238 Mr. W. F. Kirby's Notes on 



Sphingin^. 



AmphonyxRivularis,^u\\.. Upper Amazons ; Mexico. 



The Mexican specimen is mucli larger than any of the 

 others. 



Anceryx Alope, Dru. (? Cram.) (= Sphinx Flavicans, 



Goeze, Ent. Beytr. iii. 2, p. 216, n. 44 (1780) ). 

 Isognathus Menechus, Boisd. Brazil. 

 . Dilophonota MeriancB, Grote. Colombia. 

 Macrosila Lefebvrei, Guer. (iz Incisa, Walk.) 



Brazil. 

 Protoparce Dalica, n. s., infra. Canada. 



„ Cingulata, Fabr. (rz Sphinx Affinis, 



Goeze). 

 „ Quinquemaculatus, Haw. (z= CeleuSy 



Hiibn.) 

 „ Sexta, Johannsen (= Carolina, Linn.). 



The Am. Ac. vi. and Mus. Ulr. are both dated 1764 ; 

 but as Linne quotes the former, its priority is established. 



jP. Ahadonna, Fabr. Queensland. 



This is a species measuring 3^ inches across, and re- 

 sembling a small Convolvuli, from which it may be at 

 once distinguished by the absence of the rosy spots on the 

 abdomen. It is well described by Macleay as Sphinx 

 Godarti, in King's Australia, and I therefore consider a 

 further notice superfluous. It agrees better with S. Aba- 

 donna, Fabr., than any other species known to me ; and the 

 locality of the latter (East Indies) is also sufliciently near. 



P. Pseudoconvolvuli, Schauf. 



Small pale Convolvuli from Natal and Abyssinia may 

 perhaps be identical with Schaufuss' insect. 



Diludia Pamphilius, Cram. Upper Amazons. 



A pair of what I believe to be this species. It seems 

 to be intermediate between Brontes, Dru., and Lichenea, 

 Walk. 



Diludia Bethia, n. s., infra. Queensland. 

 „ Nebulosa, Butl. Sikkim. 



{Hyloicus Dyncpus, Hiibn. Zutr. ff. 463, 464, appears to 

 have been overlooked by Mr. Butler.)
