D. versicolorella. N. sp. 
‘Head and palpi ochreous, thickly dusted with brown; a brown 
annulus around the base of the third joint of the palpi, and another before 
the apex. Antennae dark brown, faintly annulate with ochreous, and 
with five or six white annulations in the apical portion. ‘Thorax and 
anterior wings ochreous, thickly dusted with dark brown; a little less 
thickly in the basal fourth of the wing, with a brown streak across the 
base of the wing, and a brown streak extending obliquely from the costa 
about the basal fourth, to the fold, which, however, is scarcely distin- 
guishable from the thickly dusted portion of the wing behind it; no 
brown spot at the apex. Posterior wings pale fuscous : abdomen ochreous, 
the segments not margined with whitish, as in the preceding species. 
Alar ex. +; Of. an inch. Captured in Kentucky in May. 
D. bicosto-maculella. N. sp. 
Head pale yellowish, the vertex dusted with fuscous ; antennae dark 
brown; second joint of the palpi pale yellowish, tipped with brown 
beneath: third joint brown, sprinkled above with pale yellowish : thorax 
and anterior wings blaekish, or very-dark brown, with ochreous and gray 
intermixed, with a small and indistinct ochreous spot on~the costa, near 
the base, and another distinct costalous at the beginning of the ciliae, and 
an opposite dorsal one; ciliae yellowish-ochreous. ‘There are several 
rather undefined irregular blackish spots or patches on the wings, which, 
to the naked eye, appear to form three irregular transverse bands, not very 
definite in outline, one of which adjoins each of the costal ochreous spots, 
whilst the other is between them. <4/ar ex. * inch. Kentucky. 
LD. guerciclia. NN. sp. 
This species is a Depressavia in every respect except that there is a 
small but very distinct tuft of erect scales at the apex of the thorax. 1 have 
but a single specimen, which, however, is in perfect condition, and shows 
no sign of any injury, so that I cannot doubt that the tuft is a normal 
structure. 
Antennae dark brown or rather blackish, annulate with white ; palpi 
iron gray; head silvery, flecked with dark brown or blackish scales ; 
thorax iron gray, the tuft being ochreous ; anterior wings dark iron gray, 
with a distinct small blackish spot on the costa at about the basal fourth, 
and two other smaller ones on the costa, one about the middle, and the 
other at the beginning of the apical ciliae; there are three or four 
similar small ones on the disc; ciliae ochreous ; posterior wings pale
