Cucullia Hartmanni, n sp.

Expanse 1.75 inches, length of body .75 inch. General color of fore wings pale gray, so suffused in places with dark gray as to give the wings a moderately dark gray cast, but not so dark as C. intermedia, Spey. Lines black, basal half line only indicated on the costa. T. a line double; the inner part almost imperceptible; strongly dentate, from its origin projecting obliquely outward to a strong tooth on the fold in the discal cell, with a short tooth on the fold between the costal and subcostal veins; from discal tooth it receds to median vein a little nearer the body than its inception on the costa; from this it extends out in another tooth nearly twice as far out as the discal tooth, the point resting on the submedian fold, almost reaching the infection of the t.p. line, the points of both lines nearly obsolete in a white patch at this place that fades out into the general color; about the middle of the space from teh median vein to submedian fold a brownish black spur is sent our parallel with the median vein, terminating above the middle of the white patch; the line reaches the posterior margin by another inflexoon on submedian vein, and another outward tooth below the vein.
