336) to Acidalia (^Cosymbia) pannaria Gn. and illustrated on plate 

 10, fig. 53. Hulst's genus erected for this species is apparently a 

 good one, so the species will hereafter be known as Scelolophia pur- 

 pxirissata Grt. with /ormosa Hulst as a synonym. 



Eois pallida Hulst (Trans. Am. Ent. Soc, xxiii, 306, 1896). 



I think, with a series of specimens, this will be found to be a 

 light form of Eois nimbicolor Hulst, in which the transverse lines 

 are somewhat more denticulate ; but until more material is available 

 for study it will probably be best to keep them as separate species. 

 Pallida was described from Texas, but there is a specimen from 

 Middlesex County, N. J., in the collection as nimbicolor that is pre- 

 cisely like it. 



Eois voliicrata Hulst (Ent. Am., ii, 185, 1887). 



This species, described from a single specimen, is a male of Xxjtrota 

 hepaticaria Gn, (Spec. Gen., Phal., i, 471, 1857), and clearly shows 

 the characteristics of the genus which Hulst erected for Guenee's 

 species. 



Cyniatophora sericeata Hulst. 



In the Ent. News, xviii, 149, 1 made this a synonym of Selidosema 

 correllatum Hulst, and in the same journal and volume, p. 295, Dr. 

 Dyar casts a doubt upon this conclusion on the strength of a third 

 type in the National Museum. Upon request, Dr. Dyar has kindly 

 sent me a specimen which agrees with the type at Washington, and 

 from this it is immediately seen that it is a distinct species and that 

 of the types of sericeata at New Brunswick, one which I had taken 

 for a much abraded example of correllatum is conspecific with it. 

 The other type, however, is eorrellatuvi. Sericeata by the character 

 of the anteunse is referable to Selidosema. S. albescens Gross, is 

 distinct from correllatum as Dr. Dyar now admits. 



.(Ethyclera Hulst (Trans. Am. Ent. Soc, xxiii, 339, 1896). 



The type electa Hulst is a specimen of Deilinea falcataria Pack., 

 and thus both the species and genus fall. Lineata Hulst (Can. 

 Ent., XXX, 192, 1892) listed with electa under yEthijctera is repre- 

 sented in the Hulst collection by a false type. Just where the true 

 type 0^ lineata is located and to which if any present genus it is 

 referable I am at this moment unable to say.
