A NEW PAMPHILA. 



By Henry Skinner, M. D., Philadelphia. 



P. panoquinoides n. sp. — Expands one inch. Color brown. 

 Superiors have two minute fulvous spots on the subcostal ner- 

 vules and a larger spot in the disc below these. Inferiors im- 

 maculate. Underside. — Superiors are same color as above, but 

 of a lighter shade, with a patch of fulvous scales about one-eighth 

 inch froni base; the spots seen above are repeated, and there are 

 two additional ones. One of these is V-shaped, and is the largest 

 and situated between the first and second median nervules. The 

 last spot is near the middle of the interior margin. The inferiors 

 have a row of three white spots near the centre of the wing; they 

 are half as wide as long. Head, thorax and abdomen same color 

 as wings above, lighter beneath. Described from specimens from 

 Key West, Fla. and Texas in the collection of I. C. Martindale, 

 Esq. This species in color and size may be said to stand between 

 P. panoquin and P. fusca; being smaller and darker than pano- 

 q ?an a.nd larger and lighter" than yz^^<:«. Approa.ch.es panoqum 

 nearer than any other species, but has fewer and more indistinct 

 markings. Looks very much like panoqiciyi beneath.

On the Genus Anaea Hb. (Paphia Westw.) of Our Country. 



By B. Neumoegen, New York. 



There is evidently some misunderstanding about the classifica- 

 tion of the two species of Ancea found in this country. W. H. 

 Edwards, Prof Scudder and Riley, and other authors have written 

 on it, but the questions have never been satisfactorily settled. 



According to W. H. Edwards' "Revised Catalogue," 1884, 

 p. 45, A. (^paphia) troglodyia Fabr. 

 = astianax Cr. 



= gly cerium Edw. (nee. Doubl.) 

 ^ andria Scud, 

 is found in our Western States, from Illinois to Texas and Neb. 



I will herewith prove that the typical troglodyta is an insect 

 flying in the Antilles, and that our species should correctly bear 

 the name of andria Scud.

 the West Indies, especially of Cuba and Puerto Rico, has sent
