 Genus PLAGIOMIMICUS Grote 



There are five species reckoned as belonging to this genus. 

 All of them are southwestern and western forms, except the one 

 we figure.

This moth is quite common in western Pennsylvania. It 

 ranges southward and westward to the Gulf States and Colorado.

 The habitat of this insect, which is the sole representative of 

 its genus, is California. 



Genus NARTHECOPHORA Smith 



This is another genus in which we recognize thus far only 

 one species.

The figure is taken from a specimen determined by the author 

 of the species, and contained in the United States National 

 Museum. 



Genus NEUMCEGENIA Grote 



The only species of this genus was named poetica by Grote. 

 It is a beautiful little moth, the fore wings 

 being bright metallic green, with a golden 

 reflection, the light spot, which is outwardly 

 trifid, and the costa being creamy yellow. 

 The drawing for the annexed cut was made 

 from the type which is preserved at the FlG - 

 Brooklyn Institute. 



Genus PLUSIODONTA Guenee 



The only species of this small genus recognized as found in 

 North America was named compressipalpis by Guenee. Walker 

 renamed it insignis. It is represented on Plate XXVIII, Fig. 6, 

 by a male specimen. The insect is a native of the Atlantic 

 subregion, and is locally very common in western Pennsylvania.
