53 ENTOMOLOGICAL NEWS. [September, 



iu the collection of Mr. Hill, of Albany, N. Y. The represen- 

 tatives of Mr. Hill say there is no such specimen now in the 

 collection. It is not in the British Museum, where Mr. Grote's 

 collection went. It is, therefore, lost, if it has not been acci- 

 dentally overlooked in the collection of Mr. Hill. 



On the authority of Mr. Hampson Larentia frigidaria Guen. 

 is a synonym of Psychophora sabinii Curt. 



Dr. Dyar writes me, Eudule unicolor Robs, is a synonym of 

 Eudulc conformis Walk. He also states that Eudule texana 

 French is not a Geometer, but a Lithosian and a synonym of 

 Pogara simplex Walk. 



Mr. Hampson writes me that Acidalia basipunctaria Walk, 

 is a Noctuid. He also thinks that A. violacearia Walk, is the 

 same as A. temnaria Guen. My own study of the types led 

 me to regard temnaria as a large ossularia Hubn. , but I con- 

 sidered violacearia as a good species. Mr. Hampson has, I 

 believe, determined Melanomma auricindaria Grt. to be a Noc- 

 tuid, and that Meskea dyspteraria is not a Geometer. 



Antepione depontanata Grt. is a synonym of Hypererytha 

 anasaria Walk. A misunderstanding of my British Museum 

 notes led me to make another, but an erroneous reference. 



Another erroneous statement of my notes led me to say Tcp- 

 hrhia monicaria Guen. was nearly identical with fantaria Hulst. 

 It should have been celataria Hulst. 



I have seen a $ of Apcecasia (Lozogramma ) bifilata Hulst, 

 and the species must in view of structure be removed to Dcili- 

 nia. My impression is that perpallidaria Grt. is the same spe- 

 cies, though I do not as yet feel certain enough to make the 

 reference. 



I have now a $ of Emiltis floridata Hulst, and it falls under 

 Eois Hubn. The species is one with Eois nimbicolor Hulst. 

 As there was an insect Eois floridata Pack., the name of Eois 

 Jloridata Hulst will be E. n/iubicolor Hulst. 



Mr. Bruce writes me that Tetrads trianguliferaria Pack. var. 

 notataria Hulst is the constant form of the species in Colorado. 

 He says he has taken abont 50 specimens, all of the notatarin 

 form, none like Packard's trianguliferaria. In view of this 

 we have good reason to regard notataria as a good species. 



I have heretofore put Glena (Tcp/ims/a) ff.\-tiiniria Hulst as
