Mamestra Contenta, WalJc. 

 This is Hadena Devastatrix^ Brace. 



Mamestra Ordinaria, Walh. 

 This is Hadena Devastatrlx, Brace. 



Mamestra Unicolor, WaJh. 

 This is Agi'otls Clandestina, Harris. 



Mamestra Insulsa, Wall: 



The specimen, from Canada, is evidently an 

 Agrotis, allied to Repentls, and unknown to me. 



Condica Palpalis, Wall-. 



This species, from Jamaica, is Hadena Confede- 

 rata, which ranges up the coast to New York as a 

 visitant. I am now inclined to place the species in 

 Ferigea, a closely allied genus to Hadena. The 

 species varies greatly, and, as will be seen, is 

 Guenee's P. Infellx, according to the B. Mus. Col- 

 lection. 



Mamestra Vetusta, Walh. 



The specimen is a rubbed, grey Agrotis, too poor, 

 I think, to make out specitically. 



Mamestra Declarata, Walk. 



The specimens are Agrotids, allied to A. Cam- 

 pestris. 



Mamestra Binotata, WaVc 



The specimen belongs to Hadena Curvata. It is 

 rubbed and very dark, with the pale brown reni- 

 form contrasting.
