56 ENTOMOLOGICAL NEWS. [Feb., '09 



Westwood figured the species that we have known as alban- 

 iana Walk., so that obliquana will replace this name, although 

 some doubt remains as to whether the author is Fabricius or 

 Stephens. 



In addition to the four species above, for which we are en- 

 tirely indebted to Mr. Barrett, for straightening out the syn- 

 onomy, I make record of the following notes on other possibly 

 overlooked names of American Tortricids, so that we may have 

 a reference something less than a century old. 



From the English translation of Linne, entitled,

 LARGED by the IMPROVEMENT and DISCOVERIES of LATTER NAT-
