to which particular section of the genus this species falls; one of the 
European species has the anterior tibia armed. 
80. This division is remarkably compact; all the genera agree in the 
lack of tibial armature, and of clypeal modification: the vestiture is alike, 
‘and there is little difference in the palpi; this leaves only tuftings and an- 
tennal characteristics: neither of them very satisfactory. 
81. In part only: the species belonging here were formerly classed 
as Dianthoecia. Mr. Grote has lately incorporated the species with J7Za- 
mesira, aS 1 believe correctly, 
82. Mr. Grote has refered his genus Acerra to Perigrapha. 1 pre- 
sume he is correct. 
83. [am in doubt whether there are any American species of this ge- 
nus. The D. fallax of Mr. Grote’s Catalogue belongs to Zoma and the 
species ‘placed in this genus in the Brooklyn Entomological Society's 
Check-lst I believe to be incorrectly so placed. 
84. Pseudorthodes Morr. is not generically distinct. It differs only 
in the longer wings, and in sexual peculiarities which do not suffice. 
85. Morrisonia Grt., does not I think differ from Xylomiges. 
86. Graphiphora Ab. Crocigrapha Grt., do not differ very mark- 
edly from Zaentocampa and I do not consider it distinct. 
87. Tricholita Grt., is not sufficiently distinct to warrant its retention 
as a Separate genus. 
88. In part only: see note 81 ante.

go and last. It remains now only to note those genera not mention- 
ed in the synopsis, and those described subsequent thereto; and taking 
the last first we find 
Hpinyctis, Gri Cans nt. Vol RIND. 75: | 
‘Vestiture scaly. Eyes naked. Labial palpi short. Front full with- 
out excavation or tubercle: infra clypeal plate prominent. ‘Tibia non- 
spinose; fore tibia short, with a claw. Thorax and abdomen untufted. 
Antenne simple. Cut of the wings something like Cucuwdia. Primaries 
narrow and long, apices pointed; external margin oblique, even; the 
wings satiny white. ” 
The species, zofatella must remarkably resemble Wycteropheta Mag- 
_dalena, Hulst, but the genus is readily distinguished, as a reference to the 
diagnosis of Nycterpheta in the synopsis will show. Closely allied how- 
ever the two certainly are. : a .
