excepting a fine black spot between veins of external margin of 

 primaries, and the other bred from showed a few black markings 

 on primaries near costa and basal parts. My notes taken of this, 

 a true species, will soon be made public. 



Of rarer Saturniidae, obtained one T. polyphemus var. ocuiea, 

 in July, 1896, and two others in August, 1897; a ^ three imper- 

 fect. This variety is heavily overlaid with black scales, especially 

 on primaries. The best example is in Mr. Mason's collection, 

 and others in possession of Prof. Packard for comparative study. 

 Of Hyperchiria pamina, obtained only four or five larvae and 

 cocoons in two years from Yavapai County. 



Bombycidae furnished me with several undetermined examples. 

 Gloveria arizonensis I took in two examples in central Arizona; 

 also a Heteropacha sp. which Mr. D. Bruce did not recognize. 



Of Cossidse, Mr. Bruce thinks I collected a new species, re- 

 sembling a Hypopta and quite small, now in the hands of Prof. 

 Packard for determining. It was taken in Maricopa County, '97. 



Of Geometridae, took four new species, 1896, in central Arizona, 

 one of which, a Spodoptera, Dr. G. D. Hulst, named after its 

 collector. 



Of Noctuidae, dare not speak; a large catch, season of 1897, 

 has not been examined for lack of time Heterocera are better 

 represented here than Rhopalocera, and on account of intense 

 heat numbers of the latter are much localized; some even betake 

 themselves, much as we do, to the shady side of the bush to 

 escape a broiling sun.
