SUPPLEMENTARY NOTES ON CALISTO 
(LEPIDOPTERA: SATYRID^) 1 
By Harry K. Clench 
Cambridge, Mass. 
In a recent number of Psyche I published a paper on Calisto 2 
in which five new forms (one species and four subspecies) were 
described. While this paper was in press, too far advanced to 
be recalled, I received a copy of Dr. C. D. Michener’s paper on 
the same genus. 3 Thus, by an unfortunate coincidence (neither 
of us was aware of the other’s/ work), a slight confusion has 
arisen. This confusion is not so serious as it might have been, 
and is easily corrected. Below are given the forms described 
by me that are likely to be confused. 
Calisto batesi Clench ( op . cit., p. 23) is a homonym of 
Calisto hysius batesi Michener ( op . cit., p. 3). In place of this 
name, which is thus no longer valid, I propose Calisto micheneri, 
new name. 
Calisto hysius montana Clench ( op . cit., p. 24) is unaffected 
and still stands, being something other than Dr. Michener’s 
subspecies. 
Calisto conjusa debarriera Clench ( op . cit., p. 25) is correctly 
placed by me under conjusa, of which it is possibly only an 
altitudinal modification. Michener {op. cit., p. 5) erred in re- 
ferring Bates’ “Variety B” (1935, Occ. Papers Boston Soc. Nat. 
Hist. 8, p. 240(239)) to obscura Michener, “Variety B” is still 
to be placed in the synonymy of debarriera. 
Calisto obscura Michener is an exceedingly interesting dis- 
covery, which I must confess I completely overlooked when 
preparing my paper, although the species is well represented 
in the collection of the Museum of Comparative Zoology. 
Localities for obscura in the M. C. Z. collection (other than 
those given by Michener) are as follows: Puerto Sosua (Rep. 
Dom.); Mt. Rouis; Dessalines; Ennery (all Haiti).
