 Platymerisfulvoniyra, Walk. Cat. Ilet. vii. p. 117. n. 10 (1873).

This species appears to have been overlooked in the 

 enumeration of Lethierry and Seveiin.

 Spintf/er rutilans, Walk. Cat. Het. vii. p. 161. n. 52 (1873). 



Walker's description of his S. rutilans is inexact. Tiie 

 head is not black, but only discoloured ; the clavus and 

 membrane are not black, but brownish grey, and that colour 

 extends beyond the clavus to the claval marginal area of the 

 corium.
