OLENE. By Dr. W. Schaus. 
leucophaea. 0. leucophaea A. d. S. (72 e). <$. Forewing purplish grey; a short basal line, and basal space towards 
inner margin suffused with brown; antemedial line vertical, sinuous; medial space from costa to median vein 
paler; reniform large, oblique partly outlined in black; postmedial line outbent on costa, outcurved between 
veins 5 and 3, incurved and bent outwards above inner margin, followed by a brown shade and traces of suffused 
dark longitudinal streaks most prominent near costa. Hindwing dark smoky brown. $ paler; antemedial line 
inangled at median; medial space neutral grey on inner half, costal half whiter; reniform faint; postmedial 
line wavy, inbent on costa; subterminal dark line outangled between veins 6 and 7, outcurved above vein 3 
preceded by brown suffused with dark streaks. Hindwing pale smoky with darker subterminal shade and discal 
spot. Georgia. 
dorsipenna- 0. dorsipetinata B. d McD. (72 f). Eorewing olivaceous grey; basal line black, short; antemedial 
ia • line double, lunular; reniform broad, incompletely outlined in black, surrounded with whitish, less so than 
in other species of group; postmedial line irregularly dentate, strongly inangled above inner margin, followed 
by a diffuse drab shade; subterminal shade whitish, irregular with whitish patch near tornus; a fine marginal 
black line. Hindwing smoky brown with diffuse lines. 9 very similar to ; discal patch whiter, larger; marginal 
black line inwardly edged with white. Chelsea, Quebec, Canada. 
atomaria. 0. afomaria Wkr. ( — obliquata G. d R.) (72 f). <$• Fore wing: basal area mostly wood brown limited 
by the fine dark antemedial line which forms three outward curves; a short basal line; medial space whitish 
around reniform; postmedial line wavily outcurved, incurved above submedian; subterminal whitish shade 
indistinct. Hindwing dark smoky brown; traces of discal spot and subterminal line. $ paler; antemedial line 
parallela. more angular; postmedial line more vertical wavy. Eastern States. — f. parailela G. d R. (72 f). very similar 
to 0. atomaria Walk. Forewing: base and suffusions beyond postmedial of a deeper brown; a black streak from 
base below cell to postmedial or beyond. $ with dark scaling on median; an almost medial brown shade outbent 
from costa, then inbent from within cell to the dark streak in submedian space; the brown shading beyond 
aridensis. postmedial more pronounced than in 0. atomaria Wkr. New England; Pennsylvania. — f. aridensis Ben]. (72 g). 
Size, lines and ordinary spots as in 0. atomaria Wkr. $. Forewing: basal area and subterminal area chocolate- 
brown; medial space pale, olivaceous with tendencies to bluish or greenish; reniform strongly outlined by a 
dark line and filled in with whitish. Hindwing medium brown, with darker discal spot and outer line. New Jersey. 
Said to be a form of 0. atomaria Wkr. 
achaiina. 0. achatiiia A. d. S. (72 d). This species has never been properly identified according to Barnes 
and DcDttnnoixgh chiefly because the larva has not been identified and bred. In the Insects of Georgia, the 
figures represent a large species with a pronounced broad fuscous dash in basal area below cell. <J. Forewing: 
basal and terminal areas wood brown, the latter with a series of fuscous dashes on interspaces beyond postmedial; 
the medial area is bluish white with dark irrorations, the reniform outlined by black lines. Forewing: basal 
area like medial bluish white space; antemedial line wavily curved, dark brown preceded by a white line; the 
dark spots beyond postmedial larger, followed by a whitish subterminal shade. Georgia. We are figuring a $ 
from the Berlin-Museum with the label ,,Georgia“ which seems to match the description and shows clearly the 
dash in basal area below the cell, absent in the very similar 0. meridionalis. 
cinnamo- 0. cinnamomea G. d R. (72 g). g. very similar to 0. atomaria Wkd, but browner on basal and terminal 
mea - areas. Forewing entirely brown; lines brown shaded on either side with whitish scales; medial space with 
whitish scales on costal half, on which a brown reniform ringlet indicates the discal spot; a dark greyish patch 
medially above inner margin; postmedial line outbent at vein 2, incurved above sub median; some greyish scales 
on termen. New England States ; New York. 
manta. 0. manto Strck. (72 g). G- Fore wing chestnut brown; a faint basal lunular line; antemedial black line 
lunular dentate, vertical; postmedial black, irregular, curved inwardly between veins 3 and 4; reniform large 
outlined in white, the costa above between the lines white irrorated with black; some white scales on inner 
margin between the lines; a sinuous whitish subterminal shade. Hindwing dark greyish brown with traces 
of darker discal spot and subterminal shade. $ very similar to the male; discal area whiter; the subterminal 
inierposita. white shade more irregular. Georgia. — f. interposita Dyar. (72 h). ^ smaller, more uniformly brown. Forewing: 
the lines black, distinct, irregularly crenulate; a white cloud in the discal area defining the brown filled, oblique
