1889. Butler, Tr;ms. Ent. Soc. Lond., 1889, SSl,=Chei-a birivia. 



Habitat. — Colorado. 



The type is in the Graef collection. A specimen in the British 

 JMuseiini is somewhat more maculate; but seems to be the same. Mr. 

 Butler refers it to Chera birivia, Hbn., and I can not myself And any 

 obvious differences between them. Birivia is an alpine species, and I 

 am not ready to believe, without the most critical comparison, that the 

 two are identical, though superficially tliey seem alike. I have there- 

 fore retained Mr. CIrote's name for the present. If Chera has as tyi)e 

 this spe(;ies, it will have to replace Carneades. Mr. Grote's si)ecimen 

 has no locality.

 choris t Sniitli.

 described in my revision under the term choris.
