 (1865). 



Two damaged specimens. 



There is a fragment of a species which looks like my ^S'. 

 aJtivdlans, and numbered (136), but I cannot l)e sure of its 

 identification, it may perhaps not even belong to the family.

Scoparia iiniiuscvlalls, Walker, Lep. Het. Suppl. iv, p. 1503 

 (1865). 



Two fragments. I mucli regret the condition of these speci- 

 mens as the species appears to be rare, we have nmch need of 

 specimeiis in good condition.
