P. Denso. Celerio hippopha6s. 33 
Je dois noter iei, que jai vu des individus de 
cette espece venant du Caucase. qui, par leur colo- 
ration plus fone&ee, semblent &tre bien voisins de 
’Hippophaös Esp. Je crois m&me qu’il n’est pas 
impossible, qu'il y ait parent& specifique entre ces 
deux Deilephila.“

p-361,Deilephilainsidiosa, Erschoff. — On recently 
turning over Erschofis Lepidoptera of 
(published as part of Fedtschenkos Reise) I found : 
note in Russian, at the foot of p. 24, of which the 
following is the substance: — „Eversmann'’s colleetion 
contains a speeimen labelled D. hippophaös Esp.. 
from the Syr Daria.. D. hippophaös is not found 
in the Russian Empire, and the example in question, 
trough elosely allied, differs in several points. The 
colour of the thorax and of the forewings above is 
much paler, more like that of D. zygophylli, 
p.362 Ochs. A tuft from the shoulder-stripe projects a 
little on the outside about the middle of the wing, as 
in D.hippophaös. Except the dark part near the 
costa, it is scarcely marked. Should this be a new 
species, as is very probable, Erschoff proposes for 
it the name D. insidiosa. 
I have seen no later notice of this inseet; but 
the indications, though brief, appear to be suffieient 
to identify it, if it should be re-discevered; and now 
that the inseets of Central Asia are so much studied, 
I thougt that I might, perhaps, prevent its being 
re-deseribed as new, by calling special attention to 
it, especially as it was not included in the Zoologi- 
cal Record for 1874.“
