 mis. Sole species, and therefore type. 



18G7. lb., Reise Novara, 486: corrects the name to Acrophthalmia, 

 and it is so used by Kirby. 



18. ACTIXOTE. 



1816. Hubn., Verz. 27: Thalia, Gea (Eptea), Euryta (Eurita),

 1848. Doubl., Gen. Diurn. Lep. 142: retains it for Thalia and seven 



others, placed in two sections. 

 1869. Bull., Cat. Fabr. Lep. 128 : employs it for Thalia only. 



Nevertheless Thalia cannot be designated as the type (see Calornis) ; 

 nor can Amosis, because it was placed in Alesa in 18i7. Euryta may 

 be taken as the type.

 tioned by Hubner and Ilerrich-Schaeffer, excepting the
