Calleiiyo cariiiata {Walker). 

 "Rhome's Plantation ; June." 



A second species of the genus and agreeing with Mr. Walker's de- 

 scription. C. carinata presents a resemblance to Pachylia resumens 

 by the banded abdomen, and this is probably remembered by 

 Walker in his observation on the resemblances of Pachylia, page 

 189, 1. c. ; while the substance of Mr. Walker's remark has been 

 dissented from by Dr. Clemens. 



Philampelus Aucliemolus {Cramer). 

 " Para ; August ; found dead." 



The specimen is covered with a singular epiphytous growth, not 

 unlike Cramer's representation on Plate 267, A-B. 



Pachylia inornata {Clemens). 

 " Rhome's Plantation ; June." 



Metopsilus tersa {Linn). 

 " Rliome's Plantation ; August." 

 Not sejiarable from the United States and Cuban species. 



Pseudospliinx tetrio {Linn.). 

 " Santarem ; May." 



Argeus labruscae {Linn). 

 " Para ; August." 



At the late meeting of the American Association at Portland, 

 Prof. C. V. Eiley submitted a specimen of this species to me which 

 had been captured in Missouri. 



Amplionyx Antaeus {Drury). 

 " Rhome's Plantation ; August." 



The validity of Professor Poey's genus is impugned without 

 argument by Maasen, Stett. Ent. Zeit, S. 54, 1870. I consider it 

 incontestable. The record of Acherontia Styx or Acherontia Atro- 

 pos made on S. 55, 1. c, from Mexico, must be ascribed to an error 

 in the locality.
