THE CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST. 27 



Chorizagrotis terrealis Grt. 



The cf type with Grote's handwritten type label affixed is in 

 the collection; we have not been able to match it; Hampson's figure 

 from a drawing of a so-called "type" in the Neumoegen collection 

 is poor and too contrasted ; according to our notes the species is a 

 dark indeterminate form with basal dash and slight dark shading 

 between the usual spots; the s. t. line is almost obsolete. 



Euxoa verticalis Grt. 



The specimen in the collection cannot be considered a type, 

 as it bears the label "Hot Springs, New Mex.," whereas the type 

 locality is Idaho Spgs., Colo.; it is, however, typical. The same 

 remarks would apply to Richia parentalis Grt. and decipiens Grt.; 

 the true types of all three species are in the British Museum. 



Geometridae. 



EmplcEcia inconstans Geyer. 



Under this heading is included the type specimen of cephisaria 

 Grt.; the type of inconstans Geyer has, of course, long been lost, 

 and the error is due to Prof. Snow's peculiar system of labelling. 



Deilinia perpallidaria Grt. 



This cannot be considered the type, which was a cf specimen 

 from New Mexico (Snow), whereas the specimen in the Snow 

 Collection, bearing a written label " Thamnonoma perpaUidaiia, 

 n. sp.," is from Idaho Spgs., Colo., and a 9 ; besides this, it does 

 not agree with Grote's description, and is a Macaria species, I 

 think. Where the true type is I do not know. 



Lychnosea helveolaria Hulst. 



The type under this heading is that of aulularia Grt., which 

 seems correctly placed as a synonym of helveolaria\ 

 Hyperitis indiscretata Hy. Edw. 



The 9 type of this species, labelled " Tetrads indiscretata, 

 type" by Hy. Edwards himself, proves to be a Sabulodes and the 

 same species as that described by Strecker as Metanema vanusaria 

 from a single cf, indiscretata taking priority over Strecker's name.
