212 PROCEEDINGS OF THE CALIFORNIA 
T. p., with two deep teeth, above the middle, directed towards the apex, and 
surmounted by a blackish shade. Sub-terminal line grayish, with regular 
teeth. Reniform, small, brown. Sub-reniform, almost obsolete, connected 
with a paler shade, which touches the costa. 
Secondaries, yellowish scarlet, color of Unzjuga. Marginal band, moderate, 
rather deeply toothed towards abdominal margin. Mesial, rather narrow, 
slightly constricted in the middle, and terminating in a point about one- 
eighth of an inch from margin. The under side of secondaries has an un- 
usually large proportion of red. 
Expanse of wings, 2.60 inch.

Mr. Strecker expresses some doubts as to the identity of my specimen with 
Dr. Behr’s species, (Lepid. Rhop. et Heter., page 100) but, upon again care- 
fully comparing them, I am convinced that they are alike, and in this opinion 
I am sustained by Dr. Behr. The species resembies Unijuga in the color of 
the secondaries, but it is much smaller, and is very widely separate in the 
ornamentation of the superior wings, which are browner and more confused 
than those of its Atlantic relative. 
Catocala Marmorata. W.H. Edwards. (Proc. Ent. Soc. Phil., Vol. 2, 1864.) 
‘* Expands 4 inches. 
‘Head and thorax, light gray. Abdomen, wanting. 
‘Upper surface. Primaries, pale gray and white, more or less powdered 
with dark gray or blackish atoms, and bear a superficial resemblance to the 
European (. Frazini. Transverse lines, black. Beyond the t. p. line, a 
brown band, succeeded outwardly by another, which is much narrower, and 
pure white. Reniform, dark, and shape not well defined. Sub-reniform, 
joined by a line to, not formed by, a sinus of the t. p. line. Fringe, white. 
‘« Secondaries, scarlet, of a lovely shade. Mesial band, narrowed in the 
‘middle, and extends almost to the abdominal margin. Fringe, white. 
‘‘ Habitation, Yreka,, Cal.’-—W. H. Epwanrps, loc. cit. 
Of this grand insect, apparently the largest of all known American species, 
I am entirely ignorant, save through the above description and Mr. Strecker’s 
admirable illustration. 
Catocala Stretchiti. Behr. (Trans. Am. Ent. Soc., 1870.) 
Primaries, silver gray, very distinctly mottled with black irrorations. 
Lines, all faint. T.a., whitish, and with very small teeth, running its 
length almost straight and without deviation. T. p. also nearly straight, 
and with even indentations. Reniform, blackish, with a double ring, and 
surrounded by a dark cloud. Sub-reniform, whitish, with a fawn-colored 
tinge; rather small but very distinct. Sub-terminal line runs parallel to the 
t. p. 
Secondaries, yellowish red, paler thanin Parta. Mesial band, very narrow, 
scarcely constricted in the middle, and turning into a very distinct hook. 
about two-tenths of an inch from the abdominal margin. Marginal band nar-
