These two specimens agree exactly with the descrip- 

 tion (Barrett, vol. iv., page 201), and the figure 

 (Plate 159, fig. 2c) of var. albifusa Grote : orbicular 

 stigma large and conspicuously whitish ; lower half 

 of reniform stigma dark grey ; claviform stigma 

 broad and also dark grey ; a pale oblique band from 

 the orbicular stigma joining a second from the apex 

 at the anal angle. Barrett's statement that, with the 

 exception of a single specimen taken at Portland in 

 1888, ' this peculiar variety does not seem to have 

 been observed in the eastern hemisphere,' is ap- 

 parently incorrect.
