 6.— Oncocnemis CHANDLERI. 



Oncocnemis chandleri Grote, RuU. Buff. Soc. Nat. Sci., i, 107, 142, plate 3, fig. 9. 

 Oneocnemis chandleri var. riparia Morr., Can. Ent., vii, 213. 

 Oncocnemis chandleri Grote, Bull. Buff. Soc. Nat. Sci., iii, 87. 



^rt&rtrtt— Colorado (Mr. Theo. L, Mead, i^o. 27, August 31) ; Nevada 

 (Mr. Hy. Edwards, No. 2739); Buffalo, N. Y. (Miss Mary Walker); 

 Long Island (Mr. F. W. Tepper). This species has an extended range. 

 My original figure represents a strougly-marked specimen. Eastern 

 examples have less black on primaries {riparia), but there is hardly room 

 for a varietal term. 



7.— Oncocnemis meadiana. 



Oncocnemis meadiana Morrison, Proc. Acad. Nat. Sci. Phil., 1875, 60. 



Habitat— ColoYSido (Mr. Theo. L. Mead, No. 47, taken August 18). I 

 have not seen this species. Its description is subsequent to that of 0. 

 occata, which this somewhat resembles. 



8. — Oncocnemis occata. 



Cleophana occata Grote, Trans. Am. Ent. Soc, 5, 114. 



Oncocnemis occata Grote, Bull. Buff. Soc. Nat. Sci., 3, 77, 87, plate 2, fig. 6.

 487) ; California (Mr. Hy. Edwards, No. 4473).

Homohadena atricollaris Harvey, Bull. Buff. Soc. Nat. Sci., ii, 273. 



Copihadena atricollaris Morrison, Can. Ent., vii, 91. 



Oncocnemis atricollaris Harvey, Bull. Buff". Soc. Nat. Sci., iii, 73. 



mihitat— Texas (Mr. Belfrage, No. 92, March 12). 

 The long claviform (recalling that of 0. chandleri) is visible below 

 the median longitudinal stripe. 



11.— Oncocnemis oblita u. s. 



Fore tibiae with a short claw. Fore wings hoary gray, with pale brown 

 shades on disk across the reniform and on submedian interspace. Lines 

 obliterate. Orbicularelongate, with fine white auuulus. Eeniform dark, 

 narrow and lunate above, below joined to a white patch on median 

 vein, bordered with dark scales above and stretching backward so that 

 the whole spot is L-shaped. Claviform curved, very long, reaching to 

 the t. p. line, bordered with white, wide and prominent. T. p. line 

 barely indicated by a gray shade, produced opposite the cell, curved 

 inwardly below the median vein. Subterminal line composed of black- 

 ish spots in a whitish internervular shade, situate very near the margin.
