Beyond the fact that the type of E. deleta is rubbed 

 and the fringes are wanting, which last fact gives a 

 different outHne to the wings, I cannot see how it is to 

 be separated from 0. decliva. 



EpiGLiEA, Grote. 

 I behave E. pastillicans, Morr., to be a brightly coloured 

 form of E. tremula, Harv. ; the markings are identical 

 in the two insects.

The type of /. suhvexa is larger, and has the outer line 

 rather more incurved than in any of our other examples ; 

 but in both of these characters we have a gradation to 

 the smallest of European specimens. In a series of six 

 specimens taken by Grote in Kenfrew Co., Canada, there 

 is one example smaller than some of those from Europe. 

 The ground colour of the wings is most inconstant, one 

 of the six specimens above referred to being darker and 

 greyer than the greyest European specimens, the latter 

 being of the same tint as the type of /. suhvexa. Grote 

 himself says of the latter, " It is possible that the 

 southern form is only a variety of Pleonectusa" ; and I 

 am satisfied that the latter is identical with I. suhtusa.
