[March 
of card, with the wings unexpanded and have been too much denuded 
in the process of setting to enable me to determine precisely to what 
genus and species they belong. One of these which was taken in the 
winter time, hybernating under the loose bark of trees, is a Ijitho- 
colletis, either Rohiniella or (Jratsegelld^ but possibly a new species. 
There were likewise new specimens of Phyllocnistis, so much denuded 
and worn that I cannot determine the species. 
Depressaria cinereocostella. n. s.—Fore wings reddish-brown, grayish along 
the costa, marked with numerous, short, black longitudinal dashes. Hind 
wings grayish fuscous. 
Head and thorax grayish. Labial palpi whitish: middle joint with two dark 
brown patches and the ends of the scales beneath, touched with dark brownish; 
terminal joint dark brownish, with two grayish rings, one in the middle, the 
other at the extreme tip.

HAMADEYAS, n. gen. 
This imago, which I have placed in a new genus, appears to me to 
be congeneric with a portion of the genus Gelechia. 
The hind wings are lanceolate. The submedian and internal veins 
distinct. Subcostal simple, attenuated towards the base. The disc is 
closed and two nervules are given off from it. The median vein is 3- 
branched. 
The fore wings are lanceolate, with the inner margin dilated near 
the base of the wing. The subcostal vein has four branches, the first 
arising near the middle of the wing and the apical nervule furcate. 
The disc is closed, with two nervules given off from it. Median vein, 
3-branched, the posterior branch arising midway between the space 
opposite the origins of the first and second subcosto-marginal nervules. 
Sub median furcate at the base. 
Head smooth, face and forehead broad. Ocelli very small. An¬ 
tennae rather thick, about one-half as long as the fore wings, denticu¬ 
lated beneath. Labial palpi moderately long, curved, rather slender, 
smooth, pointed ; the middle joint slightly compressed, rather thicker 
and longer than the terminal joint, which is cylindrical. Maxillary 
palpi, extremely short. Tongue clothed with scales at the base and 
about as long as the anterior coxm.
