This pale area is followed by an inwardly oblique band of reddish-brown that extends from the cell to the inner margin; from the cell to the costa, a buff- colored band is present. The bar is followed by a faint gray antemedian line, with a similar postmedian line further out. The disco- cellular spot is weak or absent but not strongly defined as it is in adelalis. The postmedian and subterminal areas have the cream colored ground color, shaded with buff. A dark apical spot is present and the fringe is creamy-buff. DISTRIBUTION: Please refer to the dot map.

Gillette Museum of Arthropod Diversity, Department of Bioagricultural Sciences and Pest Management Colorado State University, Fort Collins, CO 80523 Abstract A list of 1531 species ofLepidoptera is presented, collected over 15 years (1988 to 2002), in eleven southern West Virginia counties. A variety of collecting methods was used, including netting, light attracting, light trapping and pheromone trapping. The specimens were identified by the currently available pictorial sources and determination keys. Many were also sent to specialists for confirmation or identification. The majority of the data was from Kanawha County, reflecting the area of more intensive sampling effort by the senior author. This imbalance of data between Kanawha County and other counties should even out with further sampling of the area. Key Words: Appalachian Mountains,

LINDSEY My first contribution to the study of the Lepidoptera of Iowa appeared in the Proceedings of the Academy for 1914 in the form of a list of butterflies, exclusive of skippers, taken in Wood­ bury county (Proc. Ia. Acad. Sci. xxi, 1914, 341-346). Later I was able to complete the identification of the skippers in my possession and to examine a number of collections in various parts of the state, thus increasing my list to such an extent that in 1917 I published a second list, embracing the entire state and including all of the Diurnals (Ent. News xxviii, 1917, 347-353).
