*This specimen was examined by Dr. .T. B. Smith of New Brunswick, N. J., who 

 writes regarding it, " I cannot make it the same as P. acronyctoides, Walker, as that 

 stands in my collection. If we had a female it might help us out; but as between the 

 males I must place it with portlandia, unlikely as it seems." P. portlandia occurs 

 in the Pacific States, whereas P. acronyctoides is an Atlantic States species.
