THE CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST. 45 
_p. 92, and re-described by Dr. Clemens, Proc. Ent. Soc. Phila., 1863, p. 
216. It does not agree accurately with either of Dr. Clemens’ 
descriptions, but it seems to be a somewhat variable species, though some 
of the most striking marks in my three specimens are not mentioned by 
Dr. Clemens. I therefore retain the above name for the present, at least, 
.as Dr. Clemens gives no measurement for his species, and was unacquainted 
-with its food plant. In the following description I have noted the points 
in which my specimens differ among themselves and from Dr. Clemens 
description. 
Maxillary palpi and basal joint of the labial palpi dark brown; ter- 
“minal joint white, with a dark brown annulus before the middle. (In one 
‘specimen. the labial palpi are entirely white, except the annulus. Dr. 
Clemens’ first description says: “white, with a blackish spot near the 
middle and one near the tip.” His second says: ‘‘Second joint fuscous 
-at its end, third with a broad fuscous ring.”) Antennae brown ; head 
white ; thorax white, narrowly margined near the apex with dark brown, 
-and a dark brown line beginning on the head and extending to the apex 
of the thorax. (Dr. Clemens does not mention this line nor the dark 
margins.) Primaries dark grayish brown. A white streak along the 
dorsal margin from the base to about the middle, where it is confluent 
with the first dorsal oblique streak. (In one specimen it does not attain 
‘the oblique streak. This oblique streak is not mentioned by Clemens, 
who simply says “the basal portion of the inner margin is white.) A 
-small white dorsal streak at the beginning of the ciliae (not mentioned by 
Clemens.) A short white costal streak in the basal portion of-the wing ; 
another about the middle, extending to or crossing the fold and pointing 
towards the second dorsal streak. (Dr. Clemens calls this second costal 
-streak a fascia extending obliquely across the wings and sometimes con- 
“stricted or partially interrupted near the dorsal margin. If sufficiently 
‘interrupted, this would make my second dorsal streak.) Two narrow 
white fasciae in the apical part of the wing, the last one not oblique. (Dr. 
Clemens calls these costal streaks extended to the middle.) All these 
“Streaks are dark margined internally, and the two last named are continued 
into the dorsal ciliae (a mark not mentioned by Clemens.) A fifth white 
Short costal streak at the apex (not mentioned by Clemens, unless this is 
what he means by “ Ciliae—at the tip of the wings white, touched with 
black at the ends.”) Ciliae of the general hue, with a dark brown hinder 
marginal line beyond their middle. Anterior legs dark brown, with yel-
