Plate 42. " Noctua squamularis, fig. 1, Geometra transversalis, fig. 

 2, Erebus edusa, fig. 3, Noctna undularis, fig. 4, Catocala aflBnis, fig. 

 5, Noctua lunata, fig. G, ISToctua ( Acontia) nuudina, fig. 7, Catocala 

 epione, fig. 8, Noctua (Acontia) margaritata, fig. 9, Sphinx Caro- 

 lina, fig. 10, are all copies from Drury. The nomenclature, as 

 well perhaps as the figures, are taken from Westwood's Edition, 

 which, as far as the coloring of the Plates is concerned, is inferior 

 to the original. 



Plate 43. " Phalaena phyllira, fig. 8." 

 This is a copy of Abbot's figure. 



id. "Callimori^ha epimenis, fig. 10." 



This is a copy of Drury's fig. 3, Plate 29, Vol. 3. 



Plate 44. "Attacus polyphemus, fig. 1." 



This figure and the rest on this Plate are probably original. The 

 wings are partially deflexed and drawing and coloring are alike bad. 

 This figure represents Telea polyphemus {Linn). 



id. "Sphinx (Philampilus?) pampinatrix, fig. 2." 

 The species seems to be Darapsa myron {Cram.). 



id. " Catocala amasia, fig. 3." 



The determination is erroneous. The species represented is 

 Parthenos nubilis Hubner. 



id. " Attacus cecropia, fig. 4." 



The figure represents Platysamia cecropia {Linn.). 



Plate 45. "Clisiocampa aniericana, fig. 1." 



Seems rather to represent C. sylvatica Harris. The drawing and 

 coloring of this Plate, which appears to have been made from actual 

 specimens, are alike indifferent as in Plate 44. 



id. " Agrotis ? fig. 2." 



The figure represents Hadena arctica {Boisdiival). 



id. " Geometra ? fig. 3." 



From the shape of the primaries the species intended seems to be 

 Scoliopteryx libatrix {Linn.). 



id. " Arctia virgin ica, fig. 4." 



The determination is erroneous. The figure seems to represent 

 Ilyphantria textor Harris.
