Cockerell, coloradensis Strand) (7 b) is darker red-brown, whereby it resembles more brunneigera ; but it is easily 
discernible by the double transverse lines and the distinct median shade. 
E. bifasciata Sm. (7 b) is very much like brunneigera, but easily recognizable by the very much 
approximated single transverse stripes, the posterior one of which is fused with the median shade at the costal 
and proximal margins; maculae little visible. From Arizona. 
E. fumalis Ort. (= permunda Morr.) (7 b) is dark greyish-brown; anterior transverse line double, 
composed of 4 bows, the posterior line single, dentate; no median shade; maculae only marked by darker puncti- 
form spots. Hindwing almost just as dark brown. Canada, United States to the south as far as New York. — 
f. vestitura Sm. is tinted more reddish or yellowish and has a distinct median shade. Described from New 
Brunswick. 
E. Ontario Sm. (7 b) has dark blackish-brown forewings with a still darker discal area, the transverse 
lines are distinctly double, also the median shade is marked; the ring-macula is a small light spot, the reniform 
macula is dark, light-ringed; undulate line marked by light scales. Hindwing likewise quite dark. Canada. 
E. coniosa Morr. is light brick-coloured; transverse lines blackish, the anterior line double, the posterior 
line single; between the indistinct maculae an almost straight median shade, the undulate line proximally shaded 
with dark, behind it the marginal area is darkened. Hindwing reddish grey. Expanse of wings: 37 mm. Colorado. 
E. quinquelinea Sm. (7 b) is not unlike bifasciata, but more brownish-grey, the transverse lines 
much farther separated, the median shade isolated, not fused with the posterior one. California. — f. lutulenta 
Sm. (7 c) is lighter yellowish-brown, the transverse lines are indistinctly double; from Nevada. — f. incallida 
Sm. (7 b), however, is a lighter brownish-grey form. — From Canada to California. 
E. lucida B. & McD. (9 h), similar to lutulenta (7 c), is a very small, light oclireous species with grey 
strewing which increases towards the margin; median area of a brighter ochreous colour; transverse lines double, 
particularly the anterior line filled up with a somewhat lighter shade; between the bright yellow maculae a 
faded darker median shade, the undulate line lighter, proximally shaded with brown, forming a W below the 
centre. Hindwing smoky brown, towards the base lighter. Utah. 
E. vallus Sm. (7 d) is yellowish-grey, intensely dusted with a dark grey; transverse lines single, the 
posterior line pointedly dentate, the median shade broadly faded, between the large, light ring-macula and 
the dark-pupilled reniform macula; undulate line marked by dark indistinct spots. Hindwing light brownish- 
grey. British Columbia. 
E. bostoniensis Grt. (7 c) is larger than the preceding, with lighter whitish hindwings, with a more 
distinct, narrower, strongly dentate median line and without any maculae; undulate line marked by darker 
dusting before it. Canada, North-Eastern and Central States. 
E. vulpina Sm. (7 c) is smaller, ashy-grey, without the yellow tint of the preceding, the transverse 
lines much more indistinct; median shade distinct, but faded; undulate line marked by small light spots. Hind¬ 
wing light grey. British Columbia. 
E. quebecensis Sm. (7 d) is still smaller, of a dirty brownish grey, strewn darker, with indistinct 
markings. Transverse lines single, the posterior line pointedly dentate; median shade faint; maculae lighter 
than the ground, the reniform macula pupilled dark; undulate line marked by white dusting. Hindwing brownish- 
grey. Canada (Quebec). — f. dolens Sm. is more bluish ashy-grey, towards the distal margin dusted more reddish- 
brown, particularly the undulate line proximally shaded with red-brown; transverse lines still more indistinct, 
the posterior line is almost entirely absent; maculae scaled somewhat orange. British Columbia. -— f. quinta 
Sm. is more ashy grey, dusted with brown, the posterior transverse line double, but the distal half is only 
traceable by dots on the veins; median shade broad, dark; from British Columbia. •— f. moxa Sm. is dull yellowish- 
grey, but with a light undulate line distally shaded darker and a blackish spot as the reniform macula being 
the only marking, and with ferruginous, yellow-striped fringes; described from Colorado and Durango. 
E. dakota Sm. Loam-coloured yellow, strewn darker, with black markings; the transverse lines 
are double only at the costal margin, otherwise single, bordered with a somewhat lighter tint, with a broad, 
straight, faded median shade; maculae indistinctly marked blackish; the undulate line is a dark shade. Hind¬ 
wing of a dirty grey, towards the margin brownish. Expanse of wings: 32 to 34 mm. Dakota. 
E. lineifrorss Sm. (= audentis Sm.) (7 c.) is marked by a black band on the frons. Colour of forewing 
whitish greyish-yellow, transverse lines blackish, dentate, distinct, partly double by dots on the veins, with 
a distinct median shade being broken at the median; of the maculae only the reniform macula is visible as a 
small blackish luna. Undulate line proximally shaded dark like the margin. Hindwing dirty white, towards 
the margin blackened. Colorado.
