It is impossible to make out from this description if th& 

 species is a true Eumeta or not, so I leave it provisionally in 

 this genus. 



Mr. Junod states in his paper {' Bull, de la Soc. Ent. Belg.,'^ 

 vol. xxvii, 1899, p. 244) that Eumeta cervina is the same 

 as E. moddermanni. He seems to make this statement on 

 the authority of Dr.Heylaerts,but after comparing the descrip- 

 tions carefully, I must come to the conclusion that this is very 

 unlikely. Of course, the description is very short, but even 

 as it is, I do not think it applies in many respects to E. mod- 

 dermanni. The figures Junod gives (pi. iv, fig. 2a, h) of his 

 specimen and the bag undoubtedly refer to E. modder- 

 manni.

This species has to be placed in the genus Acanthopsyche.

I do not think that this species can be maintained, as the- 

 description is given of the larva and bag only. The descrip- 

 tion of the larva is much too general to make the identification 

 certain. The larva and bag do not appear to be sufficiently 

 characteristic. I think that the description of the imago onh^ 

 can be considered as valid and not that of eggs, larvag, oi' 

 pupas, still less of the structure made by the larva to live in.
