species of ScMnia are much more numerous and closely allied than I 

 suspected in 1882, and the two preceding are fairly marked and both 

 distinct from separata, as species go here. 



S. walsinghami Hy. Edw. 



18'81. Hy. Edw., Papilio, I, 20, Lygranthcecia. 



1883. Smith, Trans. Am. Eut. Soc., x. 229, Schinia separata. 



HABITAT. Oregon. 



A type specimen is in the Edwards collection, while a very fine 

 series is in the British Museum. A study of the latter shows that the 

 species is perfectly distinct from separata and that my reference in 

 1882 was hasty and based on insufficient material. The specimen in 

 Mr. Edwards's collection really gives no adequate idea of the species. 



S. brucei Smith.* 



1891. Smith, Trans. Am. Ent. Soc., xvin, 125, Schinia. 

 HABITAT. Colorado, South Park, and Denver. 

 Types are in the National Museum and in the Rutgers College 



collection.

1852. Gn., Spec. Gen., Noct., n, 185, Anthaeda. 



1857. Wlk., C. B. Mus., Het., xn, 694, Anthceda. 



1864. Grt., Proc. Ent. Soc. Phil., n, 343, pi. vi, f. 6, Anthceda. 



1873. Grt., Bull. Buff. Soc. Nat. Sci., I, 120, HellotMs. 



1874. Grt., Bull. Buff. Soc. Nat. Sci., n, 34, Melicleptria. 



1875. Grt., Check List Noctuidse, 18, Lygranthcecia. 

 1883. Smith, Trans. Am. Ent. Soc., X, 230, Schinia. 



HABITAT. Massachusetts to Florida, west to the Mississippi; Ala 

 bam a in September. 

 The type is in the British Museum.

1891. Smith, Trans. Am. Ent. Soc., xvin, 124, pr. syn. 



HABITAT. Texas, April and June; Colorado. 



Dr. Harvey's type is in the British Museum, while typical specimens 

 of Mr. Edwards' species are in his collection. They are alike specifi- 

 cally, as I have already stated. 



S. saturata Grt.* 



1874. Grt., Bull. Buff. Soc. Nat. Sci., n, 74, Lygranthcecia. 

 1883. Smith, Trans. Am. Ent. Soc., X, 230, Schinia.
