ALTEEATION OF THE NAME OF AN INDIAN 

 GEOMETBID MOTH. 



In part vi. of '111. Typ. Lep. Het.' p. 83, I referred a 

 moth, described by rne in 1880 as " Abraxas conspersa," to my 

 genus Icterodes. It is a white-winged species, and (owing to the 

 then crowded state of the drawer containing the genus Icterodes) 

 I was unable to transfer it to its true position in the cabinet. 



In part vii. I described one of Mr. Hocking's species, with 

 yellow wings, under the name of Icterodes conspersa, not seeing 

 any species of that name under the genus. I thus duplicated the 

 name, and, as the most careful examination reveals nothing 

 beyond a colour distinction between the two groups of Icterodes, 

 it becomes necessary to alter the name of the later species, 

 which I propose to call Icterodes sparsa. I have to thank Mr. 

 Warren for calling my attention to this stupid lapsus calami.
