dark band. Secondaries pale, somewhat smoky outwardly ; fringes wdiite with 

 smoky subbasal line. Beneath pale smoky, shiny, immaculate. Expanse, 

 17-19 mm.

 9 ? 9 . Types, Coll. Barnes. 



Dr. Dyar, w ho has examined this species, pronounces it to be new ; 

 the pale color and diffuse black anteinedian shade line crossing the 

 wing should serve to separate it from the other species.

Primaries purplish-brown, shaded in the outer half of the median area 

 with white ; a faint black basal dash, largely hidden by the dark scaling ; ante-

 narrows toward inner margin ; orbicular and claviform indistinct, concealed by 

 the dark scaling, represented by slight black dashes; reniform a diffuse dark 

 shade of indefinite outline : postmedial line pale, slightly angled below costa 

 and rounded opposite cell, thence oblique to inner margin, preceded in the me- 

 dian area by a broad diffuse whitish shade ; terminal area beyond the pale line 

 deep purple-brown, sometimes crossed close to outer margin by a pale, rather 

 broad subterminal line, bent inwards opposite cell ; a terminal row of black 

 dots; fringes suffused with smoky and cut by a darker subbasal line: secon-

CHRYSAUGINAE 



Ch.\linitis virid.\lis sp. nov. ( Plate II, fig. 8.) 



Palpi and thorax pale ochreous; primaries pale ochreous, suffused at base 

 and along outer margin with green ; from the middle of costa to middle of 

 inner margin an oblique white line crosses the wing followed by a second post- 

 median white line, outcurved below costa, incurved slightly at inner margin ; 

 the enclosed space between the two lines is olive green ; fringes shaded with 

 olive-green in basal half ; secondaries pale smoky. Beneath primaries smoky 

 with a pale mark on costa 2/3 from base, secondaries crossed by a pale curved 

 median band, the portion of wing enclosed by the band being somewhat darker 

 than the outer half; fringes pale. Expanse, 20 mm.
