and another species, of which there are two specimens (66761—2, MEXICO : GUERRERO : 
Amula, 6000 ft., VIII-IX., H. H. Smith) is perhaps not distinct from 6370 strigifinitella 
Clms.—but better material is required before recording these species with certainty.

Gracilaria spp. 
This genus is represented by species allied to 6352 violacella Clms. (66749, Mextco : 
TABASCO: ‘Teapa, IIL, H. H. Smith); 6354 elongella L. (66748, Mexico: GUERRERO :

GUERRERO: Amula, 6000 ft., VIII, “4. H. Smith); and 6367 sassafrasella Chmb. 
(66750, Mexico: taspasco: Teapa, III., H. H. Smith), but the single specimens of each 
are not in condition to justify these species being actually recorded.

[(Treitschke proposed his genus Ornix for the reception of two series of species :— 
“A. Mit kleineren Palpen, einfachen Fihlern. Die Raupen leben minirend, in 
Blattern, und verwandeln sich unter fester, pergamentartiger Decke” (=sp. 1-14), and 
«“B, Mit starken buchigen Palpen und Haarpinseln oder doch Verdickungen am 
Anfange der Fihler. Die Raupen sind Sacktragerinnen, und verwandein sich in 
dieser Bekleidung” (sp. 15-26). Curtis [Br. Ent. 10 expl. Pl. 479 p. 2 (1833)] cited 
stigmatella F. (= upupaepennelia Hb., Crt.) as the Type of Orniz Tr., sinking 
Treitschke’s genus as synonymous with Gracilaria Hw. Duponchel [ Ann. Soc. Ent.
