A New Catocala Form 



By Wm. Barnes M. D. and J. McDunnough, Ph. D. 

 Catocala hermia form vesta form. nov. 

 In the fall of 1916 we received a batch of eggs from 

 Mr. T. Spaulding which had been laid by a single ? 

 captured in Deer Creek, Provo Canon, Utah and which 

 at the time we took to be a specimen of a race of 

 briseis which has recently been described under the 

 name minerva as a new species by Cassino (1917, 

 Lepidopterist I, 63), his type specimen belonging to 

 a pale form closely approaching alhida Beut. from 

 Manitoba.
