both wings aie unit'oi'mly verv pale fawn 

 profusely irrorated with minute dark scales, 

 'the inner margin of the primaries alone 

 being immaculate and shining. Expanse.

90. T. (?) bilinea, sp. nov. <^ . The first 

 and second joints of the palpi and the entire 

 upper side of the bod_v are dark fawn. The 

 third joints of the palpi, which are very 

 slender and long, are light colored. Under 

 side of thorax and abdomen paler fawn. 

 Legs dark fawn with the tarsi ringed with 

 whitish. The primaries and the secondaries 

 on the upper side are dark fawn, agreeing in 

 color with the upper side of the body. The 

 primaries are crossed b^- an obscure curved 

 sub-basal brown line; parallel to it a median 

 line of similar color; just beyond it at the 

 end of the cell, a small dark brown dot 

 pupiled with white. From the apex to the 

 middle of tlie wing, a heavy dark brown line 

 runs. This is paralleled on the side of the 

 base for two-thirds of its length by a fine 

 limbal line, which is abruptly retracted a 

 short distance below the costa, terminating 

 upon the costa a little beyond the end of the 

 cell. The heavy dark transverse oblique 

 line is continued across the secondaries to 

 the inner margin, as is also the finer inner 

 line which'runs parallel to it. On the under 

 side, the'primaries and the secondaries are 

 obscure fuscous. The primaries have their 

 inner margin shining testaceous. The 

 secondaries on the inner margin are irrorated 

 with pale ashen gray. Both wings have a 

 white discal spot at the end of the cell, fol- 

 lowed by a fine dark brown incomplete and 

 curved transverse median line, beyond which 

 both wings are crossed by a somewhat 

 irregularly curved series of whitish macular 

 markings surrounded by dark fuscous sliad- 

 ings. The margin is defined by minute 

 blackish linear dashes. The fringes are 

 concolorous. Expanse, 35 mm. 



The male of this species is unknown to 

 me. 



RiCL.N. Walk. 



91. R. snbpallesceiis, sp. nov. $. .\llied 

 to R. expiuideiis. Walk. The upper side of 

 the body is dark plumbeous; the lower side, 

 pale fawn with the abdomen tipped with 

 dark plumbeous as on the upper side. The 

 legs are concolorous, with the anterior mar- 

 gins of the tibiae dark. The primaries on 

 the upper side are dark plumbeous. There 

 is a minute white spot in the middle of the 

 cell, and a dark transverse linear spot at its 

 end. The wing is crossed from the apex to 

 the middle of the inner margin by a dark 

 blackish shade, which is interrupted in some 

 specimens where it crosses vein four. Coal- 

 escing with the apical extremity of this dark 

 shade is a semi-circular shade of the same 

 color, which sweeps around from the apex to 

 the marginal extremity of vein four. The 

 marginal area circumscribed by this semi- 

 circular shade is pale plumbeous, accentuated 

 on the side of the base by some small ferru- 

 ginous spots. The dark shade, which crosses 

 the primaries from the apex, is continued 

 across the secondaries to the anal angle, and 

 is marked externally by a few pale cinereous 

 maculations of which one opposite the end of 

 the cell is large and conspicuous. On the 

 under side, the primaries are fuliginous, paler 

 on the margin and toward the base. The 

 secondaries are whitish with the costa and 

 the margin near the outer angle laved with 

 pale fuliginous. Expanse, 40 mm. 



Heterospil,\, Guen. 



92. H. hecate, sp. nov. $. Palpi, front, 

 collar, upper side of thorax and abdomen 

 obscure reddish-brown. Lower side of 

 thorax and abdomen paler, inclining to 

 whitish. Legs concolorous. The primaries 

 on the upper side are obscure reddish-brown, 

 becoming paler towards the outer margin. 

 On the middle of the cell is a small pure 

 white spot. At the end of the cell, is a min- 

 ute black spot surrounded by pale ochraceous
