'* Valparaiso, August and September ; a day flier." — 

 T. E. 



It is possible tbat this may be the Phalcena ceraria of 

 Molina (' Saggio sulla storia naturale del Chili,' p. 147, 

 1782), but the description, were it correct, is too short for 

 positive identification ; it is simply this, " B. elinguis,

 varies in difi'erent species which, in other respects, seem 

 to be nearly allied ; it would at present be premature to
