HABITAT. United States, east of Eocky Mountains; Canada; Brit- 

 ish Columbia. Northern States, July to September. 



The three species last given are represented in the British Museum 

 by good series, and the separation is in accord with my identifications 

 in the National Museum. The types of ducens Wlk., jaculifera Gn., 

 and Jierilis Grt., are in the English collection, that of radiata Harris, 

 is in the collection of the Boston Society of Natural History, and that of 

 tricosa is in Dr. Liutner's collection. 



F. pectinicornis Smith.* 

 1890. Smith, Bull. U. S. Nat. Mus., No. 38, 114, Feltia. 



HABITAT. Texas, March and October. 

 The types are in the U. S. National Museum. 



F. evanidalis Grt. 

 1878. Grt., Bull. Geol. Surv., iv, 172, Agrotis. 



HABITAT. California. 



The type in the British Museum is a good species, which I had not 

 before seen. The antennae are shortly pectinated, much as in the pre- 

 ceding, from which, however, it differs by greater size and brighter 

 colors, which are more nearly like siibgothica than any other.

I do not know where the type is at present.

HABITAT. United States, east of Eocky Mountains; Northern States

Mr. Morrison's type is in the Tepper collection; that of Dr. Eiley is 

 in the National Museum. In the British Museum is a specimen labeled 

 morrisoniana "type," in Mr. Grote's handwriting. It is correctly de- 

 termined and came from Dr. Eiley.
