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

 collection are like the Walker species.

HABITAT. Canada to Middle and Central States ; New York in July. 



Walker's type is in the British Museum and is like the pcranyulalits 

 of the Grote collection and of American collections generally. Other 

 specimens associated with the type tjy Walker are deceptalis. As a 

 matter of fact, I believe that the two names refer to forms of one species 

 only.

Walker's type is in the British Museum; the Grote type is in the 

 National Museum from the Meske collection. Specimens of rcllifcra 

 from the Grote collection made actual comparison possible. 



B. lentiginosa Grt. * 

 1873. Grt., Bull. Buff. Soc. Nat. Sci., I, 87, Meghypena. 



HABITAT. New York; Northern States. 



The type is with Dr. Lintuer. I believe that this is merely a form 

 of the preceding.
