There is strong doubt as to whether Fabricius' descriptions of 

 Lycaon and Herse were meant to apply to the species since 

 designated as Celtis and Clytun by Bdl. as there is disagree- 

 ment in many particulars ; besides it would appear that the 

 said descriptions of Fabricius were not taken from real in- 

 sects, but from the pictures of insects, in which case all 

 claims to priority for his names would fall ; and, at any rate, 

 as the species have been known by Bdl.'s names for over 

 forty years, there can be nothing gained by suppressing them 

 in favor of those of Fabricius. 



Fabricius' Herse I really believe to be identical with Idyja, 

 Hub., a Cuban species.
