INIr. Walker could liardly have chosen a less appropriate naiue 

 for this species : in pul)lishing descriptions of so many Lepidoptera 

 from X<irris' and other collections, nearly all witliout localities, 

 this author unnecessarily burdened the synomyiny with scores of 

 names, the species referable to which will most of them prol)ably 

 never be cognate.
