I use this terra here in the same broad sense in which I used it in 

 my Eevisiou of the Heliothime, Trans. Am. Ent. Soc., x, 225. It is 

 quite likely that the large number of additional species constantly 

 turning up may require its subdivision and the use of some of the 

 generic terms discarded by me. The line of division may perhaps be 

 that indicated in the Revision; but a better may be found on renewed 

 study. The genera included under the above term are: 



Tamila, Gn., Spec. Gen., Noct., n, 176. 



Anthcecia, Bdv., Ind. Meth., 162. 



Lygranthcecia, G. and R., Trans. Am. Eut. Soc., iv, 432. 



Euleucyptera, Grt., Proc. Ent. Soc. Phil., iv, 329. 



Tricopis, Grt., Bull. Buff. Soc. Nat., Sci., 11, 76. 



On'a, Hbn., Verzeichniss, 238. 



Porrima, Grt., Bull. Geol. Surv., in, 798. 



Besides these, Mr. Grote has, on the characters pointed out by me, 

 used the terms Trichosellus and Canidia in his Revised Check List of 

 1891. Some of these names may come into use later; but of these 

 Lygrcmtlioecia has perhaps the weakest of all claims to consideration. 

 Of the species treated in the above revision, the tibial armature and 

 wing inaculation are there figured; but no reference to these figures is 

 here made. 



B. chrysellus Grt.* 



1874. Grt., Bull. Buff. Soc. Nat. Sci., n, 76, Tricopis. 

 1883. Smith, Trans. Am. Ent. Soc., X, 227, Schinia. 



HABITAT. Texas, March, May to October; Colorado; New Mexico. 

 The type is in the British Museum. 



S. velaris Grt.* 



1879. Grt., Can. Ent., xi, 197, Tamila. 



1883. Smith, Trans. Am. Ent. Soc., x, 229, Schinia. 



ochreifascia Smith. 

 1883. Smith, Trans. Am. Ent. Soc., xvm, 126, Scliinia. 



HABITAT. California, July and August. 



Mr. Grote's type is in the British Museum ; my types are in the Na- 

 tional Museum. I was quite surprised to find Mr. Grote's type the 

 same as my species. It means that the specimens I have seen so 

 named in American collections are erroneously determined and that 

 my description and figures in the Revision apply to some other, perhaps 

 undescribed, species. I can not remember from what collection I had 

 my specimens of velaris. 



S. hulstia Topper. 



1883. Tepper, Trans. Am. Ent. Soc., x, 228, tichinia. 



HABITAT. Texas ; Colorado. 



The type is in the Tepper collection.
