Fam. PiiUSiD^. 



22. Plusia verticillata. 



Pliisia verticillata, Guen. Sp. Gen. Lep. vi. p. 344. 

 Two specimens, identical with those from Java. 



23. Plusia oxygramma. 



Plusia oxygramma, Hiibn. Exot. Schmett. f. 769, 770. 

 Identical with North-American specimens in my own collection. 



Fam. HYBLiEiu^. 



24. Hybl^a puera. 



Hyblcea puera. Cram. Pap. Exot. ii. t. 103. f. D, E. 



Fam. GoNOPTERiD^. 



25. COSMOPHILA XANTHINDYMA. 



Cosmophila xanthindijma, Boisd. Faun. Ent. Madagascar, p. 94 

 t. 13. f. 7. 



2fi. Gonitis editrix. 



Gonitis editrix, Guen. Sp. Gen. Lep. vi. p. 404, t. 2. f. 5. 

 I cannot distinguish the specimens caught by Mr. Woodford from 

 those in my own collection from South America. 



27. Gonitis vulpina. 



Gonitis vulpina, Butl. Trans. Ent. Soc. Loud. 1886, p. 408. 



28. Gonitis xanthochroa. 



Gonitis xanthochroa, Butl. Trans. Ent. Soc. Lond. 188(j, p. 409. 



Fam. Catephid^. 



29. Cocytodes modesta. 



Cocytodes modesta, Van der Hoeven, Lep. Nouv. t. 7. f. 8. 

 One specimen, identical with those before me from New Caledonia 

 and the New Hebrides. 



30. Steiria variabilis. (Plate XIII. figs. 3, 4, vars.) 



Steiria variabilis, Mooi'e, Descrip. Indian Lep. from the Coll. of 

 the late Mr. Atkinson, p. 164. 



Mr. Woodford took fifteen specimens of this extremely variable 

 insect, no two of them being alike. The specimens vary from pale 

 fawn-colour to dark blackish brown, and if they are separated at 

 least ten of them would have to be named : this species varies 

 much in the same way as Diadema bolina does from the same place. 

 I believe it most likely this will prove to be another form of 

 Slictoptera cucullioides, Guen.
