Extract

To make my way clear I beg to state the objects I had in view in writing the article that appeared under my name in the number of the Canadian Entomologist for last May. They were these:

I.—To establish the identity of the Spilosoma Antigone of Strecker with the Spilosoma congrua of Walker.

II.—To show that Dr. Riley's series of wings in Fig. 87, Packard's Forest Insects, does not afford a proof conclusive that cunea, textor, punctata and punctatissima are one and the same species of insect.

III.—To bring into notice a Spilosoma which answers to the figure given by Drury of his Bombyx cunea.
