 X. subcitrinalis Hulst. 



1886. Hulst, Trans. Am. Ent. Soc., xm, 157, Orobwna. 

 1891. Smith, List Lepidoptera, 56, Xanthoptera. 



HABITAT. Arizona. 



The type is in the Rutgers College collection. From superficial 

 characters the species belongs here. 1 have not tried to compare it 

 with described forms; but it is none of those represented in the British 

 Museum. 



Genus SPRAGUEIA Grt. 

 1875. Grt., Check List Noctuidse, 25. 



S. on agrus Gn.* 



1852. Gn., Spec. Gen., Noct., n, 205, pi. x, f. 2, Agrophlla. 



1857. Wlk., C. B. Mus., Het., xu, 774, AgropMla. 



1858. H. Sch. Lep. Ex., f. 209, Agrophila. 



1874. Grt., Bull. Buff. Soc. Nat. Sci., n, 37, an var. leo; Erotyla. 

 1879. Grt., Can. Ent., xi, 232, an spec. dist. 



HABITAT. Southern States; Florida; Texas. 



The type is in the Boisduval collection, now with M. Oberthur, at 

 Kennes. In the British Museum there is a specimen apparently named 

 by Guenee, but not the type. It is like the species labeled onagrus in 

 our collections. 



S. leo Gii.* 



1852. Gn., Spec. Gen., Noct., n, 205, Agropliila. 

 1857. Wlk., C. B. Mus., Het., xn, 773, Agrophila. 

 1879. Grt., Can. Ent., xi, 231, Spragueia. 



HABITAT. With the preceding. 



The type is also from the Boisduval collection now with M. Oberthiir. 

 In the British Museum there is a specimen apparently labeled by 

 Guen6e, and this is undoubtedly a variety of the preceding. Mr. Grote 

 cites Herrich -Schjefter's figure of onagrus in error to this species; but 1 

 am not sure if he is correct. At all events further study is required to 



settle the matter. 



S. magiiifica Grt. 







1882. Grt., Papilio, u, 183, Spragueia. 



HABITAT. Arizona. 



The type is in Mr. J^eumoegen's collection. 



S. plumbifimbriata Grt.* 



1877. Grt., Can. Eiit., IX, 68, Spragueia. 

 1879. Grt., Can. Ent., xi, 233, Spragueia. 



HABITAT. Texas in April, May, and July. 

 The type is in the British Museum.
