HOLCOCERA, Clemens. 
This genus approaches Ge/echia, but not so nearly as Anarsia, Parasia, 
&c., the hind wings being sublanceolate, and not emarginate beneath the 
apex, and having a different neuration. Dr. Clemens describes four 
species, only one of which, 4. chalcofrontella, is known to me. Gelechia 
glandulella, Riley, belongs here. The genus is divisible into two branches. 
A. In which the median vein of the hind wings gives off one branch 
before the transverse vein and a furcate branch behind it, and the curved 
apical branch. 
1. 27 chalcofrontella, Clem. Proc. Ent. Soc. Phila., 1863, p. 122. 
The other three species described by Clemens most likely belong to 
this section, as he mentions no other form of neuration. 
-B. In which the median gives off two veins before the transverse one, and 
one, besides the apical, behind if (as if the furcate vein of section A had 
been divided, and one branch transferred before the transverse vein).

 ANARSIA. 
A. Obiqui-strisella. ‘ AN. sp. 
Palpi with the second joint dark brown beneath ; white above and at 
the tip. Third joint dark brown, with a white annulus at the base, and 
another about the middle. Face white. Antennæ with the basal joint 
white, stalk annulate alternately, with dark, greyish-brown and white. 
Thorax and wings white, thickly dusted with pale grey-brown. A dorsal 
brown streak, near the base, points obliquely backwards towards a small 
costal brown spot, and reaches more than half across the wing. An 
oblong, costal, dark brown spot about the apical fourth of the wing, a 
discal, oblong streak opposite the space between the costal spots, and 
another small one near the beginning of the ciliæ, and another large one 
in the apical portion touching the costal margin near the apex. Some- 
times these discal and apical streaks are continuous, forming a streak from 
the middle of the wing to the apex. 
Alar ex. ¥3 inch. Larva unknown. Kentucky. The terminal joint 
of the palpi in this species is not roughened, but the proportions of the
