"' ^^^'jrj Five males and two females are at hand for comparison. The species â¢s mos nearly like lepusculina; but it differs by the much darker ground color, the somewhat narnower and more powdery primaries, while the transverse posterior Ime is continuous in all the specimens, ihe harpes ure narrower and more pointed than in its ally, and the clasper is quite .tout and well developed. The front is moderately bulging, but not prominent. The palin reach to its middle and in leg structure it does uot difter apparently from lepusculina. ''^sZ^tl^'^^ 7i^ANSVERSATA, new species. (Plates X, fig. 10, male adult; XX, fig. 3, male genitalia.) Ground color ashen gray, distinctly and quite densely black pow- dered The head and thorax are, as usuu, without markings except or a black hue reaching to the base of the primaries from the sides of the palpi. The ordinary maculation is more or less distinctly traceable m all the specimens before me, though never quite complete. The basal I IS marked by a black spot on the costa. The transverse anterior mo IS m.^rked by a black spot on the costa, which is sometimes double by a pair ot angulated marks below the cell, and by one or two lunules on the inner margin. In one case the connection between these spots .narks IS almost complete, so there is nearly a full transverse ante- rior line. The median shade is marked by a blackish spot on the costa extending obliquely to darken the reniform, thence
