Eubaphe lohula of Hiibner (Zutr. fig. 299, 300), is the type of quite 

 a different geuus from Crocota. On the other hand, judging simply 

 from Hiibner's plates, his E. aurantiaca is undoubtedly a true Crocota. 



The specimen of E. aurantiaca? Harr., which was collected at Lake 

 Superior by Professor Agassiz and is still preserved in the Museum of 

 Comparative Zoijlogy at Cambridge, though somewhat rubbed and un- 

 expanded, I should refer to C. ferruginosa Walker.
