E. lineifera Blch. (8 c) with a peculiarly narrow, pointed shape of the wings is dark brown with a Unci/era. 
whitish costal stripe and white-striped veins, a black basal ray and black sagittae instead of the undulate line; 
transverse lines and maculae are absent altogether. Hindwing dark brown. Chile. 
E. steniptera Dogn. has likewise narrow wings of brown, strewn with white subcostally, on the median, steniptera. 
the inner-marginal vein and at the proximal margin in the central area, with black markings: basally a costal- 
marginal streak and a submedian dot, a black spot at the base of the cell, from which 2 branches proceed enclo¬ 
sing a white area as a ring-macula and uniting before the reniform macula; coniform macula present in a similar 
shape; the reniform macula is large and indistinct, proximally brownish, distally bordered by black, from where 
black stripes extend between the veins. Hindwings grey with white fringes. Expanse of wings: 23 mm. Peru 
(Cuzco). 
E. clavisigna Dogn. is brownish, dusted with a lilac grey; anterior transverse line brown, only visible clavisigna. 
below the cell, with the coniform macula from which an oblique stripe extends to the proximal margin, cutting 
the beginning of the brown posterior transverse line; the two upper maculae are quite indistinct, yellowish; 
undulate line an indistinct shade. Hindwing grey. Expanse of wings: 26 to 27 mm. Ecuador. 
E. liomima Dogn. Forewing brown; anterior transverse line marked by 2 or 3 black dots, the posterior nomima. 
line finely dentate; the upper maculae are brown, the ring-macula oblong oblique, above open, the reniform 
macula traversing the lower cell-angle, surrounded with black, in the jet-black cell; undulate line marked by

E. ochrogaster Gn. (= turris Grt.) (8 b) is a large, deep red-brown or more yellowish-brown species ochrogasler. 
with indistinct transverse lines; maculae rather inconspicuously grey-ringed and surrounded with black, the 
ground of the cell before and between them more intensely dusted with black; a median line extends from the 
lower cell-angle to the proximal margin; behind the postmedian the veins are dark-striped; the undulate line 
is light, proximally often with small black sagittae. Hindwing brown, toAvards the base lighter. Apex of abdomen, 
and ventral side ochreous. Canada, United States to Missouri, Colorado. — f. insignata WJcr. (= cinereomacula insignata. 
Morr., gularis Grt.) is more greyish-brown, marked somewhat more variegatedly. 
E. excellens Grt. (= perexcellens Grt., infelix Sm.) (8 b) is as large as the preceding, of a lighter red' excellens. 
brown, with a whitish costal-marginal streak and a black basal ray; anterior transverse line double, filled up 
with whitish, the posterior line single, towards the margin light reddish parts; the whitish maculae with brownish 
pupils and surrounded with black are in the black ground of the cell; undulate line distinct, white, before it 
black sagittae. Hindwing brownish, on the margin and veins darker. Canada to California. — The larva is 
dirty brownish, above lighter, with light subdorsal lines and a whitish stigmatal; it is polyphagous. 
E. atrifera Grt. (= pindor Sm.) (8 c) is light greyish-brown, on the thorax more reddish with a long atrifera. 
black basal ray and quite indistinct transverse lines; the hardly lighter maculae are situate in the blackened 
cell; the coniform macula is also surrounded with black. Hindwing white, on the veins and margin brownish. 
United States: Maine, Colorado, California. 
E. silens Grt. (8 c) is very similar, greyer, finely strewn with brown; the transverse lines are entirely silens. 
extinct, the surroundings of the grey, black-encircled maculae are red-brown, the veins in the marginal areas 
being striped brown; undulate line indistinctly grey with small brown sagittae before it. Hindwing as in atrifera. 
Nevada. 
E. pimensis B. & McD. (8 d). Forewing light reddish-grey with double transverse lines and large, pimensis. 
equally coloured maculae finely surrounded with black, in the cell not being darkened; no coniform macula; 
behind the indistinct, lighter undulate line the marginal area is darkened. Hindwing of a pure white, diaphanous. 
From Arizona, described according to 1 $. 
E. tristicula Morr. (= nesilens Sm.) (8 c) is quite light greyish-yellow, the collar with a black band, tristicula. 
On the almost unmarked forewing only the black basal ray and a triangular and quadrangular black spot are 
visible in the cell before and between the {dace of the maculae, as well as some small blackish spots of the 
undulate line. Hinduing whitish, marginal area brownish. Maine. 
E. brocha Morr. { — bochus Morr.) (8 d) has reddish-grey forewings strewn with black, in the costal brocha. 
halves striated brown; transverse lines marked by short black streaks on the veins; instead of the ring-macula 
a dark dot, the reniform macula is a small, dark luna from which a red-brown median line extends to the proxi¬ 
mal margin. Hindwing whitish, at the margin brownish with a median spot and a series of dots on the veins 
behind it. From Nebraska, Kansas, Colorado, and Nevada. — The larva is greenish -brown with a black head 
and black tubercles; it lives on clover and Cruciferae.
