THE CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST. 91 



462. E. iniestinata, Gn. — Fairly common. June to middle of July. 



463. E. vitalbata, SchifT. — Common. End May to middle of July. 

 'I'his species, widely distributed in Europe, was first recorded as North 

 American from Calgary. It occurs in Manitoba. I have it from the 

 Red n.er River, a hundred miles north-east of Calgary ; so it seems to 

 be a prairie rather than a mountain species in this hemisphere. In 

 Europe the larva feeds on Clematis vitalba, the "Traveller's Joy," whence 

 its name, but from local iiies where I h.ave somevimes found it here it is 

 almost certain that it does nor, at any rate, confine itself exclusively to 

 Clematis in Alberta. 



464. Euchoica albovittata, Gn. — Common, though apparently some- 

 what local in woods, and rarely met with outside them. End June and 

 July. 



465. E. cretaceata, Pack. — Fairly common. In this district I have 

 found It more commonly on the prairies than in the hills. In the Kootenai 

 list Dr. Dyar seems to imply that there it occurs most frequently at the 

 higher altitudes. I have met with it very sparingly at Laggan, the highest- 

 up capture being at Agnes Lake (6.850 ft.). End June and July. 



466. Calocalpe (Hydria) undulata, Linn. — Not common. End 

 June to middle Aug. 



467. Etisiroma testata, Linn. — Fairly common. At light, and 

 occasionally at treacle. August. 



468. E. propulsata, Walk., = Packardata, Lint., = poptilata, Pack., 

 non. Linn. — Rather rare. July 20th to Aug. 13th. The synonymy is Mr. 

 Taylor's, who says : " I don't believe we have the real populata in* 

 America. Dr. Dyar's (Hulst's) synonymy under this name is all wrong.'' 

 In the Kootenai list Dr. Dyar suggests that European populata, Linn , 

 and Packardata, Lint., are probably distinct, but records both forms from 

 British Columbia. Mr. Taylor, however, who has compared a go )d series 

 of the European /^////iz/^, claims that Dr. Dyar's ^' ivwt populata'' from 

 B. C. is quite a difterent insect, and hitherto undescribed. 



469. E. destinata, Moeschl. — I have taken five or six specimens in 

 the mountains. On Sulphur Mt., Banff, 4.500 to 6,000 feet, and at 

 Laggin up to about the same altitude. The Laggan specimens are a little 

 the smaller. August 7th to 13th, 1900. Mr. Taylor says: "These appear 

 to be variations of what Dr. Dyar decides to be Eustroma destinata. It 

 differs considerably from the desthiata of the prairies.'' He refers a 

 Calgary male doubtfully to the same species.
