collector has already been examined by Mr. Grote, but those that do 

 occur are interesting additions to our fauna. The following is a list 

 of the species. 



Leptina dormitans Guen. Sept. 5. 



Charadra dispulsa Morr. (I) 1 Aug. 28. 



Bryophila percara Morr. (2) Three specimens. May 2 and 

 Sept. 4 and 20. 



Agrotis subgothica Haw. Var. tricosa Lintn. This Texan 

 specimen of tricosa approaches more closely to the true subgothica 

 than northern specimens of that variety. 



Agrotis Morrisoniana Riley. (3) Oct. 24. 



Agrotis malefida Guen. Two specimens, June 26. This spe- 

 cies has hitherto been unidentified; it agrees perfectly with M. 

 Xruenee's concise description, and as he remarks, forms the connect- 

 ing link between the species allied to jmta; and annexa. 



Agrotis annexa Treits. Five specimens, Sept. 1 to 15, and 

 Jan. 12. Common in Texas, as in all the Southern States. 



Agrotis sufiusa Linn. Two specimens, Sept. 20. 



.Agrotis saucia Hiibn. Three specimens, March 13, May 26, 

 and June 22. Agrotis Ortonii Pack., from the Upper Amazon, is 

 identical with this species, which is distributed over both North and 

 South America, as well as Europe. 



Agrotis simplaria Morr. Two specimens, Oct. 13. This 

 species will be fully illustrated in our paper on the genus Agrotis. 

 The name was printed simplicius in the original description ; this error 

 was overlooked, and is now corrected. 



Agrotis clandestina Harr. May 9. The ground color is 

 much lighter than in northern specimens. 



Mamestra confusa Hiibn. March 5. 



Mamestra innexa Grote. (4) Three specimens, Sept. 11 and 21. 



Mamestra laudabilis Guen. Two specimens, Oct. 13 and 

 Sept. 29. 



Mamestra teligera Morr. (5) Two specimens, Oct. 13 

 and 24. 



Hadena miselioides Guen. Three specimens, April 30, June 

 25, and Oct. 5. One was of the variety in which the reniform spot 

 is white and contrasting; this form is also found in the Northern 

 States.

 ing portion of the paper.
