15. Melipotis subtilis. 
Bolina subtilis, Walk. Cat. xiii. p. 1156". 
Hab. Muxico, Presidio (Forrer).—Antities, San Domingo |. 
Our specimen from Presidio agrees well with the type in the National Collection. 
16. Melipotis cellaris. 
Bolina cellaris, Guén. Sp. gén. des Lép. vii. p. 66+; Walk. Cat. xiii. p. 1159”.

Iam enabled to identify Guénée’s species with certainty, Mons. C. Oberthiir having 
kindly sent me the type for comparison. 
17. Melipotis marmoraris. (Tab. XXXI. fig. 15.) 
Bolina marmoraris, Guén. Sp. gén. des Lép. vii. p. 67°; Walk. Cat. xiii. p. 1159’. 
Hab. Honpuras 12,—Brazin 12, 
We are indebted to Mons. C. Oberthiir for the loan of Guénée’s type, and our figure 
is taken from this example. We have not received any specimens from our country 
that quite agree with it. 
18. Melipotis manipularis. 
Bolina manipularis, Guén. Sp. gén. des Lép. vii. p. 68'; Walk. Cat. xiii. p. 11597. 
Bolina indomita, Walk. Cat. xiii. p. 1161 °.

Melipotis ochreipennis, Grote, List of North-American Moths, p. 39 (1882).

and Dos Arroyos 1000 feet, in Guerrero, Cuernavaca (H. H. Smith), Coatepec

In some parts of our country this is one of the commonest insects. Mr. Champion 
obtained a large number of specimens at El Reposo; these were found on the wing 
amongst long grass in open places in the daytime. The example received from 
Yucatan may belong to a distinct species; it is darker in colour and smaller, but is so 
much rubbed and broken that it is impossible to form an opinion without fresh specimens. 
I am quite unable to separate Bolina indomita or B. ochreifascia from M. manipularis.
