Hauitat. — Canada; Uuited States generally; New York in Septem- 

 ber; Texas in ISlovniber; California and Colorado in October. 



The type is in the British Museum. Messrs; Grote and Kobiuson 

 in 1809 and .Mr. Butler iu 1889 referred Agrotis incallida Wlk., as a 

 synonym of the above. The type is a badly rubbed specimen; but it 

 is undoubtedly Radena [Liiperina) passer Gn., and not 2^ Agrotis at all.

 has been examined by me, but I have no memorandum as to its loca- 

 tion. I think it is in the Cand)ridge Museum. The type of agilis is with
