9. PETROVA ZOZANA (Kearfott). 



Evetria zozana Keakfott, Trans. Amer. Ent Soc, vol. 33, 1907, p. 2. — ^Barnes 



and McDuNKOuGH, Check List Lepid. Bor. Amer., no 6769, 1917. 

 Evetria matutina Metrick, Ent. Mo. Mag., voL 48, 1912, p. 35. 



I have seen only the type (a, female) of this species. It is close 

 to edimoidana in pattern and markings, but appears distinct. 

 Alar expanse. — 20 mm. 

 Type. — In American Museum. 

 Type locality. — Placer County, California. 

 Food plant. — Unknown. 



10. PETROVA MONOPHYLLIANA (Kearfott). 



Evetria monopliylliana Keakfott, Trans. Amer. Ent. Soc, vol. 33, 1907, p. 1. — 

 Barnes and McDxjnnough, Check List Lepid. Bor. Amer., no. 6767, 1917. 



None of Kearfott's male cotypes in the National Collection or 

 the American Museum has an abdomen, so genitalia could not be 

 studied. I have little hesitation, however, in placing his species in 

 this genus. 



Alar expanse. — 15-19 mm. 



Type. — In American Museum, 



Type locality. — Corso Valley, Kern County, California. 



Food plant. — Pinus monophylla. 



11. PETROVA GEMISTRIGULANA (Kearfott). 



(Fig. 63.) 



Evetria gemistrigulana Kearfott, Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus., vol. 28, 1905, p. 349. — 

 Barnes and McDunnough, Check List Lepid. Bor. Amer., no. 6765, 1917. 



This species is superficially much like the European P. resinella 

 Linneus. The two' are quite distinct in genitalia, however, and the 

 latter does not occur in our fauna. 



Male genitalia figured from cotype in United States National Mu- 

 seum from Tryon, North Carolina (Fiske, "5-20"). 



Distribution according to specimens in National Collection and 

 American Museum : North Carolina and Florida. 



Alar expanse. — 19-21 mm. 



Type. — In American Museum. 



Type locality. — Tryon, North Carolina. 



Food plant. — Unknown. 



12. PETROVA BURKEANA (Kearfott). 



(Fig. 60.) 



Evetria hurkemia Kearfott, Trans. Amer. Ent. Soc, vol. 33, 1907, p. 4. — Barnes 

 and McDunnough, Check List Lepid. Bor. Amer., no. 6772, 1917. 



This and the following species are spruce feeders as distinguished 

 from all the others in this genus (with the possible exception of 

 genhistHgulamu) which are confined to the pines.
