Prodenia phytolaccæ (Abbot & Smith, Vol. 2, 193, Pl. 97).

This species is sent me by Mr. Belfrage from Texas, under the number 706 (pink label). The insect has naked eyes, pellucid white and iridescent secondaries, the veins and external margin slightly-soiled. It cannot be referred to Xylomiges, the type of which genus, the European conspicillaris, has hairy eyes, as have all the species referred by me to Xylomiges in my “Check List” and elsewhere.
