Epipsilia okakensis Pack. (PI. XIII, Fig. 5). 



An examination of the type 9 in Cambridge proves that this 

 species is the same as cinerea Staud. which name has priority ; in a 

 long series before us from Okak, Labrador great variability in color 

 and markings is shown, but the proximity of the t. p. and s. t. lines 

 is a good distinguishing mark of the species as compared with tecta 

 Hbn. (carnea Auct.) which also occurs sparingly in the same region 

 and can be readily separated by the genitalia as pointed out by A. 

 Dampf (Berl. Ent. Zeitschr, 1909, LIV. 128) ; roosta Sm. described 

 from Alaska proves to be a form of tecta, rather brighter colored than 

 any we have seen from Labrador. We give figures of both tecta (PI. 

 XIII, Fig. 4) and cinerea which should illustrate the points of dis- 

 tinction. 



Mesogona olivata Harv. 



Through the kindness of Sir Geo. Hampson, who has examined 

 the type in the British Museum at our request we are able to state 

 that the tibiae of this species are spined and that it falls into the genus 

 Mesogona (Pseudoglaea), the name olivata having priority over blanda 

 Grt.

SCOTOGRAMMA INCONCINNA Sm. 



According to the type in the National Museum Hampson's figure 

 (Cat Phal. Brit. Mus. PI. 80, Fig. 1) is entirely erroneous. Our 

 notes say that the species is rather closely related to oregonica in 

 maculation, the hind-wings showing a distinctly paler inner area and 

 broad darker outer border. We think it should be removed from 

 Lasionycta and placed again in Scotogramma as employed by Hamp- 

 son.
