moderately but regularly arched, outer border scarcely rounded out- 

 wards ; liind-wing outer border rounded. Above : both wings brown, 

 as in iV^. Bceotia, with a white common belt ; fore-wing with the middle 

 of the outer border bluisli-grey, and a sub-marginal row of bluish-grey 

 semi-circles. Hind-wing outer border edged with white, and in many 

 examples with a bluish-grey line on the inside of the white ; the bluish- 

 grey lines are not in regular semi-oval form as in N. Bodotia, but are 

 elongated and triangular in form. In some examples tlie brown 

 borders, especially of the hind-wings, have more or less of a reddish 

 tinge. 



Panama. Also on the Amazons, rather common in many localities. 



Note. — The new LyceBnidcp of this collection will be named and figured by Mr. 

 Hewitson in a monograph of the family now in progress. The new Hespet idee 

 will also shortly be published with figures. A nnmber of species received during 

 the progress of the foregoing article will be described in a supplement in a 

 futnre number of this Magazine. 



ON THE SYNONYMY OP CICADA ANGLICA, (LEACH). 

 BY DR. HAGEN. 



Under the name of Cicada Anglica, of Leach, the only English 

 species of the genus Cicada, is mentioned by the Eev. T. A. Marshall 

 at p. 154 of this Magazine ; also at p. 171 it is called C. Anglica. 



When in England, in the year 1857, I carefully compared the 

 types of G. Anglica in the collection of Curtis, Stephens, and Westwood, 

 and can confidently pronounce that it is identical with the montana of 

 Scopoli. In the Stettin Entomologische Zeitung for 1856, at page 74, 

 I have carefully described the species, and rectified the synonymy ; in 

 most cases, after an examination of the typical specimens. This species 

 occurs likewise in Prussia, Sweden, and even at St. Petersburg. 



In the Stettin Ent. Zeitung for 185S, p. 135, 1 gave a notice res- 

 pecting the types of Cicada Jicematodes in the Linnean Collection ; 

 they are from Barbary, and are very different from the hcematodes of 

 Scopoli, which occurs in southern Europe. It is evidently to the latter 

 species that the Rev. T. A. Marshall alludes as having met with it in the 

 south of France and in Corsica. Since Scopoli's name, G. hcematodes, 

 is older than the Linnean, which occurs in the 12th Edition of the 

 Systema Naturae, the hcematodes of Linne wUl have to be re-named. 



The date of Scopoli's name Cicada mo?itana is 1772 ; Leach's C. 

 Anglica in Samouelle's Compendium, p. 447, pi. 5, fig. 2, is 1819. The 

 figures given by Curtis, Samouclle, INewport (in Todd's Cyclopaedia of 

 Anatomy, f. 353, p. 8G8), and Westwood (Introduction to the Modern 

 Classification of Insects, II., fig. 114), all belong to C. montana, a species 

 not known to Linne.
