Mr. Kirliy has made a l)IniKler iii uniting T. fegetis (Cram.) to T. lii/pibris 

 (Linn). 



T. fei/etis (Cram.) is coiifincil to the isliunl of Jamiiica, and is a vi'r_v good 

 s|iecies. 



BoisdnvaFs T. lactuosas and T. feyem appear to me to be species not yet 

 in English collections, and on^-ht to be looked into. 



ALEURON. 



Mr. Kirbv here pnts Ti/lix/natlms xniptor Feld. as synoiiyiii under ^1. ipl/is 

 (Walk.), while it really is a synonym of ^1. prominens (Walk.). .1. Imtleii Kirby 

 is not an Aleuroii, but a Hcmeroplanes. 



CALLIOMA. 



I find in a large collection of Sphiugidae from Aroa, Venezuela, :i tine series 

 of Calliomas, among which is a specimen of C lutescens Butl., described from 

 Hayti. C. IkaMus (Stoll) is pale and washed out compared with Brazilian and 

 Honduras specimens, but the C. parcae (Fabr.) are larger, darker, and much 

 more variegated than usual. C. plato (Fabr.) (= G. thorafes (Ilubn.)) are ver}- 

 bright green and gigantic in size. 



I have three species to describe : 



Callioma drucei sp. nov. 



Nearest to C. adalia Drnce. 



Foretcings bright olive green, instead of yellowish olive, as in ndnUa Druce, 

 crossed by two curved chocolate transverse lines in the centre, instead of three 

 straight ones, as in adalia. Near the base are also two instead of three 

 transverse lines. Stigma in the cell white instead of black, as in ailalia. The 

 black ])atch in adalia near the outer transvei'se line is missing in my new 

 species, and the apex is rounded off instead of hooked, as in adalia. 



Hindwiiigs in adalia brownish black, with an orange patch at the anal 

 angle, while in G. drucei Rothsch. they are plain blackish brown. 



Head, thorax, and abdomen bright olive, with a taint brown line down the 

 centre of abdomen. 



Underside in G. adalia, basal half of Ibrewings black, rest orange freckled 

 with red and with three transverse chestnut red lines halfway across the wings. 

 A deep red j^atch along the outer margin and a green apical blotch. Hind- 

 wings orange freckled with red, and with a broad red border. Across the centre 

 of the wings is a red band. In C. dnieei basal half of forewings dark grey ; 

 outer half green with two transverse black lines. Hindwings greenish yellow 

 freckled with black, with a broad green border and two transverse black lines. 



I'nderside of body in C. adalia \n\^ ; in G. drucei yellowish green. 



E.'cpause, 2'26 inches = 57'4 millim. 



Hah. Uio Demerara, British (Juiana. 



Callioma grisescens sp. nov. 

 Forewings pale lavender gre}', with a browner patch at the base. A large 

 white stigma in the cell and a dark brown transverse band just inside it. 

 Brown shadings all over the outer half of the wings, and a dark brown mark 

 ill the deep-cut apical angle.
