From a specimen froni which the moth had been raised h\- W 

 Schaus, Esq., Jr. 



Cautethia Grotei, Ily. Edwards. Pupa. 



Same slia])e as Hdinaix, cylindrical tapcriny; s^radually to the posterior end. 

 Pale pitchy, shining. Head, thorax and win;.^-ca^es impunctate. Abdominal seg- 

 ments roui^hly and densely punctured on anterior half. Spiracles pitchy black. Cre- 

 master pitchy black, rough at its hase, carried out to a sharp point, which is bifurcate. 

 The rough punctures of abdominal segments are continued on ths lower side. 

 Length 25 mm. Width 8 mm. 



From a specimen given to me by my friend Dr. Wittfeld, Indian 

 River, Fhi. 



Amphonyx Antaeus, Drury. Pupa. 



Pitchy— the head, thoia.x arrl wing-cases lighter in color. Tongue-case about 

 40 mm. long, gracefully curved, and swollen very much at its extremity, which rests 

 against the chest. It is roughly grooved over its whole surface, except the swollen 

 tip, which is quite smooth. On its npp^ir side is a double ridge, slightly raised, and 

 when viewed sideways, the ridge; abovj the grooves have the appearance of blunt 

 tee'.h. The head is much narrower than the thorax, and is swollen between the eyes. 

 Thorax rugosely wrinkled, at the base of thj wings are roughened, elevated, serrate 

 processes. The bases of the wing-cases are slightly swollen. The wing-shape is 

 very clearly defined, and the cases are streaked slightly with darker brown along the 

 course of the veins. Base of the abdomen has two roughened processes like those at 

 the base of the wing-covers — but broader and larger each way. At the anterior edge 

 of ihe abdominal segments are bands of similar roughened spaces extending trans- 

 versely across the dorsal region nearly as far as the spiracles, which are black, with 

 a deep narrow slit. The underside of the abdomen is smooth. Each segment above 

 is marked also with transverse ridges. Cremaster black, obtusely pointed, ridged, 

 rough. 



Length from base of tongue-case 90 mm. Width across middle of abdomen 25 mm.

 Schaus, Esq., Jr. 



Phlegethontius Rusticus, Cram. Pupa. 



Very like that of ^. /4/?A«M, but differing in many important particulars. The 

 tongue-case is pro]'>ortionateIy much longer, alike in structure, but the grooves are 

 deeper, and the serratures consequently longer and sharper. The abdominal seg- 

 ments want the curiously roughened spaces so remarkable in the preceeding species. 

 In this they are roughly punctate in front, closely punctate over the rest of the sur- 

 face. The anal segment is smooth, with a deep groove above, wrinkled beneath, 

 while the cremaster is furnished with two small points at the sides. The wing-cases 

 ' thorax are concolorous with the abdomen, while the tongue-case is less curved

^'*, v'lmdrical, last two posterior segments, conically and abruptly smaller. Color 

 '' vn drab, with black markings. Head gradually tapering, eyes and base of
