A widely-distributed genus including a large number of species, 109 being enume- 
rated from Europe alone by Dr. Staudinger in his ‘Catalogue.’ About a dozen species 
are known from America north of Mexico; but from Tropical America six only appear 
to have been described as yet—one. from Honduras, three from Colombia, one from 
Venezuela, and one from Guiana. ‘Twenty are here recorded from within our limits, 
sixteen of which are described as new.
