CATALOGUE OF NOCTUID^E - SMITH. 285 



The type is in the British Museum and is a species I had not before 

 seen. The tibial armature can not be made out as the legs are curled 

 under in the specimen. It resembles arcifn-a, but is smaller and with- 



out median lines.

HABITAT. Florida. 



The type is in the British Museum. It looks more like Melicleptria 

 than the specimen retained by Mr. Thaxter. Mr. Grote's genus is based, 

 apparently, on the characters I pointed out, but if the species is re- 

 moved from Schinia, it must go to Pseudotamila.

The type is with Mr. Strecker. The anterior tibiie have an inner and 

 four outer claws, and the species is thus related to tertia. 



By a regretable oversight the three last-named species were omitted 

 from my list of Lepidoptera. The accident happened because in my 

 Revision they were among the unknown species, and, after seeing the 

 types and annotating my copy, I failed to enter them in the list of 

 species where they belonged.
