Harris's tyi)e is in the Boston Society of Natural History, where I 

 have seen it. Spissa Gn., as determined by Walker, is the same spe- 

 cies; but the type is not in the Britisli Museum. Walker found this 

 species a veritable silver mine, seven hard shillings being its valne to 

 him, and as many of his tjqDes are in the Museum. l)r. Kiley's type is 

 in the National Museum. Mr. Morrison's is in the Tepper collection. 



The type of repent is is to be foniid in the collection of The American 

 Entomological Society. Inducta was described from Venezuela, giving 

 this species a very wide range.

The types, male and female, are in the Berlin Museum, and belong 

 nearest to pUniritiva in appearance. The wings are narrow, elongate in 

 the specimen, and of a rather pale gray. I have seen something very 

 like this from Colorado; but it is probably a different species.

The type is in the British Museum. I had misidentified this species 

 in my revision, and placed it next to scandem. It looks like a messoria 

 with the lines almost obliterate and with white secondaries. The or- 

 bicular is oval, black-ringed; the reniform incomplete. The median 

 shade line is obscure.
