30^ ZOOLOGICAL LITERATURE. 
Grqte, a. E-., and Robinson, C. T. A List of the Lepidoptera 
of North America. I. 8vo. Philadelphia, 1868, pp. 16. 
This catalogue, published by the American Entomological 
Society, has been prepared by the authors nearly on the plan 
'adopted by Leconte for the Coleoptera. The southern limit for 
the North -American area, according to the authors, is the Mexi- 
can frontier. By means of marks applied to the names, a good 
deal of information as to synonymy is conveyed by this list; and 
some further explanations are given in footnotes. The first 
part contains the families from the Sphingidie to the Bombycidae 
(sensm latiori) . 
Hewitson, W. C. Exotic Butterflies, being illustrations of 
new species. With coloured drawings and descriptions. 
Parts 65-68. 4to. London : January, April, July, and 
October, 1868. 
. Descriptions of one hundred new species of Hesperidee. 
Part 2 (pp. 25-56). 8vo. London: Van Voorst. 23rd 
March, 1868.

periides, and characters of three new genera. 
. Descriptions of some new species of Lycccnidoi. Lon- 
don ; Van Voorst. 8vo, pp. 36 : June 1, 1868. 
By the publication of this work Hewitson seeks to secure the 
priority in the naming of the species here described by him, in 
consequence of an intimation that some other entomologist 
was about to describe all the new species in his possession.
