GENUS PH^GORISTA. 



Boisdiival admits two species, Ar/aristoides, Boisd., and 

 Leucomelas, H. S. (The latter is JEgoccra Mcenas, Walk, 

 nee. H. S.) To this genus we may add Bala, Moore, 

 Catoealina, Walk., and Transiens, Walk., {=Catoc,aloides, 

 Walk.). The last species, originally described by Walker 

 as a EiLsemia, is one of those mentioned by Boisdiival 

 under that genus as unknown to him. 



GENUS EGYBOLIS. 



Boisduval thinks that his E. Natalii may be distinct from 

 Vaillantina, Stoll. Lastly, he adds that a damaged speci- 

 men from California, formerly described by him as A/jarista 

 guttata, proves to be a Callimorplia allied to Donmiula 

 & Hera. 



It is scarcely probable that we have succeeded in indi- 

 cating all the gaps in this paper, which in spite of its 

 deficiences, will be very useful to those who ai'e working 

 at the groups of which it treats. It is only to be regretted 

 that Dr. Boisduval should have omitted to consult the 

 English, German, and American Ijibliographical works, 

 which must be accessible in the Paris libraries, and an 

 acquaintance with which would have greatly increased the 

 value of his work ; and our chief object in the present 

 notice is to indicate to any Entomologist who uses the 

 paper the amount of additional matter which it is necessary 

 for him to consult. (No notice has been taken, however, 

 of the allied genera published by Walker and others ; but 

 only of those mentioneil by Boisduval, as the bounds of the 

 Agaristidfc. are still very uncertain.)
