LEVIDOPTERA OP THE FAMILY ZYG^NIDJ?. 361 



2. H. FULVINOTA, 11. Sp. 



$ . Closely allied to H. americana, but larger, with a conical fulvous 



spot at end of cell in primaries ; the collar only fulvous at the sides J 



the abdomen greenish, with the basal segments margined laterally 



with fulvous : expanse of wings 31 millinis. 



Espiritu Santo {Higgins). Type, B.M. 



The followiug genus appears to me to belong to the ^geriid86, 



or at any rate Walker's species. Felder's may be a Urodus, but 



is, I think, congeneric with Walker's. 



Grenus Poltphlbbia, Felder.
