Chambers' Corrections to his paper on the Illustrations of 



the Neuration of the wings of American Tineidse.* 



By W'm. Beutexmullek. 



The following corrections were written in pencil by the late V. T. 

 Chambers on the margins of the plates of a copy of the above named 

 paper which he presented to Mr. Henry Edwards, to whom I am in- 

 debted for allowing me to make use of these unpublished notes. 

 F/g. 4. — Hind wing ought to have dotted line through the cell. 

 Fig. J. — Omits furcation of apical branch of fore wing. — In the hind 

 wing the submedian is too short and the costal and apical half 

 of the subcostal are omitted. 

 Fig. 7. — Fore wing ought to have one more median branch. 

 Fig. p. — Has one more marginal vein than it ought to have. 

 Fig. 10. — Hind wing wants one more branch t)f the subcostal — the ist 



branch. 

 Fig. I J. — Hind wing wants one median branch. 

 Fig. 21. — Has one median marginal branch too many in the one wing 



and one too few subcosto-marginal branches, and the hind 



wing lacks the dotted line through the disc.
