Hyperchiria^ Hiibn. Under the new generic name of lo [itself barely 
admissible, being the specific name of the oldest known species], J. A. 
Boisduval has given (Ann. Ent. Belg. xviii. pp. 188-248, pis. iv. & v.) a 
‘‘ monograph ” of this genus. 71 species are described, the great majority as 
new. Simply because it is Hubner’s, Boisduval rejects HiibneFs genus 
Ilyperchiria^ accepted by all other entomologists. Identification of the 
71 species is impossible here, but the folloAving is a complete list with 
localities (the new names are marked with an asterisk); — 7. James, Cram.,
