with white and bordered with less black scales; undulate line absent. Hindwing white, at the margin feebly 
brownish. $ antennae finely serrate. Arizona. 
N. ignota B. & Benj. (40 b) is very closely allied to begallo , but the antennae are plainly ciliary, Ujnola. 
in begallo serrate and set with ciliary tufts, not plain as Hampson states by mistake. Forewing monotonously 
yellowish-white with a brown tint, all the markings effaced or quite extinct, only the reniform macula indicated 
by a feeble lighter spot at the lower cell-end, the posterior transverse line, as far as it is visible on the veins 
extended into long dents, the veins of the marginal area are feebly darkened. Hindwing white. Expanse of 
of wings: 25 to 26 mm. Texas. 
N. egestis 8m. (= abalas Sm.) (40 b). Forewing reddish-brown, particularly in the costal-marginal egt-sii*. 
region as far as below the cell more or less darkened, with darker striped veins; the transverse lines are rather 
indistinct, the anterior line punctiform, the posterior line with vein-streaks behind it; the maculae are absent 
or only marked by feeble whitish small spots, the undulate line is absent. Hindwing white at the margin 
brownish. Arizona. 
N. indecora Dgn. is a small insignificant species with drab forewings, with blackish-brown rather bidcrora. 
indistinct markings. - the dentate transverse lines are double, the maculae are absent except a large round dark 
spot at the cell-end; subterminally there is a dentate shadow. Hindwing lighter grey with a large median spot 
beneath. Expanse of wings: 28 mm. Argentina. 
N. variata Schs. (- fea Drc. part.) (40 b). Forewing greyish-brown, feebly strewn with a darker varluia. 
colour, with single dark transverse lines, the maculae surrounded with brown, the reniform macula strangulated 
and below centred with blackish; between both there is a faded middle line ; the lighter undulate line is proximally 
accompanied by a brown line. Hindwing whitish, at the margin brownish, in the $ quite brown. Mexico, Guate¬ 
mala, Costa Rica. 
N. charada Schs. (40 b) is a larger, lustrous brownish-grey species with lighter grey veins; the anterior charada. 
transverse line is double, brown, filled up with whitish, the posterior line single, distally bordered with whitish; 
the large maculae surrounded with light grey, the reniform macula is on the median somewhat inwardly produced. 
Hindwing greyish-brown. Mexico. 
103. Genus: JHypcnopsis Dyar. 
This genus only contains 1 small species looking entirely like a Hypenida. It entirely corresponds with 
the diagnose of Nolasodes except that the palpi are still much longer, the wings being long and narrow. The 
second palpal joint is like a long thick vesicle, twice as long as the head, porrect, the last joint very long and 
slenderly erected. This and the following genus are without the accessory cell. 
H. macula Drc. has light greyish-brown forewings with a somewhat darkened costal-marginal area macula. 
and a light oblique band from the apex to the hind-margin, and an undulate darker line along the distal margin. 
Hindwing yellowish-white, at the margin somewhat more intensely yellowish. From California to Brazil. 
104. Genus: Ifenopsfmus Dyar. 
Extremely similar to the preceding as well as to Nolasodes, from both of which it only differs in the 
structure of the palpus, the 2nd joint not being vesicular but on the whole more slender, also somewhat shorter 
and in front with beard-like hair, the last joint not erect, but porrect. 2 small species have been described. 
M. caducus Dyar (40 b). Forewing very light yellowish with a punctiform anterior transverse line, caducus. 
the dots of which are but rarely connected by a brownish line, the posterior line, quadrangularly comprising 
the cell-end, is distally bordered with a lighter colour; the reniform macula is a small blackish lunular spot; 
the light undulate line is proximally darker shaded. Hindwing smoky-grey. Expanse of wings: 12 to 13 mm.

the cotype. It is lighter, less strewn, the basal line is entirely absent, the undulate line less oblique, more parallel 
to the margin. 
M. crambiformis Dyar (= dubia Schs. I) (42 e). Forewing deep brown with golden yellow transverse crambifor- 
lines, both forming a sharp angle in the upper thirds, before the distal line there is here a lilac spot, behind 
it below accompanied by a lilac band; the costal margin is white-striped before the apex, before the margin 
there is a black, distally yellow line; the reniform macula is an oblique white spot. Hindwing brownish-grey. 
Expanse of wings: 12 mm. Panama. 
105. Genus: CJarbona Schs. 
Proboscis well developed, the moderately long palpi are erect, the 2nd joint in front scaled, last joint 
straight ly porrect. Thorax clad with hair intermixed with scales, in front and behind with loose tufts; the
