NORTH AMERICAN LASPEYRESIINAE AND OLETHREUTINAE 65 



by Kearfott as one of the paratypes of his manuscrijit species, 

 '" EnarTTionia handana'''' (see remarks under Grcifliolitha caeruleana^ 

 p. 31) . The above-reared specimens selected from a large series from 

 cones also infested with either L. piperana or H, injectiva. 



I dislike very much to name this form, as I am strongly of the 

 opinion that it represents a hybrid of piperana and injectiva; but as 

 this has not as yet been demonstrated by rearings from known par- 

 ents, there is nothing else to do. 



12. HEDULIA, new genus 



(Figs. 162, 334) 



Genotype. — Hedulia injectiva^ new species. 



Characters as in Grapholitha except: 



Head, palpi, legs, and underside of thorax and abdomen covered 

 with fine rather long hair. 



Fore wing with some fine hair-like scales toward base; termen 

 convex. 



Hind wing with veins 3 and 4 stalked ; inner margin hairy. 



Abdomen of male simple. 



A derivative of the toreuta group of Laspeyresia. The hairy 

 vestiture is unique in the family and reminds of Syimiona in the 

 Tortricidae. Contains only the one North American species. 



HEDULIA INJECTIVA, new species 

 (Figs. 162, 334) 



Similar in pattern to Laspeyresia piperana^ but darker, with white 

 hind wing cilia and bicolored hind wings. Distinguished at once by 

 the hairy vestiture. 



Antenna, palpus, face, head, and thorax black; inner side of pal- 

 pus sordid whitish ocherous. Fore wing blackish fuscous, the ends 

 of the scales tipped with sordid ocherous, giving a dark wood brown 

 color to the naked eye; basal area not appreciably glossy; a some- 

 what irregular and rather obscure metallic band from costa bef9re 

 middle to mid dorsum and widening out a trifle toward dorsum; a 

 similar, but more regular and angulate band from costa beyond 

 middle to tornus, in some specimens broken near middle; another 

 similar bar (or band) along termen to below apex; extreme costal 

 margin whitish ocherous, this pale scaling produced beyond middle 

 into from 4 to 6 geminate marks, from the apical one of which a 

 leaden band continues toward termen terminating close to upper end 

 of terminal metallic bar; extreme terminal margin black; cilia 

 leaden fuscous. Hind wing smoky blackish fuscous, shading to sor- 

 did whitish toward base ; cilia white with a dark basal band. Under 

 side of fore wing with a slight dusting of white near termen, and
