Epizeuxis gopheri, n. sp.

Ground colour a very pale mouse-gray, the wings with the appearance of being thinly scaled. On the thorax is a slightly warmer, more brown or reddish tinge, while the under side is darker and somewhat more smoky throughout. Primaries with all the lines diffuse and vague, except the s. t., which is distinct and very sharply dentated. The basal line is wanting. The t. a. line is pale, without defined margins, and crosses the wings with scarcely an out-curve. The t. p. line is yet more feebly marked except on the costa, and crosses the wing with a feeble outcurve, a little more marked than the outer margin of the wing itself. In the male this line seems to be better defined than in the female. The s. t. line is whitish, distinct, and irregularly toothed in both directions; that is, inwardly as well as outwardly — as a whole keeping al about the same distance from the outer margin throughout. The ordinary spots are very feebly marked; the orbicular a faint yellowish dot, and the reniform a somewhat larger blotch of the same colour; but in both cases indefinite. The secondaries are distinctly paler, more washed out and becoming almost whitish at the base.
