Geometra mimicata Walk, to this genus. G. redaria may be included by 

 Dr. Packard among his Texan material of in'daria, but I do not think it

ENTOMOLOGICAL CLUB OF THE AMERICAN ASSOCIATION 

 FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF SCIENCE. 



The annual meeting of this Club will be held at Nashville, Tenn., on 

 Tuesday, the 28th of August, at 3 p. m. The regular meetings of the 

 Association will commence on the following day. The pleasures con- 

 nected with the annual re-union of Entomologists during the meetings of 

 the Club will, we doubt not, attract to Nashville many of the "brethren 

 of the net." The citizens of Nashville are offering private hospitality to 

 all the members ot the Association who will accept it, and have also made 

 arrangements for hotel accommodations and railway tickets at reduced 

 rates. We hope to hear of a large attendance.
