type labels of litaria and electa have become interchanged in the Hulst 

 Collection as the specimen labelled 'type electa' agrees with the de- 

 scription of litaria and vice versa. Grossbeck is probably correct in 

 sinking electa to falcataria Pack. We figure what we consider to be 

 the true litaria from Truckee, Calif. 



D. indurata Dyar. 



The type in the National Museum is from Placer Co., Calif. ; it 

 is undoubtedly the same species as celataria Hist, and almost an exact 

 match of the type of Lozogramma merccdulata Stkr. according to a 

 specimen compared for us with the type by the late J. H. Grossbeck. 



D. hulsti Dyar. (Pi. XIII, Fig. 13). 



Dr. Dyar, in his very brief characterization of Catopyrrha hulsti 

 (Proc. Wash. Ent. Soc. VI, 226) has neglected to state the locality 

 and sex of his type specimen. The type in the National Museum is 

 a S from Los Angeles Co., Calif., and is the same species as that 

 described later by Grossbeck as Deilinia lenitaria, a very pardonable 

 error on the part of the latter author in view of the above facts. We 

 figure a $ cotype of lenitaria. 



D. HELENA Hist. 



This species, described under Diastictis from a single 9 proves 

 to be merely a rather aberrant form of liberaria Wlk. {lintneraria 

 Pack.), very similar to the 9 figured by Packard on Plate IX, Fig. 

 37 of the Monograph; this specimen is still in the Packard Collection, 

 but the other types of lintneraria we could not find at Cambridge. 



D. BEHRENSARIA Hist. 



The species was described from a number of specimens from 

 California, Nevada, and Arizona ; the 'types', 2 $ 's, in the Hulst Col- 

 lection are labelled respectively 'Col.' and 'Rossland' and are therefore 

 spurious although possibly the first may be an error for 'Cal.'. A type 

 from Soda Spgs., Calif., is in the Neumoegen Collection and we pro- 

 pose to restrict the type to this specimen as the locality is one in which 

 Behrens did a good deal of collecting and we may therefore presume 

 the specimen was one of the type lot. 



Phasiane (Macaria) lapitaria Stkr. 



This proves to be a synonym of sublacteolata Hist.
