Walker's type is in the British Museum, and so is the type of angu- 

 lata Grt. Mr. Butler has already shown that Mr. Grote did not cor- 

 rectly identify Walker's species, and re-described it *as angulata. In 

 the Museum at Berlin are specimens from Brazil marked cilisca Gn., 

 (Noct. II, 179), which I think will fall in with this species. The place 

 assigned the genus here expresses my conviction that the genus is 

 Orthosiid rather than Heliothid, though it may find closer allies on 

 future study.
