NOTES ON SOME MOTHS COLLECTED AT SILVER
LAKE, CHESHAM, NEW HAMPSHIRE
Cornell University
From July 14 to 18 inclusive the writer collected moths at light on the west side of Silver Lake, near Chesham, N. H. A complete list of the species taken would seem unnecessary, but a number of the records are liable to be of interest to students of the distribution of New England . Lepidoptera.
The nomenclature followed is that of the New York State List of Insects. All identifications have been checked with the collection of the Cornell University Department of En- tomology, and doubtful cases with the collection of the U. S. National Museum. The writer is indebted to Dr. W. T. M. Forbes and Messrs. August Busck and Carl Heinrich for checking (and in some cases correcting) many of his determinations.
TINEIDAE
Tinea sp. near croceoverticella Chamb., but much smaller. LYONETIIDAE
Bucculatrix canadensisella Chamb. Very common. GRACILARIIDAE

Gracilaria packardella Chamb.
Gracilaria serotinella Ely.

PYRALIDIDAE
Polloccia alticolalis Dyar. Common.
Paralispa terrenella Z.
Elophila plevie Dyar. Very abundant. I have also taken this species in abundance at East Killingly, Conn. I can- not understand why its occurrence in the North has been so long overlooked. Type in the U. S. N. M. Glyptocera conso brinella Z:
Meroptera unicolorella Hulst.
NOCTUIDAE
Parahypenodes quadralis B. & McD.
Panthea furcilla Pack. Very common! One specimen was a partial gynandromorph, the left wings and antenna being male, while those of the right side are female. The abdomen and genitalia appear to be normally male. Plusia alias Ottol.
Eriopus mollissima Guen.
Eurois (Matuta) youngii Smith. Specimens were taken which intergraded strongly to E. elimata Guen., which was also taken. There appears to be some doubt that . these are distinct species.
