Note. — In NoviTATES Zoologicae, Vol. II. p. 82, I described a supposed new 

 South American moth as Adelotypa xanthobrunnea, referring the genus erected 

 for it, not without hesitation, to the Orthostixinae. The specimen was found in 

 a box of South American Geometi'idac ; and I was not at the time aware of the 

 close resemblance between certain South American Rhopalocera, in neuration as 

 well as superficial appearance, to some of the Geometridae, so that it never occurred 

 to me that I had to do with a species of Rhopalocera. Had the antennae been 

 entire, this fact would, of course, have been evident at once ; but being both broken 

 off short, I was induced to describe them as filiform. The insect is really a 

 specimen of Limonias bolena Butler. I have to thank Mr. Schaus for calling my 

 attention to the mistake.
