atively short, stout, erect, trifidiform palpi. Eyes naked. Ocelli 

 present. The antennas in the male strongly bipectinate, in the 

 female with the segments well separated, each terminated by a short 

 spur or projecting edge of fine hair. Front broad, rounded. Tho- 

 rax weak, rounded, and untufted ; the clothing scaly. Abdomen long, 

 in the male conical, in the female cylindrical ; in both sexes the dor- 

 sal tufts are absent, but short lateral tufts are present, more distinct 

 in the female than the male. The legs are long, smoothly scaled and 

 slender. The wings are elongate, the angles rounded, and the mark- 

 ings common to both pairs, as in Pangrapta. 



9. Tornos robiginosus no v. sp. 



?. Expanse 25 to 28 mm. Length of body 10 to 11 mm. 



The basal and central portions of bot^i wings pale yellowish, with 

 a brown tinge ; beyond, a broad, blackish, contrasting terminal band. 

 On the light region of the anterior wings the markings are nearly 

 obsolete, except the large, distinct, reniform spot, formed of black 

 raised scales ; the orbicular is seen as a faint, dark spot ; the median 

 shade is more or less distinct, diffuse, extending around the reniform, 

 and subparallel with the faint, interrupted, exterior line ; the brown 

 tinge is more evident along the border of the black terminal band. 

 On the posterior wings the markings are similar, but darker and more 

 diffuse. Beneath still darker, with the markings above reproduced, 

 the discal dots distinct. 



Described from two specimens which vary considerably, but seem 

 to belong to the same species. 



d. Expanse 23 to 25 mm. Length of body 10 to 11 mm. 



Both wings uniform dark, slightly brownish gray, the terminal 

 black border barely perceptible, the reniform distinct, as in the 

 female, all the other spots and lines obsolete. Beneath uniform, of 

 the same color as above, the discal dots not so distinct as in the 

 female. 



Described from two specimens which agree perfectly with each 

 other. 



Hab. Waco, Texas. 



Notwithstanding the great difference between the sexes, we can 

 not consider them other than belonging to the same species. 



10. Tarache tenuicula nov. sp. 

 Expanse 16 mm. Length of body 8 mm. 



This species is closely allied to erastroides Guen., and intermediate 

 between it and candefacta Hb. The head and thorax white ; the
