EXOTIC M1CR0LEPID0PTERA. 
oblique white strigul.a from costa at J, beyond this a blackish streak 
along costa to apex; a whitish or brown white-edged elongate 
apical mark, a slender irregular whitish terminal streak touching 
this but leaving a blackisn dot beneath apex, and a whitish tornal 
dot: cilia grey, on costa whitish at base and tips. Hindwings 
grey ; cilia light grey.

LEUC0G0NXA, u. g. 
Head smooth ; ocelli posterior ; tongue developed. Antennae f, 
6 simple, scape elongate, without pecten. Labial palpi long, 
recurved, second joint smooth-scaled, slightly thickened towards 
apex, truncate, terminal joint somewhat longer, slender, acute. 
Maxillary palpi rudimentary. Posterior tibiae loosely haired above. 
Pore wings 1 b furcate, 2-5 parallel, 7 and 8 out of 6, 7 to costa, 
11 from middle. Hindwings 1, elongate-trapezoidal, apex long- 
produced, termen emarginate, cilia 1|, with cubital pecten; 3 and 
4 connate, 5 somewhat approximated, 6 and 7 stalked. 
Type subsimella Clem., of which I have a series from Venice, 
California, also some from Alpine, Texas. This has been placed 
with Epithectis on the similar neuration, but by palpi, cubital 
pecten of hindwings, and general habit clearly belongs to the 
group of Battaristis. 
T0X0TACMA, n. g. 
Head with appressed scales : ocelli posterior ; tongue developed. 
Antennae 4, simple, scape moderate, without pecten. Labial 
palpi moderately long, curved, ascending, second joint rather thick¬ 
ened with scales, somewhat rough anteriorly towards apex, terminal 
joint shorter than second, moderate, acute. Maxillary palpi rudi¬ 
mentary. Posterior tibiae clothed with long hairs above. Fore¬ 
wings with tufts of scales on surface; 2 from towards angle, 7 and 
8 stalked, 7 to costa, 11 from middle. Hindwings under 1, 
trapezoidal, apex produced, termen sinuate, cilia nearly 2 ; 3 and 4 
connate, 5 rather approximated, 6 and 7 approximated towards 
base ; with cubital pecten (?) 
Apparent^ allied to Battaristis, and therefore geographically an 
interesting straggler, but peculiar and doubtful. 
Toxotacma meditans, n. sp. 
S . 10 mm. Head, thorax ochreous-whitish irrorated dark fus¬ 
cous, face ochreous-whitish. Antennse white, basal half finely 
annulated black, apical half with two broader and then four 
narrower dark fuscous bands. Palpi ochreous-whitish, second 
joint suffusedly irrorated dark fuscous, terminal joint with dark 
fuscous basal and supramedian bands. Forewings elongate, costa 
gently arched, apex obtuse-pointed, termen extremely obliquely 
rounded ; dark fuscous minutely speckled whitish, darker and 
blackish-sprinkled towards costa and termen; a group of raised
