CATALOGUE OF NOCTUIDJE SMITH. 357 



P. viiiculum Gn.* 



1852. Gn., Spec. Gen., Noct., in, 304, Phurys. 

 1858. Wlk., C. B. Mus., Het., xiv, 1479, Phurys. 



HABITAT. Georgia; Florida; Southern States. 

 The type is with M. Oberthiir. 



P. herbarum Gn. 



1852. Gu., Spec. Gen., Noct., in, 303, PoaphUa.

Mfasciata Bates. 



1886. Bates, Can. Ent., xviii, 94, Celiplera. 

 1888. Bates, Can. Ent., xx, 100, = vinculum. 



HABITAT. Southern States. 



The type is with M. Oberthiir. In the British Museum are speci- 

 mens of both the above species, apparently named by Guenee and 

 agreeing with his description. They are closely allied; but in vinculum 

 the orbicular is present and the subterminal dotted line is distinct. 

 The vinculum of the Grote collection and of American collections gen- 

 erally is the herbarum of Guenee according to these specimens, and I 

 have accordingly cited bifasciata Bates to this species. ' Mr. Bates re- 

 ferred his species to vinculum on nay authority, and what I knew as 

 vinculum was what Mr. Grote had so named. 



P. ovalis Grt. 



1883. Grt., Papilio, in, 75, Phurys. 

 HABITAT. Arizona. 

 The type is with Mr. Neumo3gen.

dissocians Wlk. 

 1858. Wlk., C. B. Mus., Het., xiv, 1477, Poaphila. 



HABITAT. Southern States; New York. 



Guenees type is with M. Oberthiir. The specimens in the Grote 

 collection agree with those so named in the British Museum, apparently 

 by Guenee. The Walker types are both in the Museum and are like 

 the Grote specimens of lima: dissocians was described without locality.
