[April 1S93. 



below the cell before the origin of the first 

 median, the others on the middle of the 

 median interspaces. The secondaries are 

 whitish, semi-diaphanous. The under side 

 of the wing is much as the upper side with 

 the dots on the primaries less distinct. 

 Expanse, 25 mm. 



90. L. ocellata, sp. nov. $ . Palpi pale 

 brown, tipped with orange. Front luteous. 

 Antennae with the culmen whitish, the pec- 

 tinations gray. Thorax vinaceous. Abdo- 

 men brown above. Lower side of body whit- 

 ish. Legs pale fawn marked with light red- 

 dish. Primaries wood-brown with a small 

 black spot below the cell near the base and 

 a large brown spot at the end of the cell, 

 which is accentuated on the lower side by a 

 white semi-circle, and has in it one or two 

 small black marks. Beyond this is a very 

 narrow brown line beginning on the costa 

 three-fourths of the distance from the base 

 curving inwardly regularly to a point below 

 the cell, and then running diagonally to the 

 inner margin at a point one third of the dis- 

 tance from the base. The apex is marked 

 with a subtriangular diffused whitish spot, 

 which is crossed by a subapical series of 

 three black points. The fringes are concolor- 

 ous checked with dark brown. The upper 

 side of the secondaries is pale ochraceous 

 with a submarginal band of fuscous mark- 

 ings. On the under side both wings are very 

 pale buff. Both have a large discal spot at 

 the end of the cell, and both have a sub- 

 marginal band of blackish dots and lines. 

 The fringes are as upon the upper side. 

 Expanse, 28 mm. 



Aroa, Walk. 



91. A. ?tigripicta, sp. nov. $ . Antennae 

 testaceous. Body blackish with the segments 

 of the abdomen marked with whitish. The 

 under side of the body is white. Legs white, 

 the femora and tibiae margined with black. 

 Tarsi ringed with black. Primaries smoky- 

 black crossed near the middle by two curved 



bands of darker black and with some obscure 

 whitish markings near the inner margin. 

 Secondaries white, fuscous at the base, with 

 the outer angle broadly tipped with black and 

 the outer margin spotted with black. On the 

 under side the primaries are whitish at the 

 base and on the inner margin, while the 

 apical half is black. The apex at the tip is 

 slightly paler. The secondaries are as on 

 the upper side. Expanse, 34 mm. 



This species is allied to A. tenninalis.^ 

 Walk., but is very distinct. 



92. A. lata, sp. nov. $. Antennae 

 testaceous. Front white. Palpi white tipped 

 with dark gray. Patagia white, each with a 

 small black spot in the middle. Thorax and 

 abdomen whitish above, white beneath. 

 Primaries white with a double transverse 

 basal line; a dark oval mark in the middle 

 of the cell ; a broad transverse band beyond 

 the end of the cell curved and scalloped out- 

 wardly and inwardly; beyond these a series 

 of moderately large and somewhat diffuse 

 submarginal hastate markings. The margin 

 has a blackish dot at the middle of each inter- 

 space. The secondaries are pure white with 

 faint brownish marks on the margin at the 

 middle of the interspaces. The under side of 

 both wings is white. The primaries have a 

 slight subapical brown shadow upon the 

 costa and a series of brown marginal spots 

 on the interspaces. The secondaries have 

 similar marginal spots, but much smaller and 

 less distinct than on the primaries. Expanse 

 42 mm. 



Liparis, Ochs. 



93. L. (/) muscosa, sp. nov. $ . Antennae 

 testaceous. Palpi and front dark brown. 

 Upper side of thorax and abdomen gray. The 

 abdomen with two black tufts on the dorsal 

 line behind the thorax. Under side of the 

 body paler. Legs whitish, banded with dark 

 brown. Primaries pale greenish-gray with 

 an oblong lunular brown mark at the end of 

 the cell, some brown marks at the base sue-
