SINOE, £e/. nov. 
Generic characters as above and awfe v. 4, p. 192. It is perhaps 
necessary here to advise some correspondents that specimens which they 
formerly received from me labelled Siroe ambroseaiella — the name 
formerly attached to them in my cabinet before they were carefully 
examined — belong to a somewhat aberrant species of Æuralis (B. 
matutella, Clem.) and are not congeneric with the species described 
below. 
S. fusco-palidella. WL. sp. 
Pale sordid fuscous ; third joint of the palpi white, with two wide 
dark brown annulations. | Face with faint purplish reflections. On the 
fore wings, just within the basal fourth, is a dark interrupted dorsal streak 
of raised scales, pointing obliquely backwards towards the middle of the 
wing ; behind this streak and just within the dorsal margin, is a minute 
tuft of dark brown raised scales, margined behind by a few whitish scales : 
nearly opposite to this minute spot, but a little behind it, is a somewhat 
larger one similarly margined ; further back, just within the dorsal ciliae, 
is a rather large dark brown patch of raised scales, which is internally 
margined by a dark brown streak of scales not raised, which passes back 
through the middle of the apical part of the wing but does not go to the 
apex ; just beyond this streak is a small oblique costo-apical dark brown 
streak which attains the costal margin close to the apex ; there is a row of 
dark brown spots around the apical margin, and there are three indistinct 
pale brown oblique costal streaks, one before the middle, one about the 
middle, and one just before the ciliae. In some lights these three costal 
streaks or stains are invisible. There is also a small brown spot about 
the middle of the base of the fore wings, and there are also some small 
ones on top of the thorax, two of which are on the posterior margins just 
before the apex. Al. ex. 38 inch. Kentucky. 
TAYGETE, gen. NOV. 
I erect this genus for the species which, as the name indicates, I have 
found it difficult to locate, the species referred to above as G. dificilisella. 
Recognizing its differences from the true Gelechia, I at first (ante v. 4, p.
