MOTHS OF FAMILY WALSHIIDAE — HODGES 307 



Unnamed Species of Aeaea 



The remaining females are those which have not been associated 

 with males. As I have stated previously, at least two of them repre- 

 sent new species, but until reared material with associated adults 

 is available, the best course is to illustrate the genitalia and to give 

 alphabetic denotations to the specimens. Each has approximately 

 the same habitus as A. juvantis except for "d," which is smiilar to 

 A. risor. The specimens will be retained temporarily in the USNM,
