By Mr. A. G. Butler on the Genus Azelina. 
on the disk: secondaries greyish brown, striated with grey ; 
basal two thirds of abdominal border reddish; discal line 
abbreviated, blackish; a large patch of ochraceous at anal 
angle, extending from the abdominal margin to the third 
median nervule ; a rust-red spot on the first median inter- 
space; fringe testaceous: body above reddish olivaceous, the 
abdomen greyish at the sides. Wings below brownish grey, 
mottled with darker grey and ochreous ; a white dot at the 
end of each cell; discal line white, indistinct on the prima- 
ries, zigzag and margined towards the abdominal border with 
black on the secondaries; apical area of primaries rust-red 
internally, blackish externally, a diffused white patch across 
the median interspaces: secondaries with the anal area stra- 
mineous, changing to ochreous towards the second median 
vein. Body below greyish brown. Expanse of wings 1 inch

in A. stuposaria.

How Dr. Felder managed to identify this species I cannot 
comprehend; nor do I care to question the correctness of the 
identification. Without seeing the type, I should have de- 
spaired of even guessing at what Walker’s species was like, 
since that author states that it is referable to a new section of 
the genus, whereas he included no less than eight distinct 
genera in what he regarded as the typical section. The 
species identified by Dr. Felder is moreover perfectly typical, 
although in pattern it somewhat resembles A. anceta.
