CATALOGUE OF NOCTUID.E SMITH. 105 



HAHITAT. Canada in August; Northern and Eastern States; Michi- 

 gan; Missouri; Colorado; Manitou in June; New York in .Inly. 



Mr. (irote has curiously mistaken Walker's species in referring it to 

 Hadena xufinsca Morr. It does hear a casual resemblance to Mr. Mor- 

 rison's species; hut the generic characters should have prevented the 

 association. However, Mr. Morrison does furnish an exact synonym, 

 tor ilhtta is almost precisely like einereomaculata, the type of which I 

 have seen. The types of Mr. ( i rote's species are in the British M useum. 

 Guenee's type is in the Oberthiir collection at Rennes. 



Mr. Butler has placed a somewhat faintly marked specimen, labeled 

 turi'ix by Mr. Grote, under xaucia, and has published them as identical.

HABITAT. California; Colorado, Glenwood Springs, August to 

 October. 



Types are in the National Museum and in Mr. Neumcegen's collection. 

 It is more than likely that my species will prove a somewhat marked 

 form of iclahoensia, connected with the type by numerous intergrades; 

 but I am not ready to make this reference positively at present. 



C. westermamii Stgr. 

 1857. Stgr., Stett. Ent. Zeit., 1857, 303, Agrotis. 



HABITAT. Labrador ; Greenland. 



The types are in the Berliner Museum. They indicate a somewhat 

 variable species, tending toward the obeli scot flea type; but all agreeing 

 with the essential characters given in the li Revision."

HABITAT. East of the Rocky Mountains, north of Georgia; New 

 Mexico; South Park, Colorado, in September; New York and Massa- 

 chusetts in August. 



Guenee's type is in the British Museum. It is probable that two 

 species are confused under this name ; it needs further material to de- 

 cide finally.
