11S. /. apicata, sp nov. $ . Upper side 

 of body dark brown with the collar and 

 patagia pale brown ; under side of the abdo- 

 men pale luteous; legs pale brown annotated 

 on the tarsi with dark brown. Upper side: 

 Primaries dark brown with a whitish semi- 

 lunate patch on the inner margin near the 

 base. The apex is broadly whitish inter- 

 rupted on the lower edge of this paler area by 

 a dark brown cloud, which is a continuation 

 of an obscure transverse submarginal line. 

 There is a marginal series of minute whitish 

 spots. The fringes are dark brown checked 

 with paler brown. At the end of the cell is 

 a minute blackish discal dot, margined with 

 pale brown. The secondaries are uniformly 

 pale fuliginous with the margins paler. 

 Under side : The ground color of both wings 

 is very pale wood-brown with the cell and 

 middle area of the primaries heavily clouded 

 with fuliginous. There is a blackish discal 

 dot at the end of the cell of both wings, and 

 both wings are crossed by paler and some- 

 what obscure transverse median and trans- 

 verse limbal lines, most distinct upon the 

 secondaries. Expanse, 22 mm. 



119. /. miserata, sp. nov. $. Upper side 

 of body dark brown with the patagia paler; 

 under side of body paler. Upper side : Prim- 

 aries dark brown clouded with numerous 

 obscure transverse fuliginous striae, the 

 outermost forming a distinct zigzag submar- 

 ginal series followed by a marginal line of 

 minute linear patches of raised scales. The 

 apical region is much paler, save where 

 crossed by the dark lines, and at the end of 

 the cell extending upwardly to the costa is a 

 suboval whitish area margined by very 

 narrow dark brown lines and intersected by 

 two similar narrow lines about the middle. 

 The secondaries are uniformly grayish with 

 the margins lighter. Under side : The under 

 side of both primaries and secondaries is pale 

 gray with the costal area of the primaries 

 darker, especially toward the apex. 



$ . The female is marked like the male, 



but is considerably larger and the markings 

 are not quite so distinct. Expanse, $. 28 

 mm. ; $ , 36 mm. 



120. /. circnmdata, sp. nov. J. Collar 

 and upper side of thorax pale reddish-brown ; 

 upper side of abdomen darker brown : lower 

 side of thorax and abdomen pale brown. 

 Upper side : The upper side of the primaries 

 is dark brown, obscurely spotted and clouded 

 with blackish. The outer margin and the 

 inner margin are broadly pale reddish-brown 

 of the same shade as the upper side of the 

 thorax. There are a few obscure whitish 

 dots near the apex, an obscure submarginal 

 series of minute brown dots, and the fringes 

 are dark brown checked with pale reddish- 

 brown. The secondaries on the upper side 

 are pale fulvous. Under side: The wings 

 are marked very much as in /. albibasalis. 

 Expanse, 26 mm. 



121. /. brunneicosta, sp. nov. $. Body 

 and legs pale luteous. Upper side of the 

 primaries is very pale luteous with the costa 

 heavily marked with dark brown, especially 

 at the middle, where the dark brown shade 

 extends inwardly, covering the end of the 

 cell. The outer margins are also clouded 

 with brown and about the middle of the mar- 

 ginal area is a very heavy dark brown spot, 

 margined externally by pale luteous. There 

 are also one or two dark brown subapical 

 marks and obscure transverse median and 

 transverse limbal lines. The secondaries are 

 uniformly very pale yellowish-gray. The 

 under side of both wings is colored like the 

 upper side of the secondaries, save that the 

 brown costal mark on the primaries reappears 

 faintlv upon the lower side. Expanse. 22 mm. 



122. /. albicostata, sp. nov. £. The col- 

 lar and upper side of the thorax are dark 

 brown ; the upper side of the abdomen pale 

 brown; pectus and forelegs dark brown; 

 lower side of thorax and abdomen pale 

 brown. Upper side : The primaries have the 

 inner half broadly rich brown marked with
