ADDENDA 107. COTTID^ — URANIDEA. 953 



Page 694. Instead of Uranidea spilota read : 

 1054. V. ricei (Nelson) J. & G. 



Erase the synonym " Uranidea spilota Cope," etc. JJ. spilota is prob- 

 ably a distinct species, allied to U. cognata. 



Page 695. After Uranidea semiscabra add : 

 1056 (c). U. rhotEaea Rosa Smith.

Page 697. Under Uranidea richardsoni add another "variety" — var. 

 Jcumlicni (Hoy). 



The original type of U. Icumlieni Hoj^, lately re-examined by us, has 

 palatine teeth, aud the ventrals I, 4. It represents, in our present 

 view, a variety of U. richardsoni, possibly distinguishable Irom var. 

 hairdi by the rather higher spinous dorsal and rather larger eye aud 

 mouth. Tlie description of " U. franldini," on page 099, belongs to U. 

 ku7nlieni, being taken from Hoy's type. 



Page 698. To the account of Uranidea cognata may be added: Mouth 

 larger than in Uranidea gohio; head 3 in length without caudal; its 

 width equal to its length and half more than its height; Jaws equal; 

 vent a little nearer snout than insertion of caudal ; second dorsal twice 

 as long as first, separated from it by a si)ace less than a Hue; anal be- 

 ginning opposite sixth ray of dorsal; caudal 6 in total length. Under 

 surface silvery gray, minutely dotted; on the sides the dots are mingled 

 with crowded irregular blotches of dark brown; back and top of head 

 nearly uniibrm dark brown, few pale spots ai)pearing. L. 4 inches.
