 T. dalmani are the same species. 



This species has been taken in Maine, New Hampshire, Massa- 

 chusetts, New York, Ottawa, Canada, England, Holland and 

 Germany. It has been reared from the eggs of Notolophus antiqua 

 and Hemerocampa leucostigma in U. S. Crawford records this 

 species as having been reared from the eggs of Orgyia antiqua in 

 England, Holland and Ottawa, Canada.

The Genus Copablepharon was erected by Harvey ('78) for a
