The insect described by Hermann under the name of Nyct. VeS' 

 pertilionis may be considered, without liesitation, as specifically di- 

 stinct from our two British species, as well as from Nyct. Dvfourii, 

 in the structure of the male. It may possibly, however, be identi- 

 cal with Nyct. pedicularia.
