 98. Scotogramma trifolii farkasii (Treitsch.) 



Noclua farhisii Treitschke, .S'cAwicM. Eiirnp. vol. x. Part 2. p. 74 (18.3.5) (Europe). 



This is the Algerian race, and must be treated as a good subspecies, for while it 

 occurs in Europe as an aberration among typical trifolii it is the constant race in 

 N. Africa. 



Faroult sent 40 specimens, dated May, September, October, and November 

 1912-1913. 



99. Scotogramma cinnamomina Rothsch. 



Scotogramma cimvimomiiia Rothschild, Nop. Znnl. vol. x.k. p. 121. No. 30 (1913) (Nza-ben-Rzig). 



Sir George Hampson says this is synonymous with trifolii Rott., but I now 

 have a large series and 1 consider it distinct. 



Faroult sent from Guelt-es-Stel 23 specimens from the months of May, June, 

 September, October, and November 1912-1013.

lliidena ireitsrl-ei Boisduval, Attn. Snc. Ltitn. Pnrh 1827. p. HI pi. G f. 2 (South France). 



This species is put as a synonym of trifolii by Sir George Hampson, but is a 

 good species. 



I received from Faroult, dated May, June, September, October, November, 

 1912-1913, 12 specimens.
