reniform brownish. Sub-terminal line marked with white joints 

 on the veins. Thorax dark-brownish ; Head brighter colored. 

 Abdomen pale fuscous-ochrey. Hind wings dark fuscous, with 

 pale dirty-ochrey fringes. Beneath brighter and paler ochrey, 

 with black discal dot on secondaries and a fuscous extra-mesial 

 line, flexed before anal angle ; fore wings darker, with clouded 

 discal lunule and extra-mesial line- A large Hadeniform species 

 with untufted abdomen and naked eyes. Arizona, Expanse 41 inil. 



CUCULLIA CiTA. n. s. 



Allied to Laetifica. Very pale whitish-gray. Disk of thorax 

 blackish. On fore wings the brown black anal streak commences 

 below vein 2, and runs invariably and somewhat obliquely to 

 submedian fold, along which it is more finely prolonged, entering 

 the sulcation of the transverse posterior line, which is here legi- 

 ble and preceded by a faint white cloud. Short dark marks sur- 

 mount the anal streak on the two superior interspaces on margin. 

 Terminally there are white and fine dentations, enclosing the 

 darkly marked veins. A very fine basal streak joining the deeply 

 dentate and illegibly marked inner median line. Reniform hardly 

 indicated. Hind wings translucent white with soiled veins and 

 smoky edging; fringes white. Collar with a fine mesial line. 

 Abdomen whitish-gray with dark tufts. Beneath hind wings 

 white, fore wings gray. Arizona. Expanse 43 mil. 



Phurys Ovalis. n. s. 



Median lines yellow, ridged, edged outwardly with brown. 

 The ground color is a dusky ochery gray, as compared with Vin- 

 cnluni. Reniform a narrow dark lunule. Veins tending to be 

 darker marked. A series of pale yellowish streaks on the veins 

 connect the outer line with the dentated subterminal line, which 

 is brown, toothed inwardly, the points formed in the veins and 

 again connected by interspaceal streaks with the dark terminal 

 edge of the wing. Thus a series of oval-enclosed spots are 

 formed terminally, which is distinctive of the species, and very 

 neatly marked and curious. Hind wings darker outside of the 

 mesial line, which is lost at costa ; a reflection of the curious 

 terminal markings of primaries is visible. Beneath very strik- 

 ingly colored, being bright ochery, immaculate, with dark leaden- 

 hued fringes. Expanse 33 mil. Arizona. One fresh female ex- 

 ample. 



PSEUDORGYIA RUSSULA. n. S. 



S. Antennae plumose ; no ocelli ; labial palpi prominent, 

 much exceeding the front, with long apical joint ; vestiture hair- 

 like scales ; legs slender, unarmed ; front smooth ; vein 5 nearer 

 4 than 6. The moth has a geometridous look, contradicted by 

 the neuration and the noctuidous palpi and a distant resemblance 

 to some pale or faded Nemeophilae. From Versu'ta (the type of 

 which I have examined) it differs in color. Pale, faded ochrey; 

 the primaries with a slight reddish tinge and no marks except the
