but far removed from G/auchta. Incopriarius is represented in the Hulst 

 coll. at N. B. by a species which Dr. Dyar has forestalled me in describing 

 under the name of ^r;'^z^^r/rt (Jour. N. Y. Ent. Soc, Vol. 15, p. 106). 

 The type of /;^^^/r/^;7W is identical with, so far as I can discern, the 

 mutilated, badly-worn type m the Hulst coll. at N. B., representing 

 Aethyctera iineata, Hulst. Mr. Grossbeck refers to this species (loc. cit., 

 page 341) as being represented by a false type, but this was a " slip of the 

 pen." Perhaps Dr. Barnes, from whom Hulst's specimens came, may 

 have better ones, upon which a definite opinion might be based. Inci- 

 dentally, I would call attention to the persistent misspelling of Morrison's 

 name, robiginosus, by all writers, from Packard, in 1876, to the present 

 time. The species of Toi-ftos, Mor,, should stand : 



scolopacinaria, Guen. 



= robiginosus, Mor. 

 = abjectarius, Hulst. 



cinctarius, Hulst. 



BOOK NOTICES. 



Fauna Hawaiiensis, or the Zoology of the Sandwich (Hawaiian) Isles, 

 Volume I, Part V, Microlepidoptera. By the Right Hon. Lord 

 Walsingham : The University Press, Cambridge, 1907. (Price eighty 

 shillings.) 



This long-promised part of the Fauna Hawaiiensis^ dealing with the 

 Microlepidoptera of the islands, by Lord Walsingham, is now before the 

 writer in a highly-prized complimentary copy. 



Together with Edw. Meyrick's Macrolepidoptera (1899), i^ forms a 

 monumental work on the Lepidopterous fauna of the Sandwich Isles, well 

 worthy of the learned authors. The two volumes afford a comprehensive 

 and authoritative key to the knowledge of this fauna, and they will ever 

 remain indispensable classics, even though further collecting will undoubt- 

 edly add considerably to the number of species known from the islands, 

 especially among the Micros.* 



*A material increase may particularly be expected in the more minute 

 Tineidae, which are scantily represented in the present work ; thus, only two 

 species of Gracilaria are described, and the i^enus Lithocolletis is totally absent. 

 In U. S. National Museum is a series of Lithocolletis (near Bethuniella, Cham- 

 bers), bred in Hawaii from Lantana^ supposed to have been introduced from 

 Mexico.
