Without the red patch in the cen- 

 tral portion of the wing, and 

 sometimes closely approaching 

 the preceeding species. 



Subumbrata, S.V. Dr. Staudinger eon- 

 siders this the same as Scabiosata, 

 Bkh. (1794.) There are two named 

 forms in his catalogue, but I have 

 not seen British specimens of 

 either. They are Obrutaria, H.S. 

 and JEquistrigata, Stdr. Cat. 



Pernotata, Gn. Dr. Staudinger marks 

 this as doubtfully distinct from 

 Cauehyata, Dup., of which he 

 thinks it may be a variety. The 

 larvae of both feed on flowers of 

 the Golden Rod. 



Plumbeolata 



Isogrammata 



Pygmaeata 



Helveticata 



Arceuthata. Given by Dr. Staudinger 

 as a doubtful var. of the preceed- 

 ing. The larvae of both feed on 

 Juniper, and students must rear 

 them and examine them for them- 

 selves. 

 Satyrata 



Callunaria, Dbld. Whitish ash. 

 Dr. Staudinger seems to think this 

 doubtfully distinct. He gives 

 Eupatoria cannabinum as the 

 only food, while the larvae of 

 Satyrata feeds on a great variety 

 of plants. 



Egenata. I know nothing of this in- 

 sect. Dr. Staudinger seems to 

 think it only arceuthata 



Castigata. A dark form is called Ni- 

 gricans, but I do not know of its 

 occurrence here.
