1841, Gn., Ann. Ent. Soc. Fr., (1841), p. 241, grauuniptera (canccllata), 



saponaricc. 

 1852, Gn., Spec. Gen., V, Noct., I, 166, saponaricr {calcatrippcc, typica Hbn, 



marginosa), dentigcra. 

 1905, Hamp., Cat. Lep. Phal. B. M., V, 208, type designated rcticulala 



(presumably for synonym saponarice). 

 1916, McD., Ent. News, XXVII, 393, Neuria Gn. "may be used" in place 



of Hadena Schrank [partim. nee fixation type cucuhali Schiff. by 



Grote, 1895, Ent. Rec, VI, 78] as used by Hampson. 



Dargida Wlk. 



Type D. grammivora Wlk. ("lapsus calami" for graminivora) .

 1905, Hamp., Cat. Lep. Phal. B. M., V, 208, type designated graminivora. 



Eupsephopaectes Grt. 



Type E. procinctus Grt.

 fore type. 



1874, Grt., Bull. Buff. Soc. N. S., II, 17. type designated procinctus. 



1905, Hamp., Cat. Lep. Phal. B. M., V, 208, Eupsephopactes{\) in err, 

 type designated procincta. 



Duponchel's fixation of saponaricc (according to European authori- 

 ties a synonym of reticulata) as type of Hello phobus Bdv.. makes it 

 necessary to use this generic name in place of Hadena Schrank 

 (partim.) used by Hampson (1905) and Neuria Gn. used by McDun- 

 nough (1916). 



Heliophobus graminivora Wlk. 



1890, Butler, Trans. Ent. Soc. Lond., (1890), p. 672. grammivora lapsus 



calami, graminivora, Dargida.

Xgrammlvora Wlk. (lapsus calami). 



1856, Wlk., Cat. Lep. Het. B. M., IX, 202, Dargida. 

 1889, Druce, Biol. Centr.-Amer., Het., I, 270, Dargida. 



Two specimens from Hereford, Ariz. (Biederman) agree with 

 the series of graminivora in the U. S. National Museum (vide 

 Schaus) ; and match Hampson's figure.
