NO 2239. NEW LEPIDOPTERA FROM MEXICO— DYAR. 371 



Subfamily ScHOENOBiiNAE. 



Genus DISMIDILA Dyar. 



DISMIDILA TOCISTA, new species. 



Close to D. citoca Dyar, of the same size and color. Fore wing with 

 no white on costa ; reniforin with the following orange luniile and 

 two white spots distinct, without succeeding dark shade; inner line 

 black and thickened in the middle. Beneath, gray, the marks in- 

 definitely repeated, without trace of the peculiar whitening of D. 

 atoca. 



Type. — Female, Cat. No. 21350, U.S.N.M. ; Santa Rosa, Vera Cruz, 

 Mexico, August, 1906 (W. Schaus). 



The type of D. atoca is a male and this may be a case of sexual 

 dimorphism. 



Subfamily Epipaschiinae. 



ANARNATULA, new genus. 



Palpi upturned; hind wing with vein 7 anastomosing with vein 

 8; veins 4—5 stalked; fore wing with vein 6 from the cell, 10 from 

 the cell, 4 and 5 separate; palpi with the second joint very long, in 

 the male containing a long pencil of pale hairs. 



Type of the genus. — Anarnatula hyporhoda, new species. 



ANARNATULA HYPORHODA, new species. 



Fore wing brown; a broad white ray along median vein to outer 

 line, spreading and cutting off little brown specks between the veins; 

 two indentations above by the obsolete stigmata, which are marked 

 by brown on the veins; outer line white, angled at vein 5, straight; 

 a broken black terminal line. Hind wing orange red, apex and termi- 

 nal line gray ; fringe white. Expanse, 13 mm. 



Type.— M'aIq, Cat. No. 21351, U.S.N.M., Chiapas, Tabasco, Mexico, 

 May, 1915 (R. Muller). 



Greatly resembles Druce's figure, of Pycnulia sylea Druce,^ but 

 too small {sylea., 16 mm.). Both are males and the present species 

 does not seem to vary in size. I have three females from French 

 Guiana expanding about the same as the male (14 mm.). 



Arnatula suhflavida., which I described from Panama, is still larger 

 (18 mm.). The three forms will be congeneric. 



TAPINOLOPHA, new genus. 



Palpi porrect, thickened in the middle, down-curved at tip, short; 

 fore wing with veins 3 and 4 separate, 6 from the cell Avell below 

 apex, 7-9 stalked, 10 and 11 on the cell ; hind wing with veins 2, 3, 

 and 4 well apart, 5 absent, 7 anastomosing with 8. 



Type of the genus. — Tapinolopha variegata, new species.
