1496. Noctua unicolor Walker {clandestina Harris). 



June 5-29 ; July 12-September 24. Common. 

 1514. Noctua lubricans Guenee. 



August i6-October 2. Rare. 

 1558. Feltia subgothica Haworth. 



August 22-September 15. Common. 

 1540. Feltia jaculifera Guenee. 



August 2-September 8. Common. 

 1540a. Var. (?) herilis Grote. 



July 26-September 16. Common. This form is very constant and 

 classifying it as a variety of the preceding species appears erroneous to 

 the writer. 



1544. Feltia gladiaria Morrison. 



Pittsburgh, September 10-27 (Engel, Marloff ) ; New Brighton, 

 September 22-27 (Merrick). In common with many other inter- 

 esting moths this species may be collected at rest on the under side 

 of the leaves of swaying lower branches along the margin of the 

 woods during the evening hours. The writer has wondered on many 

 occasions when lure was plentifully provided why these moths sit 

 motionless for hours and were not tempted to partake of the repast 

 provided for them. No doubt many collectors have waited in vain 

 for their quarry and may find it profitable to investigate the branches 

 of the trees within reach during the autumn evenings.
