Extract

Page 99. Apatela. As might have been expected from the inconspicous markings and uniform gray colour of the moths, the identifications of species of Acronycta, described by Walker and Guenée, have proved difficult and often contradictory. I am now inclined to waive all objections and accept Dr. Dyar's list as it stands. The only point I make is, the difficulty I have in believing that, having identified xyliniformis, Guen., already and orginally for Riley, I should have described specimens at a later period as pallidicoma; it seems to me yet possible that two forms are here “mixed up,” although I know xyliniformis to be inconstant.
