MACROTHECINAE 
MACROTHECA UNICOLORALIs sp. nov. (PI. III, Fig. 6). 
Head, thorax and primaries dark gray, latter almost unicolorous immacu- 
late, basal 1/3 of wing slightly deeper in color, due to a sprinkling of black 
scales; minute discal dot and slight dark terminal line; fringes concolorous. 
Secondaries whitish slightly tinged with smoky. Beneath paler than above. 
Expanse 10 mm.

SCHOENOBIINAE 
PATISSA SORDIDALIS sp. nov. (Pl. IV, Fig. 4). 
é@. Head, thorax and abdomen pale brownish, latter with a dorsal 
black patch on 3rd segment and lateral dark shading posteriorly; primaries 
pale brownish crossed by two smoky blackish lines, the antemedial rounded 
outwardly, the postmedian in outer fourth of wing, bent slightly at costa, then 
rigid and inwardly oblique; faint dark discal dot and terminal line. Secondaries 
paler than primaries with dark lines continued, the inner one being somewhat 
interrupted. Beneath paler than above with traces of markings of upper side. 
Expanse 17 mm. 
Hasitat. Everglade, Fla. (Apr. 8-15). 1 ¢. Type, Coll. Barnes. 
The species is very distinct from any species of this genus known 
to us. Our specimen is somewhat worn and it is probable that fresh 
specimens will show the banding more clearly. 
PATISSA FLAVIFASCIALIS sp. nov. (Pl. III, Fig. 2). 
8. Head and palpi white, latter marked with light brown outwardly; 
thorax and abdomen white sprinkled with golden-yellow; primaries white, 
sprinkled with brown atoms and crossed by three broad yellow bands; the 
first, at base of wing, is broadest at costa, narrow or broken in central portion, 
outer margin irregular; the second, slightly before middle of wing, is rather 
evenly rounded outwardly, slightly narrowed in cell, bordered on both’ sides 
by brown sprinkling; between bands 1 and 2 is a slight yellowish patch in 
cell overlaid with brown atoms; band 3 is subterminal, broadening towards 
inner margin, upright, bordered with brown dots, connected from the middle 
of its inner margin with a yellow discocellular patch; beyond this band is a 
rather prominent line of ground color, followed by four broad yellow trans- 
verse streaks extending to outer margin between apex of wing and vein 4; 
brown terminal line; fringes white slightly cut by brown. Secondaries similar 
in color to primaries with yellow patch in cell joined to a broad yellow band 
representing band 3 of primaries, three terminal yellow dashes as on primaries ;
