34 mm. Mexico. 
E. dertosa Drc. (165 k). Ground-colour of forewing light yellowish, dusted with blackish brown ex¬ 
cept on the marginal part; a blackish inwardly white-edged line from the middle of the inner margin to the

E. paida Dyar (= osseata Schs.) (165 k) is light straw-coloured, scantily strewn with black, the fore¬ 
wing with a bent white line from the middle of the inner margin to the distal third of the costal margin, edged 
with dark inside and broadly with light ochreous outside; a small strangulated discal spot at the cell-end.
