R. tripla Grt. 



HABITAT. Arizona; New Mexico. 



The type is in the Neumo?gen collection and is not a Rivula, proba- 

 bly not even a Deltoid. The neuration is normally noctuidous, not 

 aberrant as in Rivula, but otherwise I have had no opportunity of 

 trying to ascertain its true position. 1 have found no description of the 

 species and perhaps this is a mere collection name which should not 

 be criticised.
