  I 
  may 
  he 
  wrong 
  in 
  desci-ihing 
  this 
  insect 
  as 
  the 
  female 
  of 
  H. 
  Riifinns, 
  Gr.-Sm. 
  The 
  speeimeu 
  

   is 
  much 
  rubbed 
  on 
  the 
  underside, 
  and 
  I 
  have 
  had 
  difficulty 
  in 
  comparing 
  the 
  spots 
  and 
  markings. 
  

   It 
  may 
  be 
  proved 
  hereafter 
  to 
  be 
  a 
  distinct 
  species.
