[CTKBIDAE. 



Mr. Oberthiir has followed the old-fasliionecl and exploded custom and 

 placed directly after the Arctiadae the genera Sarrothripus, Nycteola, and Earias 

 under the family heading as above. In order not to produce too serious a break 

 in the sequence in the present article, and to enable the easy comparison of Mr. 

 Oberthiir's Faune de Barbaric and my notes, I shall leave them here, but they 

 are emphatically Noctuidae and belong to the three subfamilies Stictopterinae, 

 Sarrothripinae, and Acontiatiae, wliich stand between the Erastrianae and 

 Eutelianae on the one hand and the Catocalinae on the other.]
