XIII, 160, 1886; (Zalluda), Ento. Am., IJV, 115, 1888. 
Expands, 18 to 22 mm. Palpi white, black at ends ; head, thorax and antenne 
pure white, with some black scales intermixed ; thorax with three black spots poster- 
iorly ; fore wings pure white, more or less heavily mixed with black scales, giving a 
snowy cinereous aspect ; a black costal spot at base; the first line black, broad at 
costa, then constricted nearly or quite separated at middle, then broadening to margin, 
following inner margin to base in a fuscous shade ; outer line white, sinuous, lined 
within with fuscous ; a large, black, costal, apical triangle; black points on either 
side of outer line on inner margin ; a marginal line of black dashes ; fringe white, 
interlined brokenly with black ; hind wings light fuscous, black marginal line ; fringe 
as fore wings ; beneath, fuscous on fore wings and anterior margin of hind wings ; 
fringe as above. Abdomen cinereous, annulate with fuscous. 
Southern States and Texas. October. 
On page 47, roth line from the bottom, there is an important error, 
‘coalescing of 10 and 11,” should be ‘‘8 and 9g.” And on page 45, 
7th line from the top, ‘‘ Oneida /unulalis” should be ‘‘ Yuma adulatalis.” 
Tetralopha enthealis, Hulst, Trans. Am. Ent. Soc., does not belong 
here. The type isa female, and is probably a synonym of Ag/ossa 
domalis, Guen., ,though very decidedly differing in shape of wings from 
all females of that species I have seen. 
It may be that Mr. Walker has described some of our species in the 
British Museum Catalogue. But so far, no way has presented itself by 
which I could make reliable comparison with Walker's types, and no- 
thing can be determined from the descriptions. 
In the introductory part of this article I have shown that in the most 
of respects the E~ipaschiine find correspondences among the Phycitide. 
The principal and almost only material point in which there seemed to 
be a distinction was in the frenulum, which in the Q of the Lpipasch- 
tine is double, while in the Phycitide it is single. I had felt certain that 
even this was not absolute in view of the peculiar formation of the fren- 
ulum in the Q of the PAyctide, but at the time of writing was able to 
give no proof. Among the Phycitide the %\ has the single heavy spine; 
the Q also has one spine but it consists of two, or more generally, 3 or 
4 joined together. ‘This is very evident at the base where the separate 
sockets are easily seen, and there is morever a flatness and waviness of 
the basal portiou to correspond. After the examination of various spe- 
cimens I have at last found an undoubted Q Anerastia /etradella, Zell., 
in which the frenulum is divided to the base, and is therefore double as 
in the Zpipaschiine. 
In addition I have made some comparative observations on the 
females of the Lpepaschiine and Phycitide. So little has been said (if 
anything at all) upon the genitalia of the females in any family that I
