LEP IDO PTERA. 
The remarks already advanced in fpeaking of our new fpecies Sphinx Auflralafiae, will apply in a mate- 
rial degree to this nondefcript fpecies likewife. We cannot entertain a doubt of its being perfeftly 
unknown in this country till it was introduced at the: fame time as the former by Dr. White. It is rather 
larger than our Auftralatiae, to which it bears no very remote refemblance j the colours are in general 
darker, and it is in particular diftinguillied by a narrow white ftreak that extends along the interior 
margin of the firft pair of wings. 
Of this fpecies we have lately feen three or four fpecimens in different cabinets.
