ARCTIIDiE. 
Wallicngren (Kongl. Svenska Akacl. Plandl. v. 4. p. 46) pro- 
poses to form a distinct family for his genus Leptosoma and 
several new genera (not characterized here). He gives it the 
following characters: — Leptosomatidce. Cellula discoidalis alarum 
omnium plica crassa divisa. Retinaculum distinctum. Costa 
iudependens alarum anticarum ad angulum posteriorem cellulte 
,quam ad angulum ejus anteriorem propius accedens. Costa 
prima alarum posticarum ad basin libera, areolam accessoriam 
contagione trunci communis costarum superioris semper clausam 
formans. Areola auxiliaris alarum anticarum adest. Ocelli ad- 
sunt.
