  Some 
  of 
  the 
  records 
  for 
  "lunifera" 
  probably 
  refer 
  to 
  

   this 
  species, 
  and 
  I 
  have 
  little 
  doubt 
  that 
  both 
  will 
  be 
  found 
  to 
  occur 
  

   throughout 
  the 
  State, 
  as 
  they 
  -are 
  generally 
  mixed 
  in 
  collections. 
  I 
  

   have 
  seen

  Elizabeth

  Recorded 
  from 
  Elizabeth; 
  but 
  it 
  is 
  very 
  doubt- 
  

   ful 
  whether 
  the 
  species 
  really 
  occurs 
  in 
  the 
  State. 
  I 
  have 
  seen 
  only 
  

   Georgia 
  and 
  Florida 
  examples 
  myself, 
  and 
  the 
  records 
  probably 
  

   refer 
  to 
  "lineosa" 
  or 
  "lunifera."

  No 
  actual 
  records,

  surely 
  to 
  be 
  found 
  in 
  the 
  State; 
  

   the 
  Elizabeth 
  record 
  of 
  last 
  edition 
  was 
  an 
  error.

  These 
  are 
  the 
  "snout-moths," 
  so 
  called 
  because 
  in 
  many 
  of 
  them 
  the 
  

   palpi 
  are 
  projected 
  straight 
  forward 
  into 
  a 
  beak, 
  though 
  sometimes 
  they 
  

   are 
  curved 
  sickle-like 
  over 
  the 
  head. 
  They 
  are 
  also 
  known 
  as 
  Deltoids 
  

   because 
  many 
  of 
  them, 
  when 
  at 
  rest, 
  have 
  the 
  outline 
  of 
  the 
  Greek 
  letter 
  

   J 
  (delta). 
  They 
  are 
  all 
  obscurely 
  colored 
  moths 
  of 
  small 
  or 
  moderate 
  

   size, 
  living 
  in 
  woods, 
  among 
  undergrowth 
  or 
  in 
  grassy 
  places. 
  The 
  larvae 
  

   of 
  some 
  species 
  lack 
  one 
  pair 
  of 
  abdominal 
  legs; 
  some 
  live 
  on 
  or 
  among
