Among the material sent for identification by Mr. J. L. Sperry was a small series of what appears to be a new species of Pherne; at any rate the specimens do not agree with any of the three species at present listed under this generic name and figured in the Barnes and McDunnough “Contributions” III, Pl. XV, figs 7, 8. 14. As is usual the antennae are bipectinate in both sexes, the pectinations in the female being distinct but much shorter than in the male; the palpi are distinctly shorter than in subpunctata Hlst.; the apical portion of the outer margin of primaries is less excavated and the angle at vein 5 less sharp than in the other members of the genus.
