(Faun. Bor. Amer. IV, p. 301, pl. 4, fig. 4,) is probably identical 
with Drury’s species.

5. 8S. Juglandis. Smith—Abbot. 
Rosy gray, drab, or dusky brown ; wings indented on the outer 
edges; fore-wings with a dusky outer margin, a short brownish 
dash near the middle, and four transverse brown lines converging 
behind and enclosing a square dark brown spot adjacent to the 
middle of the inner margin; hind wings with two narrow trans- 
verse brown lines between two brownish bands; thorax witha 
central brown line; abdominal segments plaited and prominent 
at the sides. Expands from two and a quarter to three inches. 
The females are much larger and of a lighter brownish gray color 
than the males, with the square spot on the fore-wings less dis- 
tinct. Larva with the head small, and the body attenuated be- 
fore and behind, pale blue-green, with a long caudal horn, and 
seven oblique white bands on each side. When disturbed it 
makes a creaking noise by rubbing together the joints of the fore- 
part of its body. It eats the leaves of the black walnut, and en- 
ters the earth to undergo its transformations. Mr. Abbot (Ins. 
Georg. p. 57, pl. 29) has figured a remarkable variety of the larva, 
which is of a crimson color, with the fore-part of the body and 
the oblique bands yellow. Pupa deep chestnut-brown, granula- 
ted, with six little tubercles on the head-case, a transverse row of 
acuminated granules on the hinder edges of the abdominal seg- 
ments, the last three of which segments are flattened beneath and 
angularly dilated at the sides, with the tip broad, truncated, and 
externally bidentate. 
The antennz of the males of this species differ from those of 
the preceding in having the joints distinct to the naked eye; and 
each joint furnished with two teeth or short pectinations on each 
side. Mr. Doubleday presented me with specimens, from Flor- 
ida, which differ from our northern specimens only in being of a 
darker color.

6. S. modesta. H 
Drab-colored ; fore-wings scalloped, with a transverse dusky 
band before the middle ; hind-wings purplish-red in the middle, 
deeper red next to the base, and witha blackish spot near the 
anal angle. Expands four inches and one quarter.
