NORTH AMERICAN LASPEYRESIINAE AND OLETHREUTINAE 105 



There are a couple of cotypes of this species in the National Col- 

 lection. Nothing else that I have seen exactly matches it. Of the 

 specimens in the Kearfott collection imder the name, two females 

 from New Jersey and Arkansas are possibly it. They have the hind 

 wung cilia much paler than those of the cotypes. There is also a male 

 in the National Collection from Hessville, Indiana (A. Kwiat, 

 •'V-3 — 14") which may be a variety. The genitalia are very like 

 those of conditana^ but the pattern is more that of infuscata. These 

 differences may not be significant as conditana is probably as vari- 

 able as antiqiiana. Both conditana and infuscata are without cor- 

 nuti and have the aedoeagus extended at apex into a thin chitinous 

 tongue. Both also lack the hair pencile on male hind tibia. 



Male genitalia figured from cotype. 



Alar expanse. — 10-12 mm. 



Type. — In British Museum. 



Type locality. — Mendocino County, Calif.

Closest to conditana Walsingham, but with termen of fore wing 

 less slanting and with stouter genitalia. The pattern is also more 

 like that of a suffused, brownish antiquana. 



There are two male paratypes from Ithaca, N. Y., in the collec- 

 tion at Cornell University. I do not know the female. In the Ca- 

 nadian National Collection there are also a couple of specimens that 

 I take to be this species. They differ somewhat in pattern, being less 

 entirely suffused and having more black dusting on median band of 

 fore wing; but the genitalia agree with those of infuscata. They 

 may represent a distinct race but at this time I do not feel justified in 

 naming them as such. 



Male genitalia is figured from type. 



Alar expanse. — 17-20 mm. 



Type. — In National Collection. 



Type locality. — Forest Glen, Md.
