Recent Work on Catocalae : A new Variationt 



Aberration and Correction (Lep.). 



By EfiNST SciiWARZ. St. Louis, Mo. 



(Plata Xh 

 CatocaU robinsonii Grote, var. niMourienBU n. var. (Plate X. 

 tiRt. 1 and S). 



There occurs a form of Catocala robtmsami a little larger 

 than the ty{>ical form, in f^cneral appearance much like Catocala 

 angttsi var. lucctta in which the black shadin}; on primaries is 

 very similar to that of lucctta. In missonriensis this shade is 

 even on lx)th sides and not interrupted at the reniform and 

 subreniform, reaching to \V of the terminal line and con- 

 tinues from this point jwsteriorly in a V-shajJC to below apex. 

 This |>art of the shade is not as prominent but more suffused. 



This shading in C. angusi var. lucetta is not as even, more or 

 less interrupted by the reniform and subreniform reaching 

 nearly to the lunulcs 5 and 6. There is also a V-shaped exten- 

 sion above this point, which is of the same intensity as the 

 other part of the shading.
