ea CLARK — NEW SPHINGIDAE 67 
Inner edge of dark marginal area is shallowly S-shaped, curving distally 
as it leaves the inner margin, and then basad. Anal area of dark marginal 
band, bluish with wavy submarginal lines. 
Fore wing beneath: Chrome yellow from base to disc, gradually merging 
into a tawny yellow, and darkening to the marginal band, which latter is 
brown slightly irrorated with white. Band sharply serrate between veins, 
R2 to SM2, and widest between R2 and R3. Three S-shaped, postme- 
dian transverse lines; the inner and middle ones running from costal 
margin, and becoming obscure before reaching inner margin; the outer 
continuing to it, and touching the inner edge of marginal band between 
R2 and R3. Cilia dark. 
Hind wing beneath: Color, lines and marginal band similar to fore 
wing, except that the transverse lines all extend to anal margin. Anal 
area light brown. Cilia dark, light at anal angle. 
Pholus satellitia intermedia subsp. nov.

Al. ant. long., 7, 38 mm.; 9,44 mm. AL. ant. lat., 7,15mm.; 9,

Habitat. — Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas. One male and one female 
from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, in coll. B. Preston Clark, types. One 
male from Greenville, Mississippi, and one female from Brownsville, 
Texas, in coll. Dr. William Barnes, cotypes. 
Thorax and abdomen light brown; thorax with dark median line and 
dark patagia. Fore and hind wings above, light brown with darker 
shading; beneath, dark brown with pink tinge. 
Fore wing above: Subapical patch on costal margin, truncate on SC5. 
Similar patch near hinder angle on inner margin, continued slightly 
beyond M2. Rhombiform median patch on middle of inner margin, con- 
tinued to the base in slightly lighter color. Prominent double stigma on 
cell. A dark shade extends from the median spot of the costal margin to 
a point two thirds the distance from the apex to the hinder angle, is 
angled on M1, and follows it to the distal margin. Vein M1 is noticeably 
pink. From the apex of the rhombiform median patch two parallel lines 
extend to the edge of the dark shade, and continue within it to the costal 
margin. The outer line bears away from the inner one costally of M1. 
A pale wavy lunate line, shaded darkly on both sides, extends from the 
apex to R3 on the distal margin.
