by Lord Walsingham (pi. 62, fig. 8), and agrees with my types 

 from Professor Fernald." 



" 'Flavofasciana.'--This moth is figured under the same 

 name by Humphreys (W. and H., Vol. ii, pi. 99, fig. 16), with 

 the statement 'From Mr. Stone's collection, now in the cabi- 

 net of Mr. Bentley.' From Mr. Bentley's cabinet it passed to 

 Mr. Shepherd's. It is Sericoris instnitana Clemens, from 

 North America, and agrees with types from Prof. Fernald, 

 sent as Exartcma fasciatana." 



The following synonomy is arranged to the best of my 

 ability, but with the limitations of one unfamiliar with the class 

 of work; I sincerely hope that should there be errors, they 

 will be promptly corrected.

Mr. Barrett says of this species "It is Sericoris instnitana 

 Clem, from North America, and agrees with types from Prof. 

 Fernald sent as Exartema fasciatana." In Westwood's British 

 Moths, both editions, the figures are more like instnitana, 

 while the rather full description is undoubtedly of this species 

 rather than fasciatana, hence I prefer to follow Barrett as Fer- 

 nald did not seem able to separate the two species, though 

 belonging to different genera; hence flavofasciana \Yc-si\v. will 

 take the place of instrutana Clem.
