THE CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST 83 



two vicina. It may here be remarked that mixtures of this kind 

 were not infrequent in Smith's own collection, when I saw it in 

 1910. 



Mamestra vicina Grt. 



Barathra curialis Sm. Mixed with Mamestra lubens, to which 

 it bears rather a close resemblance. 



Dargida procinctus Grt. 



Morrisonia evicta Grt. Standing as sectilis, which was prob- 

 ably Smith's error. The var. vomerina was correctly named. 

 Holland. PI. XXIV, pp. 13, 14, are of evicta, not sectilis, and fig. 

 14 is var. vomerina. 



XyJomiges dolosa Grt. 



Cardepia {Mamestra) niiitata Dod. One specimen, but with 

 trifolii and chunka wrongly associated with it, as mentioned under 

 those headings. Sir George Hampson has critically examined my 

 species, and tells me that it belongs to the genus Cardepia. 



Nephelodes emmedonia Cram. (syn. minians Gn.) Dark 

 specimens stood as violans Gn., and pale ones as tertialis Sm. The 

 latter name is a pure synonym of emmedonia. Violans is a viola- 

 ceous form of it. 



Leucania unipiincta Harr. 



Leucania luteopallens Sm. ( =pallens Linn., probably). The 

 species stood as minorata Sm., which is scarcely recognizable as a 

 variety. 



Leucania albilinea Hbn., (syn. ohscurior Sm.) 



Leucania dia Grt. Standing as megadia Sm., which is a varia- 

 tion possessing a black basal streak, an evanescent character. 



Leucania niuUilinea Walk. 



Leucania commoides Gn. 



Leucania phragmitidicola Gn. 



Orthodes crenulata Butl. 



Orthodes cynica Gn. 



Orthodes vecors Gn. Two badly worn specimens, one of them 

 dated July 5th, 1907. 



Himella contrahens Walk. The form here seems darker and 

 more even than infidelis Dyar, and to be almost typical contrahens, 

 though I am not satisfied as to their distinctness. 



Crocigrapha normani Grt. One female, May 30th, 1912.
