(iuenee's tyjies aic probably with M. Obertliiir. The Wallccr types 

 are in the British Museum. They agree with each other and with the 

 specimens identitied by Mr. Grote as discoloralis. Walker did not really 

 recognize (Tuenee's genus and described a nutnber of sjiecies l)eh»nging 

 t(» it under Henninia and Hj/p<n<i. Curiously enough, nearly iill of 

 ^^';lIker's Deltoids can be recognized from the description. 1 tried to 

 recognize the sj^ecies Ix'fore I expe<'ted to have the chance to study 

 tlicin aut(»i)tic;illy, and in every case my identification pr<>ved correct. 

 V ndev fallaciaJis, Walker's first specimen from whi<;h the description 

 was drawn is discoloralifi, while the others are hrrrirostralis.

Walker's type is in the British Museum. 



Types of the Grote species are in the collection of the xVmerican

 compare the types of both si)ecies.

I have not seen the type. It was proltably in the collection at Phil-

species.
