400 ME, A. G. BUTLER ON THE 



genus and adopted C, omphale as its type ; this at once restricted 

 the genus to four species. 



Walker, at p. 171 of his ' Lepidoptera Heterocera,' character- 

 ized his genus Marissa, taking as its type M. columhina, thus again 

 restricting Eunomia. 



At p. 152 he also described Gymnelia (type, G. Icennus), with 

 which G. caiinus is congeneric. 



At p. 189 he described Dinia (type, JD. eagrus of Cramer). 



The genus Eunomia is thus naturally restricted to E. andro- 

 maclia of Fabricius, which is the only sense in which it can fairly 

 be adopted. 



As may well be supposed. Dr. Herrich-Schaffer has united in 

 generic groups most incongruous species : his Glaucopis (a name 

 which cannot stand) is a collection of very distinct genera ; so 

 is his Tioemocliaris. The genera which I have recognized through 

 his excellent figures in the ' Sammlung aussereuropaischer Schmet- 

 terlinge ' are as follows : — 



CopcBua, Ji..-'^c\\.^= Macrocneme. 



HcBinaterion, H.-Sch.= probably JEunomia, Dinia, ^thria, &c. 



Uyalopis, H.-Sch. = ^rrMC«. 



Mystrocneme, H..-Sch. = ^ere«= ? Cercophora, H.-Sch. 



Clirysostola, H.Sch. ^= Psetcdosphex, 



Co)'reiia-= Pionia. 



JEuclera = An drocliarta . 



I cannot identify Eclieta or Trichcea ; but the former appears to 

 have no type, so that this is of little consequence.
