American purpui'eofusca Wals. 
Thelyasceta nonstrigella Chamb. 
I am indebted to Mr. S. Busck for specimens showing that both 
sexes of this species (not the $ only, as stated by me) have the 
antennse similarly thickened with dense scales, by which therefore 
the genus is easily recognisable ; and that the larger purpureofusca 
Wals. is a distinct insect not possessing these scales. I refer 
purpureofusca to Onebala , next alacella.
