tioned in every such case. Among these was a new Chrysophanus, taken at 

 the foot of the precipitous ice-mass between Gray's Peak and Irwin's Peak, 

 down which a perilous descent had just been made. A description of this 

 new diurnal, by Wm. H. Edwards, will be found at the end of the list. The 

 new Halesidota was given to me by my young friend Geo. I. Cannon, of 

 Idaho Springs, who captured it at Boulder, Col. Prof. Grote has furnished 

 descriptions of two of the new species of Noetuidce, for publication in con- 

 nection with this list. These are Gorlyna juvenilis and Hadena discors. To 

 these new descriptions is added a reprint of descriptions of all other new 

 species obtained by the expedition. Acknowledgments are hereby made to 

 Messrs. Grote, Edwards, and Packard, for valuable favors in determining 

 unknown species.
