North American insect I have seen that at all resembles it/' Walsingham also 

 indicates a similar belief (Trans. Am. Ent. Soc , X., 187).

* Argyroleipia pomoriana and sylvaticana Fitch (Salem Pnss, July 12, 1853) are 

 not synonyms of Ypsolophus pometellus Harris, as indicated by Felr, in his Index 

 to Lintner's Writings, p. 600; for Fitch stated soon afterward (Jour. N. Y. State 

 Agr. Soc, IV., 36) that the insects to which he applied these names were both 

 very different moths from the palmer- worm moth. Were these names synony- 

 mous they would have priority of a week over Harris' name.
