Our good riiciul Walker still influences our catalogues. Bellurn was 

 described about 200 pages before Arzama in the same volume, and as 

 the types of BeUnra and Arzama are tlie same spccnes, tlie former will 

 have to be used, even though it was phiced in the Jiombycid;e and was 

 said to be related to Datana.

The ty])es of Walker's species are in the British Museum, which also 

 contains sjiecimens of Mr. Grote's species not marked type. Where 

 the original types are I can not say. Prof. Comstock may have that of 

 nichi>i(>j>i/(/a. ^^'alker's species are exactly alike save as to degree of 

 impert'ection, and I can not make anything different out of riilnijica. 

 The characters given by Mr. Grote foi- mclanopytja are very feeble and 

 are evanescent in character, a fact which he has realized to the extent 

 of citing- it a variety in his revised list of LSOO.
