Some remarks made by Mr. Grote in his “Note on Acronycta cristifera” lead me to support his contention that in the British Museum “types may have become misplaced.” I am, of course simply a specialist at European NoctuÆ, and only such material from outside countries as helps my work (more especially with the British species) has any great interest for me, and only so far as this can any remarks that I make be considered of value.
