PSYCHE.

These forms I have taken in coitti. 

 I have never met with a J trisiis nor a 

 9 coryli. 



Tehimona unicolor=Telamona fasci- 

 ata Fitch. 9 (?). 



These forms always occur together 

 and of the large nnmber I have exam- 

 ined the former are always females and 

 the latter males. On the strength of 

 this I have placed them as a single spe- 

 cies and am confident that ftiture obser- 

 vations will justify me in so doing. The 

 case is the same with Smilia castaneae 

 Fitch, and Meinbracis inortiata Say.^ 



Tragopa dorsalis=Acutalis id. 



Uroxiphus caryiE=Microcentrus id. 



Described by Harris : 



Cicada canicularis=var. of Cicada 



tibicen Linn. (auct. VVoodw.) 

 Membracis ainpelopsidis=Telamona 



id. 



1 The following is the correct synonymy of this genus 

 so far ;is I can make out : 

 Telamona reclivata P'itch. 

 monticola Fab. 

 Huerci Fitcli. 

 ampelopsidis Harr. 

 cisfi liarr. (List.) 

 cyrtops Fairm. 

 concava Fitch. 



oninta Emmons. 

 coryli Fitch rf . 



trisiis Fitch 5 . 

 fasciata Fitch J. 

 nnicolor Fitch 9 • 

 *mexicana Still. 

 *excelsa Fairm. 

 *pyramidata Uhler. 



Membracis univittatar=Thelia id. 

 Tettigonia vitis =: Typhlocyba id. 



(auct. VVoodw.) 

 Tettigonia rosie = Typhlocyba id. 



(auct. Woodw.) 

 Tettigonia fabaj = Typhlocyba id. 



(auct. Woodw.) 

 The Centrotus aciiminatus of Fabri- 

 cius has been placed by Say, Harris and 

 others as the 9 of his Membracis bi- 

 ?naculata. I have however both sexes 

 of both of these species ; the females 

 scarcely differ from the males in form. 

 Our described species of this genus are . 

 Thelia bimaculata Fab. 

 uhleri Stal. 

 *turriculata Emmons, 

 c rata eg i Fitch, 

 univittata Harr. 

 acuminata Fab. 

 Carynota Fitch. Dr. Stfd is mis- 

 taken in placing this genus as a svnonyni 

 of Ophidei'ina Fairm. It is quite 

 widely separated from that genus but is 

 very near his Optilete of which Thelia 

 porphyrea Fairm., a species unknown 

 to me, is the type. It is possible that 

 Stal was unacquainted with the Mem- 

 bracis mera Say, which is properly the 

 type of Fitch's genus, and hence was 

 deceived by Dr. Fitch's erroneous refer- 

 ence of Mevibracis arqiiata Say to his 

 Carynota.
