 Walker's description (d' 1). larnn'ia applies in lli<' main to this s])eeies, 

 except tiiat the e.\|)ression "under side (of liire wind's) with an elongated 

 hlaekisli spot" is scarcely apjilicalde, ihou^h this may rel'er to the liiini 

 dusky shade noticed in on<' of my specimens: at all events, it is not the 

 B. Ian-aria ol' Guenct;. 



In a specimen from Texas, the discal ringlet of the hind wing tonclies 

 the outer line, which is much more angulated than usual. 



Larva and pupa. — Body rather thick, smooth, not humiied ; reddish- 

 brown al)ove and straw-yellow beneath; head yellowish, spotted with l)rown. 

 Pupa (pi. 13, tig. \ba) of the usual conical form, reddish-l)rown. Food- 

 [daiit, an ^c«c/rt-like genus. — (Described from Al)i)ot's MS. drawing.) 



Fig. 21, of plate 13, represents a caterpillar drawn ])y Abbot. On the 

 same plate is a moth closely allied to C. humaria. It is probably the larva 

 of some Ennomonine genus. The body is cylindrical, ramit()rm ; head 

 rather small, with a fungus-like dorsal hump just betbre the middle of the 

 body and. a smaller terminal one. Head, hnmjjs, feet, and anal segn)cnt

 Fore wings with the inner line broad on the costa, angulated below, ami 

 thence going obliquely, not much curved, to the inner edge, bordered within 

 with a pale-brown shade. Discal ringlet broader than in B. humaria and
