GENUS CHARILINA. 



This genus is Walker's, and Boisduval is in error in 

 attributing it to Felder. He places in it Amahilis, Drury 

 (Walker's type ; which Walker refers to the Lithosidm, 

 placing it near Deiopcia) ; and decora, Linn., (the type of 

 Pais, Hiibn, Walk., placed by the latter in his Castmidai). 

 If the two species are to be united in one genus, the name 

 Pais must of course be retained ; as even if we concede to 

 Boisduval that Hiibner's names count for lioLhing, Pais is 

 yet used by Walker in an earlier volume to Charilina. 

 Pais Pulchra, Trimen, overlooked by Boisduval, is probal^ly 

 allied to Amahilis. 



GENUS EUDRYAS. 



Three species admitted, Unio, Assimilis,* fDouljl. MS.) 

 and Bartholommi. The second species seems to be nothing 

 more than the well-known E. grata, Fabr., the last is pos- 

 sibly new, as it is distinct from Brevipcnnis, Stretch, Bois- 

 duval is unacquainted both with this species and E. 

 Saiidce Johannis, Walk. 



GENUS ALYPIA. 



Nine species admitted, four of which Boisduval claims 

 as his own, unaware that Grote and Roldnson described 

 and figured them the year before the publication of his 

 Lepidopteres de la Calif ornie. Similis, Brarmani and 

 Jjeviata of Stretch, and Langtonii of Couper are all 

 unknown to Boisduval except Similis, v^hich. he redescribes 

 as new under the name of Edwardsii. Biviaculata, H.S. 

 (of which Eusemia (?) Crescens, Walk., is probably a var.), 

 is renamed Trimaculata. (It is an open question whether 

 such a correction is allowable). A. Grotei of Boisduval 

 does not appears to be distinct from this species. 



* Giote has published some remarks on this paper, relating to this 

 species, Aly2na 8-inaculata, and Urania Rhipheus, in the Canadian 

 Entomologist, vol. vi. p. 180.
