 

 wing form is that which is normal in Bomolocha. 



Scolecocampa atriluna n. sp. — Ground color of head, thorax and pri- 

 maries an even, soft, creamy clay yellow. Palpi brown at the sides, else head 

 and thorax immaculate. Primaries with a round black spot at the base of the 

 cell; a small, puuctiform dot at the place of the orbicular, and a prominent 

 lunate reniform at the end of the cell. A small blackish costal spot indicates the 

 inception of the t. p. line, and a small brownish line on the inner margin sug- 

 gests its end. There is a series of small terminal blackish dots at the ends of the 

 veins. Secondaries more yellowish at base, with a broad, smoky outer margin 

 and a moderate, smoky discal spot. Beneath, more ocher yellow, with an extra 

 median diffuse powdery blackish band, less obvious on secondaries, and a distinct 

 blackish discal spot. Expands 1.40 inches = 35 mm. 



Hab. — Huachuca Mts., Arizona. 



A single female from Dr. Barnes. The species is amply distinct 

 from the common form by the very even coloring of the primaries, 

 which lack all powdering, and by the very distinct sharply defined 

 black reniform. It is quite probable that further material will show 

 that the t. p. line may become complete.

1875, Morr., Ann. Lye. Nat. Hist. N. Y., xi, 104. 



Head moderate in size, closely applied to the head, but hardly 

 retracted ; front full, hardly protuberant, smooth ; eyes naked, large, 

 hemispherical, not protuberant ; tongue weak, not functional, of 

 moderate length or very short; palpi long, oblique, with long scales 

 on the second joint, directed downward and giving it a compressed 

 appearance, terminal joint moderate, slightly drooping; forming 

 with a pointed frontal tuft a snout-like appearance; antenna? in the 

 % with the joints long, with long lateral bristles and small tufts of 

 shorter hair, the anterior angles somewhat marked. The thorax is 

 small, only a little convex ; vestiture scaly, forming no tufts, collar 

 and patagia marked but not relieved ; legs of moderate length, 

 rather stout, unarmed, save for the usual spurs. Abdomen long and 

 stout, reaching to or exceeding the anal angle of the secondaries,
