64 PSYCHE [August 



brown, with many rounded hyaline spots, a few of them confluent, about evenly 

 distributed over the wing, except none in the costal area; surface very plainly sca- 

 brous; venation brown; only a few blackish hairs on wings; discal cell two and one- 

 half times the length of pedicel, first and fifth apicals their width before anastomosis, 

 radius somewhat sinuous near stigma, the thyridial fork of median vein arises some 

 distance down the cross-vein, lower branch of median not disjointed at anastomosis, 

 anal cell rather short; basal cross-vein at forking of median. Hind wings gray hya- 

 line, venation brownish, discal cell twice as long as pedicel, first apical its width back 

 on discal cell, the fifth but little before anastomosis, the fourth broad, but narrov/er 

 than second at base. 



Ex}ianse 30 mm. 



Grand Lake, Newfoundland (Owen Bryant). 



Halesus indistinctus Walk. 



Three specimens, a rare and interesting species. 

 Pkdyccntropus macnlipenms Kolen. 



Several specimens, common in the North. 



Apatania stigmatella Zett. 



Many sjiecimens, a north European species, previously recorded from the Great 

 Slave Lake district of British America. 



Sericostomatidae. 

 Lepidostoma tocjata Hag. 



Four specimens, a common species in the Eastern States. 

 Aleponii/ia n. gen. 



Basal joints of male antennae moderately long and heavy, longer tlian length 

 of vertex, wide a]>art at base, as in Bracliyccnfrus; maxillary palpi of male upcurved 

 and appressed to face, densely clothed with broad scale-like hairs; labial palpi de- 

 pendent, long and slender; venation as figured; in fore w'ings but four (c?) apical 

 cells, fork three being absent, the discal cell closed in both pairs, the anal vein not 

 running into branch of cubital, but connected back to cubitus a long way before the 

 fork; hind wing with but two apical cells, like Acrunoecia. Spurs large and long, 

 1—4—3 (c?); I can see but one sub-apical on hind tibiae, while the two sub-apicals 

 on middle tibiae are very distinct. 



By the distant antennae it is allied to Brachycentrus and others of that group,
