HEMILEUCINI Grote and Robinson (1866). 



Note.— This group, which we would consider as of sub-family value, is discussed in 

 Ann. Lye. Nat. Hist., N. Y. S, pp. 377, 378. None of the collective names proposed by 

 Hllbner can be used. The group is not recognized in the Tentamen (1806) ; in the Ver- 

 zeichniss some of the genera are referred to the Echidncc, and one to the Hercca, names 

 exi^lained above under Attaci. 



AuTOMERis Hiibn. (1816). 



Type : Bombyx Janus Cramer.

Note. — This generic term has priority in the Verzeichniss. Cramer's figures under 

 this specific name cannot, by themselves, constitute a valid priority.

CoLORADiA Blake (1863). 

 Type : Coloradia Pandora Blake. 



Note. — This genus is distinct from Dirphia Hilbn. (1816), the type of which is D.. 

 Tarquinins {Cram).

PSETJDOHAZIS G. & R (1866). 

 Type : Saturnia eglanterina Boisd. 



Note. — Dr. Packard's genus Eucronia is founded on H. maja, which we have shown 

 to be Walker's type of Hemileuea. In an opposite view, the validity of the present 

 generic name cannot be disputed until it is satisfactorily shown that the South Ameri-- 

 can H. venosa Walk., is congeneric.
