388 BULLETIN 44, UNITED STATES NATIONAL MUSEUM. 



Types are in the collection American Entomological Society and in 

 the British Museum. This seems to me only a larger and paler form 

 of rctitrictaliN. The palpal characters pointed out by Mr. Grote are 

 evanescent, I believe; but it will require further study to state this 



positively.

Walker's type is in the British Museum. Types of the Grote species 

 are in the collection of the American Entomological Society and in the 

 British Museum. From a specimen named by Walker in the D'Urban 

 collection, Mr. Grote referred this name to Blcptina caradrinalis (Can. 

 Ent., ix, 29). It is probable that this is only a small, dark form of 

 sobrialu (restrictalis).

Geyer's species was described from Java; but represents our common 

 form. Types of the Grote and Walker species are i n the British Museum, 

 and a type of bclfragei is also in the collection of the American Ento- 

 mological Society.

HABITAT. Canada in August; Middle States; Colorado in August 

 and September. 



Walker's type is in the British Museum, while Mr. Grote's is in the 

 collection of the American Entomological Society. It is likely that 

 alu-talis will come to this species as a variety.
