  AUTOGRAPHA 
  Hbn. 
  

  

  This 
  genus 
  contains 
  most 
  of 
  the 
  species 
  referred 
  to 
  "Plusia" 
  in 
  the 
  

   previous 
  edition; 
  the 
  others 
  are 
  distributed 
  in 
  the 
  four 
  genera 
  immdi- 
  

   ately 
  preceding. 
  Many 
  of 
  the 
  moths 
  fly 
  during 
  the 
  day, 
  and 
  are 
  recog- 
  

   nizable 
  by 
  angular 
  silvery 
  marks 
  or 
  blotches 
  on 
  the 
  fore-wings. 
  The 
  

   larvffi 
  are 
  semi-loopers, 
  and 
  some 
  of 
  them 
  are 
  of 
  economic 
  importance.
