Parorgyia manto Strecker, Lep. Rhop. Het. Supp. 3, p. 29 (1900).

Olene interposita Barnes & McDunnough, (nec Dyar) Psyche XVIII, 158, Pl.

“Male head and body brownish gray, paler beneath. Primaries rich chest- 
nut brown, a trilobed narrow white subbasal line. An irregular black t. a. line. 
A black t. p. line curved irregularly inwardly between veins 1 and 4, heaviest 
from vein 4 to costa. A large kidney-shaped discal spot surrounded by a white 
line, from this to the costa between the t. a. and t. p. lines white sprinkled with 
black; on the inner margin between these lines some white scales. A sinuate 
white submarginal line exterior to which the wing is hoary. Fringe brown, 
paler at terminations of veins. Secondaries dark brown. Fringe paler. Under 
surface rather pale smoky brown crossed by a regular diffuse mesial shade. 
Distinct discal lines on all wings, those of primaries joined exteriorly by a pale 
spot. Fringes as above. 
Expands 11/4 inches. 
Type Loc. One male, Stewart Co., Georgia, A. W. Latimer. 
All the markings on this species are bright and sharply defined.” Strecker. 
The larva apparently agrees with that of montana Beut.; it feeds 
on various species of pine. The species is probably double-brooded.

(b) O. MANTO INTERPOsITA Dyar. 
O. interposita Dyar, Proc. Wash. Ent. Soc., XIII, 18 (1911). 
“Similar to manto Strecker, but more uniformly brown. Fore wing suf- 
fused with brown, the lines black, distinct, irregularly crenulate and rather 
broad. A white cloud in the discal area, defining the brown-filled oblique reni- 
form; subterminal line pale, waved, followed by a grayer terminal area. In the 
female the median space is largely gray. In manto the terminal space is nearly 
clear gray to the margin and a narrow wavy white line crosses the basal space. 
The discal region lines and brown ground are very similar in the two forms.”
