Hapsitat. Silverton, Colo. (Aug. 1-7) (10,000 ft.) 1 9. Type, Coll. Barnes. 
The species is close to ephippialis Zett. of which we have a pair 
from Dovrefeld, Norway, before us. It is deeper in color, especially 
the underside; the t. p. line is less squarely exserted and the fringes 
of secondaries are smoky, not whitish as in the European species. 
Potrinata. Gen. nov. (Type Polingia quaestoralis). 
Antennae in ¢ very lengthily ciliate; labial palpi porrect, 3rd joint straight, 
long, pointed, clothed with hair; 2nd joint fringed beneath with long rough 
hair, maxillary palpi tufted at extremity with long hair; head with long tufts 
of hair at base of antennae; front with strong conical protuberance, sharply 
pointed; primaries with veins 3, 4, 5 well separated, 7 curved and approximate 
to 8 at base; mid-tibiae slightly haired. 
P. QUAESTORALIS sp. noy. (PI. I, Fig. 19). 
Palpi, head, thorax and abdomen black, former intermixed with pale och- 
reous; primaries pale ochreous shaded costally and basally with black, the 
area to t. p. line sprinkled rather heavily with white scaling, giving a slight 
bluish tinge; t. a. line black, obscure, outwardly rounded; t. p. line hardly 
indicated except by a pale ochreous band that sharply defines the darker me- 
dian area, parallel to outer margin from inner margin to vein 5, then rounded 
inwardly to costa; orbicular and reniform prominent, black, former oval, hori- 
zontal, latter lunate, vertical; a smoky patch on costa before apex continued 
faintly across wing parallel to outer margin; fringes smoky cut by a paler line; 
secondaries blackish crossed by a faint paler subterminal band broadening to- 
wards costa; outer margin narrowly pale ochreous; dark terminal line; fringes 
white. Beneath basal 24 of both wings to t. p. line blackish; outer portion pale 
ochreous; cell of primaries shaded with ochreous containing orbicular and 
reniform as on upper side; dark costal shade before apex; fringes as above. 
Expanse I9 mm. 
Hasitat. So. Arizona (Poling). 1 ¢. Type, Coll. Barnes. 
The genus is related to Titanio, differs however among other 
things in the strongly conical front and venation. 
CHRISMANIA Gen. noy. (Type Chrismania pictipennalis). 
Antennae of ¢ shortly ciliate; labial palpi porrect, 3rd joint concealed in 
long hair; 2nd joint roughly clothed beneath with long hair, maxillary palpi 
short, dilated slightly at extremity with scales; front with a long truncate 
prominence, the lower edge of which is concave in front with slight lateral 
points; mid-tibiae shortly haired; primaries with vein 7 straight and well re- 
moved from 8.
