and maculation, including the absence of the anal ocellate mark 

 on secondaries. Juanita was described from Texas. 



586. Amphion nessus Cram. — I have a single specimen from 

 High River, from Mr. Baird, rather worn, and possibly a migrant. 



587. Sphinx luscitiosa Clem. — A female is in my collection, 

 taken west of Didsbury, Alta., by a Mr. C. G. Garrett. 



588. 5. pinastri Linn. — Barnes and McDunnough, in their 

 Sphingid paper quoted above, state that Dr. Barnes has two 

 specimens of this species, one labelled California, the other Waghorn, 

 Alberta. Presuming the latter label to be correct, the capture 

 was perhaps made by Mr. P. B. Gregson. 



According to Smith's Monograph of Sphingidae (Trans. Am. 

 Ent. Soc. XV, pp. 49-241, 1888) Strecker described this species 

 under the name saniptri, but subsequently referred it as synonymous 

 with the European pinastri. His types were a male from "Canada," 

 received from Mr. Reakirt, and a female taken by himself on a 

 fence near some pine woods at Reading, Pa. Holland states that 

 Strecker took the species at Reading on one or two occasions. 

 It is listed by Dyar as a doubtful U. S. species. Judging from the 

 British figures I have seen, it should not easily be confused with 

 anything e!se North American. 



589. Turuptiana permaculata Pack. — Red Deer River, north- 

 east of Gleichen, July 1st, 1905, flying at dusk. I have four speci- 

 mens, exactly like Holland's figure. It did not appear to be by 

 any means rare, and indeed I was assured by local residents who 

 professed to recognize it that it was sometimes very abundant, 

 and I have been given the same report from the Lethbridge district, 

 though, of course, such records are not authentic. I have certainly 

 received and named the species from other points in the western 

 provinces, but cannot at present find the references. 



590. Diachrisia virginica Fabr. — Edmonton, June 3rd, 1910. 

 (F. S. Carr.) 



591. Enchcetias oregonensis Stretch. — Didsbury, June 27th, 

 1907. (C. G. Garrett.) A single male is in my collection, agreeing 

 with Holland's figure, and with the description given in Hampson 

 and in Neumoegen and Dyar's "Bombyces." 



592. Panthea virginaria Grt. — Dr. Barnes told me several 

 years ago that Grote's Biston virginarins (No. 3866, Dyar Cat.)
