•'Gr.: Ka/.w eiaavfij3o7.0Q. The genus differs from Paouias iu the shupe of the second-

'» I regret to differ entirely from the conclusions reached by Sir. Lintner, in an interesting 

 article on the variation of Smerinthus geniinatus (Entomological Contribution II). I think also 

 that in no event should Drury's name be brought into use for our common species, since his illus- 

 tration is discordant. I learn from Mr. Strecker that a specimen referable to this genus has 

 been received from the Isthmus. Mr. Liutner's reasons for referring Drury's and Kirby's 

 illustrations to S. geniinatus must be conceded, I think, to be partly speculative. In 1865 I 

 satisfied myself that Kirby"s figure was failhful and his species valid.
