TYPES IN THE NEUMOEGEN COLLECTION.-II. 



WITH A FEW NOTES THEREON. 



By Dr. RODRIGUES OTTOLENGUI. 



Since writing the first instalment of this paper a " type" which 

 was not in the cabinets when I looked through the Sphingidae, 

 has been put in its place by the curator, Mr. Doll. This is 

 Smerinthus interfaunus $. Long Island, Doll. 



This is a hybrid from a male Astylus with a female Ocellata. 

 (Europe) 



ARCTIID/E. 



Crocota intermedia var. parvula 9 Neum. and Dyar. Colorado, Bruce.* 



Arctia intermedia var. stretchii tf. Grote. 



Arctia anna 9 Grote. New York. 



Arctia nevadensis var. mormonica $ (cf 9 $ ) Neum. Colorado, Bruce. 



Arctia nevadensis var. siilphurica rT Neum. Arizona, Doll. 



Arctia nevadensis var. elongata 9 Stretch. Washington Territory. 



In the " Revision of the Bombyces" by Neumoegen & Dyar, 

 mormonica is cited as a synonym of A. proximo, Guerin, while 

 nevadensis is made a variety of blakei, with sulphnrica, another 

 variety of the same, elongata and ochracea being synonyms of 

 sulphnrica. The "type" of ochracea is not in the collection. 



Arctia favorita ?'-f Neum. Colorado, Bruce. 

 Arctia dieckii ^ Neum. British Columbia. 



Arctia dieckii, in the " Revision" is made a synonym of deter- 

 minata Neum. which is cited as a var. of williamsii. I did not 

 find the "type" of dcfet minata, though the label may have been 

 transferred to the " type" of dieckii. 



* I think it proper to credit Mr. Bruce, for discovering new species, as well as Morrison 

 and Doll. R. O.
