TRICHOPOLIA; ENGELHARDTIA; STRETCHIA. By Dr. M. Draudt. 
undulate line consists of very small black sagittae almost extending into the apex. Hindwing white with brown 
veins and margin. From North Peru. 
gJaucippe. P. glaucippe Dogn. (22 d) is on the ash-grey forewing intensely strewn with white, by the accumu¬ 
lation of the white scales 3 large white costal-marginal spots, 2 antemedian spots and one behind the cell-end 
are produced; at the base there is a harpoon-shaped blackish-brown longitudinal ray; the ring-macrda is very 
large, pupilled whitish and obliquely situate, its black border is in the confluent with the reniform macula, 
in the 9 not, the blacldsh-brown filling of the cell between them extends as a triangular spot to the costal margin; 
the posterior transverse line is dentate whitish; subapically at the costal margin another blackish-brown triangu¬ 
lar spot, below it the oblique whitish, proximally brown-shaded undulate line extending from the apex to the 
third quarter of the proximal margin. Hindwing white, veins and discal dot greyish-brown with speckled fringes. 
Peru, Colombia (Mt. Tolima), Bolivia (Cuesta de Cillutincara). 
33. Genus ; Tric3ioj»olia CM. 
We leave this genus containing but one species at this place, because it is usually looked for here; accor¬ 
ding to recent ascertainments, however, it is not in the least allied to the neighbouring genera, but it would 
be better placed between Admetovis and Lophoceramica and it is more closely allied to Scotogramma and Hydroe - 
ciodes. Proboscis developed, palpi obliquely erect, scaled; Irons rough, scarcely raised, with a horny plate below 
it; the eyes are only at their posterior part ciliated, the male antennae strongly combed, in the last third serrate, 
in the $ ciliated; the thorax is clad with broad scales, the prothorax and metathorax exhibit loose tufts. The 
abdomen exhibits a larger tuft only on the first ring, a very small one on the second ring. 
dentaiella. T. dentatella CM. (= obtusa Sm., licentiosa Sm.) (22 a) is brownish olive-grey with very indistinct 
markings, all the 3 maculae being present and finely encircled with black, of the undulate transverse lines there 
are only traces; in the marginal area black internerval sagittae. Hindwing white with black marginal dots. 
From Utah to Arizona and California, 
34. Genus: Kngchlliartftia B. & Bmj. 
Proboscis stunted, the short palpi long-haired; the frons is like in Trieliopolia rough with a horny plate 
below it; the eyes are not large, very slightly strangulated, very hairy and with extraordinarily strong cilia; 
<$ antennae with long pinnae standing rectangularly to the shaft; the body is clad with long hair without 
tufts; abdomen laterally covered with long hair. Only 1 species: 
E. ursina Sm. (22 e) has whitish-grey forewings dusted with brown, the costal-marginal and distal- 
marginal areas remaining lighter; in the cell and above the submedian fold black longitudinal stripes; from 
the apex obliquely to the centre of the proximal margin a row of black sagittae being above short and growing 
onger below. Hindwing greyish-brown. From Colorado. 
35. Genus: Utretchia Edw. 
Separated from the preceding genus by its smooth frons with a hair-tuft and the keeled, somewhat 
hood-shaped collar, as well as by tufts on the prothorax and metathorax. The genus is American, but the Japanese 
Xylomania saxea (Vol. Ill, p. 88) was united with it. 
muricina. St. muricina Grt. (22 a) has red-brown forewings dusted with purple grey except the discal area, the 
costal-margin strewn with white, with single dentate transverse lines; the upper maculae have flown together 
forming a V or FT shaped marking, and they are strewn and encircled with whitish, before, between and below 
them black or deep brown dusting, behind the reniform macula a ferruginous brown spot; before the indistinct 
light undulate line at the costal margin a small dark stripe, towards the margin dark stripes on the veins. Hind¬ 
wing reddish-brown. Canada. 
inferior. St. inferior Sm. Dark grey, base of collar reddish, the forewing very indistinctly striated brown with 
extinct transverse lines; the large, confluent upper maculae are somewhat lighter than the ground and not 
defined with dark. Hindwing monotonously greyish-brown. Expanse of wings: 30 mm. California. 
plusiaefor- St. plusiaeformis Edw. (23 b) is on the forewing bluish-white, strewn with dark brown, with a 
mls ' short black basal ray and single, undulate, not dentate transverse lines; the maculae being broadly confluent 
like a U are distally and below encircled with a dark brown, around it reddish-brown dusting, behind the renifom 
macula more ferruginous-red; the indistinct light undulate line is proximally bordered with blackish-brown, 
more distinctly so towards the costal margin. Hindwing greyish-brown with yellowish-white fringes. United 
coloradicola. States (Nevada). —• coloradicola Strd. (= ab. I Hmps .) has broader and much darker forewings, not confluent 
maculae without the reddish tint in the surroundings, here only somewhat darker, the posterior transverse 
line is situate nearer at the reniform macula and straighter in its course, — The larva is on its whitish ground
