Steganoptycha fasciolana, Clem. 



Six specimens. Wisconsin. 



One of Walker's specimens, under the name Penthina 

 dealbana, belongs to this species, but is not the type. 



? Stegcmoptycha lagopana, Wlsm. 

 Two females. Arizona and Montana. 



These varieties, not impossibly representing a distinct 

 species, differ from S. lagopana in having the whole base 

 of the fore wings darkened so as to include the first 

 dorsal streak in an almost unicolorous basal patch, 

 slightly angulated outwards about the middle ; they 

 have also a dark streak in the cilia beneath the apex of 

 the fore wings, and a dark shade in the cilia at the apex 

 of the hind wings. I have two males and two females 

 from California with these same characters, and have 

 always been inclined to regard them as belonging to a 

 distinct species. 



Without possessing a larger number of specimens it 

 is impossible to determine to what extent of variation 

 the species above mentioned or its near allies are subject.

 Clem., but more distinctly marked, having a reddish
