short for a true Gelechia) of the general hue, with a narrow and indistinct 
annulus of yellowish-ochreous at the base of each jomt, and the terminal 
joint also yellowish-ochreous. Thorax and primaries of the general hue, 
(under the lens minutely sprinkled with whitish). An indistinct pale 
yellowish-ochreous streak on each shoulder, a small patch of the same 
hue about the middle of the wings, and a costal streak of the same at the 
beginning of the ciliæ, and an opposite dorsal one. Ciliæ a little paler 
or more purplish than the general hue, with a hinder marginal line of the 
general hue at the base. Alar ex. 36 inch. Kentucky. : 
The larva is at first white, afterwards becoming pale green, with the, 
head brown. It resides in a web on the under side of leaves of the black 
Oak ( Quercus tinctoria). Imago in July.

(Taken under the gas-light; the annulations of the palpi, if there are 
any, are obliterated by burning). Head shining, pale yellowish ; antennæ 
dark brown (under the lens dusted with whitish and pale ochreous). 
Primaries and thorax dark brown A short distinct ochreous-yellow 
oblique costal streak about the basal quarter, pointing towards a small 
ochreous-yellow raised tuft just within the middle of the dorsal margin ; 
between this tuft and the costa, but nearest to the costa, is an indistinct 
ochreous-yellow patch ; on the disc (one at the end of the disc, the other 
before it) are two minufe ochreous yellow tufts. An ochreous-yellow 
streak at the base of the costal ciliæ, and another opposite it at the baser 
of the dorsal ciliæ; nearly meeting in the middle of the wing. A row of 
minute ochreous-yellow tufts around the apex at the base. The tufts 
and spots are all pale ochreous yellow. A/ar ex. 34 inch. Kentucky:

Ochreous and fuscous, mixed in nearly equal quantities, the ochreous 
slightly prevailing: a small fuscous.patch about the middle of the pri- 
maries, and a still smaller one about the end of the disc ; last joint of the

This species can only be included in Gelechia by the most indefinite 
extension of the genus. Nevertheless, I am satisñed that it 1s more

than in Zzagora. ‘The terminal joint of the palpi is little more than half 
as long as the second, which is clavate, and both joints are clothed with 
loose scales. The disc of the hind wings is wide and unclosed. There
