Halisidota semirufa, Walker, List Lepid. Ins. Brit. Mus. pt. vii. 
p. 1708 (1856) (Para). 
933,42 ? bred; 2 2 2 caught (cocoon rough ham-

Zatrephes paradisea, Butler, Ill. Lepid. Het. Brit. Mus, pt. i. p. 52, 
pl. xvii. fig. 11 (1877) (Rio Yutak). 
In ‘ Novitates Zoologice,’ xvi. p. 33, I unfortunately iden- 
tified Walker’s Halisidota discalis with the insect afterwards 
described by Sir George Hampson as Azatrephes argyrotis, 
quite failing to understand that in reality Butler’s paradisea 
was identical with Walker’s discalis, and therefore must fall 
as a syhonym.,
