sembles G. viatica at first siqht, but belongs with G. pastillicans to ci differ- ent section of the genus.
Expanse, 46 mm. Of the same color as G. viat- ica, but smaller, and with the transverse posterior line punctate, and the subtcrminal also broken into spots. Stigmata pale ringed, well sized, con- colorous; rcniform stained at base. The markings are faint. Hind wings
fuscous above; with diseal spot and line beneath. Antennae white at base.
Abdomen with ocliery anal hairs. (A. R, Groie.) Rare, at sugar, in September.
Several (poor) specimens were taken
at sugar in October.
Noctuae have been abundant here this fall. Besides the additional species of Lithophane mentioned above, I have taken all those given in my former list, The larvaa of Lithophane disposita and L. Bethunei were found last June at the roots of apple and willow trees. It. Thaxter.
