Hy. Edw. is a Euchromian, but it does not belong to Lycomorpha as 
vein 10 is stalked on fore wings and 5 is present on hind wings. It 
may form a new genus when this family is revised, or may come in 
some genus at present unknown to me. It falls into Ctenucha in the 
synopsis. From the description I think regia Schaus must go with it 
Of the other species I have seen but half, and they may not all be con¬ 
generic. Judging from the above, they may belong anywhere in five 
genera of three families, representing two super-families. But, assuming 
them to be congeneric, they separate as follows. Those which I have 
reason to believe correctly placed generically are preceded by an as¬ 
terisk. Species not placed, chlora Schauf.

. In m y revision of g^era (Can. Em. XXIX, 212), I included two 
with “ vein 8 of secondaries wanting.” This is not strictly the case in 
the sense that vein 8 is wanting in the Euchromiidie by coalescence 
with 7, for in the series culminating in Eupseudosoma and Eucereon it 
has disappeared by atrophy, apparently, while in Bertholdia it is vein 6
