XYLOMANIA (STRETCHIA) ERYTHROLITA Grt. San Diego, Calif. 
DoS OCS Ole airs 
A very variable species. The ground color of primaries may be either 
red-brown (Fig. 1) or pale purplish gray; specimens of the latter color often 
show much dark suffusion in subterminal area, culminating in a form as shown 
at Fig. 6, and which Smith has named Stretchia acutangula. The 9’s are some- 
times (Fig. 8) almost entirely unicolorous purple-blackish. 
9. ANTITYPE UINTARA Sm. San Diego, Calif. ¢. 
We imagine this to be the species described by Smith under the above 
name; we have not seen the type but the specimen agrees well with the descrip- 
tion. 
10. XYLINA (CALOCAMPA) CURVIMACULA Morr. Duncans, Vane. Is. @. 
II. XYLINA MERTENA Sm. Duncans, Vane. Is. 6. 
Agrees with two ¢ Co-types in Coll. Barnes. 
12. GRAPHIPHORA (XYLINA) INNOMINATA Sm. Duncans, Vane. Is. 6. 
13. GRAPHIPHORA FERREALIS Grt. Duncans, Vane. Is. ¢. 
14. CIRPHIS TEXANA Morr.? Brownsville, Tex. 6. 
We refer this species doubtfully to tevana as it has considerable re- 
semblance to phragmatidicola and corresponds exactly with the size (29 mm) 
as given by Morrison. Hampson places texana as a synonym of Borolia ex- 
tincta Gn. (ligata Grt.) but our present species is certainly not extincta as it 
is generically distinct, falling in the genus Cirphis with prothoracic crest and 
strong anal tuft. The pink suffusion of primaries is wanting, the veins are 
more clearly strigate and the secondaries are pure white in the ¢ of the species 
before us. If not texana it is probably unnamed, but until we have seen the 
type of texana we prefer to hold the matter in abeyance. 
15. XYLOMONIA (XYLOMIGES) MUSTELINA Sm. Pullman, Wash. 64. 
From the type locality and agrees with original description. 
16. XYLOMANIA SUBAPICALIS Sm. Duncans, Vane. Is. ¢. 
This is probably a good species and not synonymous with perlubens 
Grt. if Hampson’s figure of the latter is at all correct.
