Additions. 
P. 716, line 4 from above, add to the synonyms: hesperus auct. 
P. 719, line 5 from above, add to maurus the synonym: (= maurusius Schreit.). Schreiter describes 
the larva to be sea-green with violettish-white girdles and white hair; it lives on a tree-like Euphorbiacea 
(Croton spec.) and is very much infested by Ichneumonidae (Eremotylus spec.). 
P. 719, line 18 from above, add to maurusius the synonym: (= maurus Schreit.). According to Schrei- 
ter, the larva is black with yellow girdles, set with fine white hair. It lives polyphagously on Euphorbiaceae 
(Sapium haematospersum), Anacardiaceae (Duvana spec.), and Bignoninceae (Jacaranda acutifolia). It is 
likewise decimated by the said Ichneumonid. Two generations. 
P. 719, line 26 from below, add to tucumani: Schreiter describes the larva to be bright green with 
white girdles and short black branched thorns. It lives monophagously on Eupatorium buniifolium and pupates 
in an ovoid yellowish white case and frequently receives an Ichneumonid (Trachysphyrus spec.). 
P. 719, line 17 from below, add to condor: Schreiter found the species in Tucuman (Argentina), at 
altitudes of 1500—2000 m in a form differing considerably from the Peruvian type: — schreiteri /. n. Somewhat 
smaller and much lighter, of a more pinkish-brown ground-colour, the costal-marginal area in both wings 
remarkably lighter violettish-white, with intensely black veins, a much narrower median area, much shorter 
and broader hyaline spots without the extraordinarily long ramifications that are shown in our figure of the 
type; the postmedian line is more pointedly notched, the subterminal area is broader, the proximal portion of 
the marginal area much lighter. Larva green with white girdles, on each girdle with 6 ramified thorns. It 
lives on Baccharis sculpta (Compositae) and pupates in a dingy white ovoid case. After a pupal stage of 7 or 8 
months the imago emerges in November and December. 
P. 725, line 26 from above, to vitellina add the synonym: (= canella Schreit.). Judging from the figure 
of canella supplied by Schreiter (Univ. Nac. de Tucuman, 1925), it is undoubtedly the yellow form of joinvillea 
which he found in Argentina, quite different from canella with its broad and obtuse wings. The larva is green 
with 2 orange red dorsal hair-tufts on each segment, the central hair longer and black, with 2 rows of much 
shorter red-brown hair-tufts on each side, and with red stigmata. It lives on the Lauracea Phoebe porphyria 
and pupates in an exterior widely reticulated and interior narrowly reticulated web. 
P. 743, line 15 from above: A. superba Burm. is to be cancelled, and on p. 767, line 19 from below, the 
name superba is to be inserted for D. lulesa Schs. According to a water-colour sketch very kindly sent by Mr. 
Paul Kohler, the identity of superba is doubtless, the figure of which in Burmeister’s atlas is scarcely 
recognizable. The species is a typical Dirphia; lulesa becomes synonymous.
