15. ANCYUS TORONTANA (Kearfott). 



Pi'oteoteras torontcma Keabfott, Trans. Amer. Ent. Soc, vol. 33, 1907, p. 50. — 

 Barnes and McDunnough, Check List Lepid. Bor. Amer., no. 7133, 1917. 



The type is a male in very poor condition, without abdomen and 

 much stained, which probably accounts for the yellowish tint of the 

 ground color mentioned by Kearfott in his description. Except for 

 the brown crescent from midcosta to apex, the type is like mediofas- 

 ciana. In some specimens of the latter there is a suggestion of a dark 

 shade connecting the fascia and the dark apical spot, but I have seen 

 no true medio fascimia which had an unbroken brown crescent on the 

 outer half of costa. With more material from the type locality 

 torontana may prove to be but an aberration of Clemens' species ; but 

 for the present it must be kept separate.
