'This species has been suspected to be identical with the Europeau clvciUaris, which latter 

 name it should rephice in the List. A large, coarse, buff yellow species, with large, inferiorly 

 stained renifonn ; the lines double, bl.ackish, waved, incontinuous ; the hind wings shaded with 

 fuscous ; fringes and body squamae bull" yellow ; eyes naked, lashed. 



2rhe specimen before me is an Orthosia, the eyes lashed; the markings are like Orthoina. 

 Caradrina, as defined by Lederer, contains heterogeneous forms. However, Mr. Morrison's 

 lladena rasiWs agrees better with Caradrina than with //arfewa, from which it differs by the 

 smooth, flattened, untufted abdomen. The following are recent synonyms of Mr. ]\Iorrison"s 

 so far as known to me ; the last two references are not concurred in by Mr. Morrison. Mr. 

 Morrison's generic references, where they difler in these instances, I regard as incorrect. 



Copipanolis vernalis Morr.=Eutolype Rolandi. 



Orihosia baliola Morr.=Apamea purpuripennis. 



Xanthoptera nigrocaput Morr.=Xanth. liidingsii. 



Mamestra illahefacta Morr.=Mam. lilacina. 



Hadena rasi/i* Morr. = Caradrina grata. 



Bollna fasciolans Morr. (nee. Hiibn.)=Bolina nigrescens. 



3^5 .—Smaller, paler, but resembling xanthioides. Ochreous ; median lines tolerably approx- 

 imate and distinct, black, irregularly dentate ; t. p. line with the dentations terminating out- 

 wardly in a succession of black points, followed by inconspicuous w'hite scales ; snbterminal 

 line faint; ordinary spots separated by the median shade, concolorous, faintly black and white 

 rimmed ; hiitd wings pale in both se.xes, with a terminal ochrey band, broader and darker in the 

 female ; thorax like fore wings, abdomen like secondaries in color. Expanse, 25 m. m. Texas
