Habitat. — Middle, soutliern, and central States, July and Anj^ust. 



A typical specimen of Gueii(;e's species and all ot Walker's types are 

 in the British Museum. I did not see that of M. divergens ; but the 

 others are as referred by Messrs. Grote and Robinson and I have no 

 doubt this is also correctly placed in the synonymy.

dorsilutea Wlk. 

 1857. Wlk., C. B. Mus., Het., xi, 695, Anthwda. 



Habitat. — Pennsylvania; Georgia; Florida. 



The type of dorsilutea is the same as the Uiberculum of the Grote 

 collection, which I believe to be correctly identified. The fore tibife 

 have one inner and two outer clavvs. In appearance the species resem- 

 bles lynx; but the median and s. t. lines are more ragged, median space 

 narrower, ordinary spots not distinct; black border of secondaries broad. 

 Walker's species is from "locality unknown."
