This species has been appearing in our collections as conversana 

 Walsingham. The true conversana is close to it but distinct and 

 equal to what Keargott described as wana. G. imitativa is most like 

 lunatana but has termen of fore wing decidedly less slanting.

A somewhat variable species as far as color of hind wings and size 

 are concerned. In some specimens the hind wing is distinctly whitish 

 toward base ; in others it is evenly dark throughout. The aedoeagus 

 is very long and stout as compared with the rest of the male genitalia. 

 The cornuti consist of several deciduous and two slender, straight 

 fixed spines, the latter nearly as long as the aedoeagus. The decid- 

 edly slanting termen of forewing distinguishes it from imitativa and 

 conversana which it most resembles. 



Hind wing with veins 3 and 4 connate. 



Genitalia figured from specimens in National Collection from 

 San Luis Obispo (A. H. Vachell, March, male) and Los Angeles, 

 Calif. ("Coquillet, No. 149," female).
