species is lacking in siibtrnniiinlis. Alth<nigh \vc have no <J before 

 us we refer the species to Rcnia as the palpi agree exactly in struc- 

 ture and squammation with other 5 's in this genus. 



Renia extremalis sp. nov. (Plate II, fig. 22.) 



2 . Palpi, thorax and primaries ochreous, latter shaded outwardly heavily 

 with smoky-brown ; t. a. line indistinct, black, bent outward below costa, in- 

 curved in subniedian fold ; orbicular a black point surrounded by a slight 

 ochreous scaling; reniform represented by two black vertically placed dots 

 surrounded by indistinct ochreous scaling; a broad dark dilTuse median shade 

 angled outwardly below reniform; t. p. line fine, black, slightly waved, pro- 

 ceeding from a faint dark shade on costa straight across wing ; beyond the t. p. 

 line the subterminal area shows a narrow band of the ground color of wing fol- 

 lowed by a diffuse dark shading the inner margin of which is rigid and very 

 sharply defined, forming one of the most prominent features of the macula- 

 tion ; the dark area extends to the outer margin, being slightly paler outwardly, 

 and largely obscures the s. t. line which is waved, incurved opposite cell and 

 in subniedian fold and shaded outwardly with dark brown, a scries of terminal 

 dark lunules; fringes pale. Secondaries pale ochreous basal half sprinkled 

 with smoky-brown, this area rather sharply defined and bordered outwardly 

 by a broad pale band of the ground color ; beyond this band the outer area is 

 smoky, cut by a pale waved subterminal line ; a terminal broken dark line ; 

 fringes pale. Beneath primaries smoky, shaded with ochreous along costa ; 

 secondaries with basal half much as above, somewhat sprinkled with ochreous 

 and with faint discal dot; outer half paler, sprinkled with dusky scales. Ex- 

 panse, 25 mm. 



//(iZ?i7(7/:— White Mts., Ariz. (Lusk.) i 9. Type, Coll. Barnes. 



On the strength of the porrect palpi with upturned 3rd joint and 

 hairs on upper side of 2nd joint we refer this species to Rcnia. The 

 dark outer area with sharply tlefined inner margin is characteristic. 



Tetanolita? negalis sp. nov. (Plate II, fig. 19.) 



Palpi compressed laterally, sickle-shaped, upturned, third joint long and 

 pointed, squammation smooth, antennae ciliated in the male with tuft of hairs 

 beyond the middle ; fore leg of male with long tibial process and reduced tarsi ; 

 general color light brown washed sHghtly in median area with ochreous ; t. a. 

 line black-brown arising from a small dark patch on costa, straight to cubital 

 vein, rounded outwardly in submedian fold and then slightly outwardly oblique 

 to inner margin; orbicular a small yellow dot, reniform narrow, lunate, yellow, 

 with a central dark shade-line, t. p. line black, irregular, bent outward below 

 costa, angled inwardly opposite reniform, then dentate on the veins and bent 

 inward on the submedian fold, outwardly edged with ochreous, especially notice- 

 able in costal portion ; s. t. line very irregular, prominently ochreous below
