2 c? (? , 3 ? ? caught (Sir George Hampson has placed 

 in Ammalo a heterogeneous mass of species consisting of 

 eleven species belonging, in my opinion, to at least four if 

 not five different genera. In addition to this, he lias united 

 insnlata, aurata, and aravaca as one species under insulata, 

 which is quite erroneous. I have for the present used the 

 genus Pareuchates, Grote, genotype insulaia, for the three 

 species of thi.s group, awaiting a final revision of the 

 Arctiinse).
