indistinct whitish spots on middle of the wing; another spot 

 nearer base just over cell ; all these spots are obscure, as they are 

 of the same hue as the dusting of the wing. 



Female — Expands i^ inches. 



Upper side rather less bright, the spots yellow-white ; beneath, 

 the fulvous on anterior part of primaries is dull, and does not 

 reach costal margin, which is dark, or blackish-brown, dusted with 

 gray ; the whole of inner margin to cell and to hind margin is black- 

 ish-brown ; apex same, lightly dusted v^^ith gray ; the spots white 

 next costa, the rest yellowish and well defined. Secondaries as in 

 the male, but the ground is blacker, and the whitish patches more 

 distinct, forming a row bent at right-angles at outer angle of the 

 wing; the inner patches form a similar bent line. 



From 3 S and i § in my collection and that of Mr. Neumoe- 

 gen, all taken at Mt. Graham, Arizona. The species is allied 

 to Nanno and Aenus.

 COLLECTION. 



A. R. Gkote. 



NONAGRIA Permagna. n. S. 



? . A very large form, tke largest known to me, and with 

 the proportions of a small Sphinx, the resemblance heightened 

 by the long abdomen, with the curious genitalia exposed beneath. 

 Differs from all Guenee's descriptions in this genus and darker in 

 tint than my Oblonga. The entire insect is of an obscure reddish- 

 ochrey, concolorous. The markings are extremely few. On fore 

 wings merely four to five black points of the transverse posterior 

 line are visible towards the centre of the wing, and there is a 

 terminal series of minute black points. There is a very sparse 

 sprinkling of dark scales on terminal field, costal region and along 

 sub-median interspace, only visible under a lens. Hin5 wings a 

 little more reddish centrally. Beneath small discal spots and a 

 common extra mesial shade-band, broadest on fore wings, which 

 are clouded sub-terminally with fuscous. Indian River, Florida. 

 Expanse 98 mil. LengtJi of body 34 mil. 



Ypsia /Eruginosa. Guen. 



I regard this as simply a fresh Undularis, just as Carissitna is 

 a pseudo variety, all fresh Cara, having a powdering of green 

 scales, as indeed, has Guenee's type, and all Hemaris Fnniosa of 

 Strecher are fresh Hemaris Tenuis of Grote, with the fine scales 

 adherent on the glassy fields which are to fall with the first quiver 

 of the wings. 



T/Eniocampa Perforata, n. s. 



6 ? . Of a peculiar greyish-fuscous or stone color, and allied 

 to the Californian Riifnla. The sub-terminal line is accented by
