312 THE CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST. 



noctuids is not confined to Hubner. The form, the discal spots on 

 primaries, the simple antennae make the view plausible, so that, not so 

 long ago, Moeschler is of this opinion. I may remark that I have never 

 seen so pale a specimen oi timais as that figured by Hubner. The pretty 

 pink of the Spanish moth (which comes up to us in the Middle States from 

 the South, blown against our light houses along the coast) has all faded 

 out on Hubner's plate. Are there two species as suspected by Guenise 

 from alcoholic larvae ? My first specimen of timais was given to me by 

 my old friend, Mr. W. H. Edwards, and I fell a victim to its attractions 

 to the extent of redescribing it. If I had then conceived my theory of the 

 migration of moths during the summer, following the gulf stream and the 

 prevalent direction of the wind, from south to north, I should not have 

 made my mistake. While Dr. Thaxter shows that titnais breeds in 

 Florida, it is still a tropical Gortynid form and contrasts with the rest of 

 our North American Noctuidse, which generally favour the European type. 



NOTES ON SOME SOUTH-WESTERN HEMIPTERA. 



BY C. H. TYLER TOWNSEND, LAS CRUCES, NEW MEXICO. 



In the Canadian Entomologist, 1892, pp. 193-197, the writer pub- 

 lished some notes on New Mexico Heteroptera and Homoptera. The 

 notes on the fifty-three species in the present paper are additional and 

 complete the list, so far as the names can be obtained, of all the Hemip- 

 tera collected by the writer in New Mexico and Arizona. 



In seven cases there are no localities attached to the species. This 

 is because the numbers of those species were returned to me in such 

 confusion by Dr. Skinner that they can not be connected with the data 

 referring to them. 



It should be mentioned that the Homoptera and Heteroptera are not 

 separated in the list, but are arranged together in alphabetical order.
