Head bilobed, shining black, epistoma paler; shield luteous, l)lack in a broad 
posterio-lateral rim and anterior spot. Body normal, the incisures depressed; green,

U. S. National Museum type No. 441 of this species, obtained from 
Beutenmiiller, and a specimen from Ontario (A. W. Hanham) are in the 
U. S. National Museum. This fine species can not easil}^ be mistaken 
for any other Dej)ressaria. It reminds one somewhat of Setiiioscopis 
packardeUa Clemens,^ by the striking curved discal line. 
22. DEPRESSARIA SENICIONELLA, new species. 
Antenna^ ocherous with narrow black anmdations. La])ial palpi light 
ocherous, second joint sprinkled with white and black scales; terminal 
joint with an annulation at base, one round the middle and the extreme 
apex black. Face and tongue very light yellowish, nearly white; head 
and thorax light ocherous. Forewing dark ocherous gray, mottled 
with lighter ocherous and sparsely sprinkled with black and white 
scales. Base of wing concolorous with thorax, light ocherous and 
rather sharply edged outwardly by an area of somewhat darker shade 
than the rest of the wing. In the middle of the cell is a more or less 
conspicuous ))lack dot, often preceded l)y a similar dot nearer costa; 
at the end of the cell is an inconspicuous black dot, and between and 
above these dots is in most specimens a faint dark fuscous area. Along 
costa and round apical edge is a series of more or less pronounced 
blackish dots, and the veins are in most specimens slightly indicated 
by interrupted rows of dark scales, with the intervals rather light 
unspotted ocherous.
