APPENDIX. 



I take this ojiportnnity of rcctilying some errors which iijipeared in my iia]ier 

 in Ihe NoviTATKS Zoological, Vol. 1., No. 'i. 



At ]). 3S0 appears a new genus, Archaeopseustes, for Abraxas amplifieata VVII<. 

 This must be erased. The species belongs to the genus Terpna H.8., com]irised in 

 the subfamily Pseudoterpninac. 



At p. 30!) the projiosed new generic name Calliirapti'ri/x must give place to 

 Walker's Riitiaria, Oat. xxiii., j). S27, tlie tyjie of which genus, arijcntiliiti'a, in the 

 Oxlbrd Museum, I have lately been aide to examine. 



At p. 414 the new genus Oiuoj/lii/scta must yield to Potent Moore. The ty])e of 

 P. maryinata Moore, from Teuasserim, has hitherto been unique ; but by comparison 

 with some specimens now in the British Museum, from Mergui, it is shown to be 

 very closely allied to, and generically, if not specifically, identical with triseriariaK.S., 

 which I made the type of Omop]iyscta. 



At p. 416 the type oi Po<jono/ri/(/ia is given as Abr'axas khasiana Swinhoe. This 

 was owing to an erroneous identification. Swinhoe's A. khasiana is merely a synonym 

 of Butler's Abraxas eleyans, which I made the type of the genus Dilophodes. The 

 real type of Poyonopyyia is a species hitherto undescribed, for which 1 propose the 

 name nigralhata, and here insert the description : — 



Pog'onopygia nigralbata sp. nov. 



Forewinys wliite, markings blackish ; basal area occupied by seven or eight 

 irregular-sized blotches ; central area containing a large oblong blotch on the inner
