H, NEBULOsus, p. 285, 21 = H. limbatus, Wesm. 



H. siMULANS, p. 285, 22 =H. simulans. Walker. 



H. MARGiNATUS, p. 286, 23. The Nova-Scotian example is a female ; 

 it does not appear to differ from the Em'opean H. marginatus, Steph. 

 {flexuosus, Hag.). 



H. HUMULi, p. 286, 24. The English example = H. humuU, L. I am 

 not sure if the American insect be distinct ; in general appeai'ance it 

 is precisely like the European, but may perhaps differ in the appendices; 

 I possess several examples from New York. 



H. PERELEGANS, p. 287, 25. Both examples are in Stephens's 

 collection, and=H. limbatus, Wesm., dark vars. 



H. LUTESCENS, p. 287, 26. The British example = H. humuli, L. ; the 

 one from Children's collection is very different, and doubtful, being 

 in bad condition. 



H. AFFiNis, p. 287, 27 = H. humuli, L. 



. H. PAGANUS, p. 287, 28 = H. humuli, L. 



H, APiCALis, p. 288, 29 = H. humuli, L. 



H. PUNCTATUS, p. 288, 30= H. micans, Oliv. 



Ji.,cnisPVS,Tp. 288, 31 = H.limbatus,'Wesm. The American examples 

 do not essentially differ from the European, and have similar ap- 

 pendices. 



H. STIGMA, p. 288, 32 = H. limbatus, Wesm. 



H. Marsh AMI, p. 289, 34 = if. elegans, Steph. {pygmceus, Rambur). 



H. OBLITERATUS, 289, 35. The specimen immature; apparently the 

 same as crispus (limbatus). 



H. AusTRALis, p. 289, 36= H. australis, Walker. Closely alhed to, 

 humuli. 



H. VARiEGATUS, p. 290, 37 = Micromus variegatus, F. 



H. CONCINNUS, p. 290, 38 = H. concinnus, Steph. {lutescens, ¥.; cylin- 

 dripeS) Wesm.). 



H. piNi, p. 291, 39 = H. limbatus, Wesm. 



H. LONGiFRONS, p. 291, 40 = H. longifrons, Walker. This is a remark- 

 able insect, with the facies of H. nervosus, but with broader and more 

 obtuse wings, and very distinct. In my European collection I have 

 three examples, received from Prof. Zeller, which do not appear to be 

 different from the American : the latter has fom* sectors, and my 

 European insect, as a rule, only three ; but one specimen has three in 

 one fore wing, and four in the other ; the legs are entirely pale in the 

 American, but sometimes varied with fuscous in the European. All
