R. tripla Grt. 



Habitat. — Arizona; New Mexico. 



The type is in the Neuma^gen collection and is not a Rivnla, proba- 

 bly not even a Deltoid. The neuration is normally noctuidous, not 

 aberrant as in Bivula, but otherwise I have had no ojiportunity of 

 trying to ascertain its true position. 1 have found no descrii)tion of the 

 species and j^erhaps this is a mere collection name which should not 

 be criticised.
