 vein extending on vein 4. Above this a dusky stripe, from the base outwardly 

 to near the margin. Veins and costal edge whitish. Thorax buff. Hind wings 

 white. Beneath whitish. Expanse, 29 mil. 



Hob. Colorado. Coll. of Mr. Tepper. 



A slender species allied to Heliophi'a prcegraeili*, Grote, Bull. 

 IT. S. Gleol. Surv., 3, 119, but differing- by the dusky stripe along the 

 middle of the fore wings and the silvery median vein. 



Hadena tortilis, n. sp.

 recalling that of Hyppa xylinoides. Gray, shaded with black, white, and ochery.

 basal stripe, shaded above with a white ochre-stained line. Inner line with two 

 shorter upper teeth, the lower with its upper edge strongly shaded, and two very 

 large teeth below the median vein. The line is white, with a blackish outer 

 following line. Orbicular pyriform, oblique, white, with a blackish central 

 shade, and black-ringed. Reniform upright, whitish gray, moderate, black- 

 ringed, with faint gray internal annulus. Median space slightly ochery on the. 

 cell beyond the reniform and interiorly over the claviform, which' is narrowly 

 outlined in black. Posterior line dentate, white, with a black internal following 

 line. At the sub-median space it nearly meets the wide tooth of the anterior 

 line, and here is a short connecting black dash. Sub-terminal line a series of

G-otytodes dulciaria, n. sp. 



rj\ The cf 1 antenna?, are plumose, but the branches are shorter than usual. 

 Size of uncanaria. Fore wings uniform olive ochre with designs of silver white. 

 The two median bands meet as usual above internal margin. On the inside, 

 next the median field of the wing, the edge of the band is even, not toothed : the 

 bands approach at median vein; the outer band is projected on median vein. 

 Beyond the outer band the white color extends along the veins, forming a succes- 

 sion of white spots. The sub-terminal band is narrow. The fringes are distinct- 

 ly blackish and white checkered. There is a white elongated patch on the cell
