Extract
On page 92 of the Bulletin U.S.N. Museum, No. 28, Prof. Smith says: “Mr. Butler says argur is the type of Graphiphora, Ochs., in which case the application of the name to the Taeniocampa series by Mr. Grote would be unwarranted.” I never fixed the type of Ochsenheimer's genus Graphiphora. What I did was to fix the type of Hübner proposes the name in the Tentamen for gothica, which, as it is the only species given, is therefore the type. Afterwards, in 1816, Ochsenheimer, 4, 68, includes ravida and 16 species not seperable from Agrotis.
