111. EUCOSMA CONSOBRINANA, new species. 

 (Fig. 242.) 



Like pulveratana Walsingham, of which it may prove to be a 

 variety. It is smaller, however, and has considerably smaller geni- 

 talia. The termen of fore wing is slightly concave, not so slanting 

 as in pulveratana and veins 3, 4, and 5 are appreciably approximate 

 at termen. In pulveratana (especially in the male) veins 3, 4, and 5 

 are more nearly parallel and the termen of fore wing is not con- 

 cave. The markings are the same in both species except that to the 

 naked eye consoirinana has a cloud of fuscous scaling near termen 

 below apex, which is not so noticeable in pulveratana. Color dirty 

 grayish white with grayish fuscous markings, 



Male genitalia of type figured. 



Alar expanse. — 11-14 mm. 



Type.— Cat No. 24816, U.S.N.M.
