The Harris si)ecimeiis are in the collection of the Boston society, num- 

 bered 32. They are undoubtedly what Mr. Grotehas named clarcscens 

 in American collections, but which Mr. Butler shows is not Guenee's 

 s])e('ies. As Mr. Grote's determination is incorrect, the species is 

 nameless and Br. Harris's name becomes available.
