Hoinohadena figurata Haivej\ 

 1875, Harv. Can. Eut., vii, 117, Honiohadona. 



"The body vestiture is scaly, mixed slightly with hairs. The size is 

 that of induta. The color is more grayish than usual, and the basal 

 streak is wanting in the specimen. The uuiformly dark griseous pri- 

 maries have the median lines alone visible; these are narrow, black, 

 approximate, of the usual gothic shape, fused by a black dash below 

 median vein. A series of terminal narrow black streaks. Fringes 

 long, silky gray. Hind wings almost uniformly fuscous with whitish 

 fringes, beneath paler with traces of a transverse line and a discal dot. 

 Fore wings fuscous, with an outer line. Thorax and head like fore 

 wings in color." 



Expands 30 millimetres. 



Habitat.— Nevada; Mr. Hy. Edwards, No. 2745. 



Unknown to me in nature. 



Homohadena chorda Grt. 

 1880, Grt. Cau. Ent., xii, 256, Ilomohadena. 



General color of thorax and primaries a warm brownish gray or fus- 

 cous. Head white, with a black line between the antennne. T. a. line 

 broad black, outwardly oblique, slightly irregular. T. p. line narrower, 

 single, black, not much outcurved over cell, thence inwardly oblique, a 

 little irregular. A broad, diffuse pale gray shade crosses the wing over 

 the t. p. line, darkening outwardly very gradually to the fuscous termi- 

 nal space. S. t. line sometimes barely traceable, sometimes preceded 

 by a diffuse black shading. A A^ague median shade marked by a costal 

 spot and scarcely definable below this. Ordinary spots obsolete, or the 

 reniform only vague, small ami pale. Secondaries whitish with soiled 

 veins and a smoky outer border. Beneath gray, powdery, darkening 

 outwardly, a common extra discal line. 



Expands 1.25 inches=3l millimetres. 



Habitat. — Colorado; Sierra Nevada, California. 



A single male from Mr. Edwards's collection is before me. It differs 

 from the Colorado specimen described by IVLr. Grote, by the greater 

 obsolescence of the markings; the reniform, median shade, and s. t. line 

 being almost entirely obsolete, while in the description they seem to be 

 fairly evident, if not distinct. The white head with the broad black 

 interantennal line is distinctive and renders the species easily recogniz- 

 able. The genitalia of the male resemble those of induta most nearly, 

 the clasper being apparently a little shorter, broader, and the tip a little 

 more drawn out. The harpes differ very little. 



Homohadena epipaschia Grt. 

 1883, Grt. Proc. Kans. A. Sci., viir, 49, Romohadena. 

 " This singular species has the look of one of the EpipascMce. Fore 

 wings clayey-gray, much shaded with black; lines black, single; t. a.
