 with described forms j but it is none of those represented in the British 

 Museum.

Habitat. — Southern States j Florida; Texas. 



The type is in the Boisduval collection, now with M. Oberthiir, at 

 Kennes. In the British Museum there is a specimen apparently named 

 by Guenee, but not the type. It is like the si)ecies labeled onagrus in 

 our collections. 



S. leo Gu.^

 1857. Wlk., C. B. Mu8., Het., xii, 773, Aurophila. 

 1879. Grt., Can. Ent., xi, 231, Spragueia. 



Habitat. — With the preceding. 



The type is also from the Boisduval collection now with M. Oberthiir. 

 In the British Museum there is a specinaen apparently labeled by 

 Guenee, and this is undoubtedly a variety of the jireceding. Mr. Grote 

 cites HerrichSchaiifer's figure of onagrus in error to this species; but I 

 am not sure if he is correct. At all events further study is required to 

 settle the matter. 



S. magnifica Grt. 

 1882. Grt., Papilio, ii, 183, Sj)ragueia. 



Habitat. — Arizona. 



The type is in Mr. ^[eumoegen's collection.
