Check List of the Noctuid.e of North America. Buffalo: Reinecke & Zesch, 1876. PREFACE The present list of names of described species of North American Moths, is as correct and complete as I can make it in the present state of our knowledge of the families here included. I have followed the name of the species with that of its author, without reference to the genus under which it was originally pub- lished. I have adopted such of Hubner's generic names as have been used by good authorities on the literature and structure of this group of insects. Only in a few instances (e. g. LitJiopJiane) does this use originate with myself, and I have given special reasons for the procedure. In the case cited the name JVj///«(7 has been usually employed. This name, as I have shown in my " Check List " of the Noctuidm, is originally proposed by Hubner for a species belonging to the genus Hadena. Ochsenheimer takes it from Hubner, citing him as authority, and uses it for a mixed assortment of species, including some Lithophanes and Hadenas, together with other European Noctuids now placed under differ- ent genera. In the meantime Hubner includes Socia under his genus LitJiophane, and I have taken this as the type of the genus, properly rejecting Xylina as a synonym of Hadena. The name Lithophane is, thus, the correct one for the genus, and is quite euphonious and otherwise unobjectionable. Its signification is quite expressive of the appearance of the species for which it is used, and the same Greek word is taken (in a different connec- tion) for a genus in the same group by Stephens (e. g. Lithoniia). I have also restored Hubner's authority to genera like Agrotis, a name originally proposed by him, and credited to him by Ochsenheimer, but afterwards appropriated by various writers. There is nothing in my adoption of Hubner's names which can be fairly criticized, unless it be claimed that this writer should be totally ignored for genera. But no author whom I have studied has rejected Hubner entirely. His generic names have been used by all, so evidently proper have a number of them proved to be. So far as the number of genera here retained is concerned, I have not willingly adopted one not resting on real structural charac- ters. Certain writers in effect overlook all characters which necessitate a close or microscopic examination. Their classifica- tion depends upon their arbitrary idea of what species belong to a genus. It would be impossible to draw up a diagnosis of the genus Eudryas, for instance, as arranged by them, and including in it the species of Copidryas and Ciris. If we examine the neuration, the mouth, the clypens, we will find that Gloveri dif- fers as strongly from Unio and Grata, and by as tangible marks as characterize any two related genera in the order. The species must then be thrown together, in this instance, from general re- semblances of size and color. Yet Hubner is blamed for depend- ing in his diagnoses upon size and color. But it is not accurate to overlook the characters which separate Copridryas from Eudryas ; and the close correspondence between the two species of Eudryas, in structure, lends force to an objection against their being brought together with Gloveri, in one and the same genus. The present "List" takes the place of the List of 1868. and includes the various catalogues of single genera or families which I have drawn up since that time. There are very few changes which have not been explained by me elsewhere, and with the consciousness that I have spared no labor or thought to make it accurate, I leave it to its judges. The territory it covers is the North American Continent, north of Mexico and the West Indies. In the Dryocampadtz, three species are added, hitherto only known from Mexico. Southwestern Texas will be found to have many species in common with Northern Mexico ; and the ex- tremity ofthe peninsula of Floridahas several species found in Cuba. Dr. Le Conte's faunal map has shown itself correct so far, also, as the Lepidoptera are concerned. I have omitted from this List the signs of doubt as to the position of a species in a genus. In a number of cases this needs revision, yet the " List " will prove itself, I believe, more correct than its predecessors in this respect. As some changes are made for the first time, and the " List " is the result of my original work, it will have what authority I can give it as a contribution to a natural arrangement of the material it deals with. I have omitted also from this " List " the sign placed after names of species which I have not seen. The num- ber of these instances has diminished since the List of 1868, while the number of species has greatly augmented. Much has been done for Science and a knowledge of our species of Moths when they are named and catalogued correctly — listed so that their names express their qualities, and their position the relationship and ancestry of tlie different kinds. The amateur, the collector, the exact thinker, is encouraged and satisfied with these results, but the philosopher feels that the quest is but half begun. The lives of these idle moths call out no lessons of morality as the ant taught the Hebrew. But their wings, carelessly fluttering, caught the eye of the Greek, half poet and half philosopher, himself fond of the Sun and Nature, and they served him for proof of Immortality. The Hebrew, more severe, sought rules for his daily converse with other men ; his soul was content within its dwelling. Afterwards one of his tribe was to write the belief that in his flesh he was to see God. In the meanwhile the Greek had turned Nature into Metaphysics, and had consoled himself with Psyche. Not in the flesh, but on airy, all but impalpable wings, was he to join the Gods, a shade, a shadow, a breath. His Eternities became elastic, as his thoughts, playing around the facts of Nature perceived by him, made Deities out of Matter finely spun out in dreams. At length he perceived that this was an endless procession in which he was moving — in his clan or leading on horseback Homeric hosts. At the last we are expressed by chemical formulas, as other com- pounds of the materials of worlds. But what capabilities are not ours in Evolution ! I hear the noises making all over the globe, as we are crowding together by increase of population. We are more brutal to each other and selfish under this struggle for ex- istence than the Jews, and this despite our Christianity which we have taken from them, and which is so full of panaceas against the evils of overcrowding. That is the test of the practical value of belief, when it betters our condition. What a range of thought one can run over, catching butterflies along the hedge-rows. I come back to my first surprise, when, as a boy, I caught Cicin- delas on the South beach of Staten Island. I saw that there were immense questions hanging about unsolved, as I was bottling my captures. These insects were part of a Universe with Stars and Suns. I could not understand the life I was taking ; and then I felt the grief that arises when we become conscious of the role played by Destruction. I abandoned collecting insects, even walking carefully so as not to bruise the golden-rods and purple asters that fringed my path. This world became filled with pain, and I quarreled with a friend who pinned some delicately colored species alive, rather than risk the effects of anjesthetic poisons on their fugitive tints. I felt there was a certain selfishness in my enjoyment of Nature. How much, alas, we must do to get knowledge I was soon to discover in the dissecting room ! Yet I cannot reconcile myself to, nor grasp the reasons for vivisection. If there is one thing that is hateful to my soul it is this. When, in after life, I found a man who, in order to exhibit himself before a mixed assemblage as is present at the meeting of the Associa- tion for the Advancement of Science, was willing to cut up a cat, I knew that I had before me a man deficient in moral sense, whom horrors attracted, who brought himself into note by the ease with which he moved among the miseries that he inflicted. The audience cannot be thus instructed ; and the most sensible are probably only shocked at the exhibition and surprised to find themselves its witnesses. I feel somewhat guilty in having induced my reader to come this far, as I hope, through a little display of philosophy, to a lesson against cruelty. But, even in preparing insects for the cabinet, there is a great choice of means, and I hope that the enthusiasm of the student will not cause him to forget that these little creatures suffer and feel pain. Early in my entomological career I stopped collecting and joined the Battle of the Synonyms instead, and gave myself up to de- scribing. But now we have such excellent means for taking these tiny lives without lengthy suffering, that Entomology is relieved of much of the odium that has properly clung to the study. Of most Lepidoptera the life in the perfect stage is brief, even when not invaded by birds and rodents. Entomol- ogists kill a very minute proportion of the swarms of insect life, but they owe it to themselves to take their share humanely. The present "New Check List" is founded on preceding Lists, published by myself and the late Mr. C. T. Robinson, or by myself alone. These cover the whole ground, commencing with the Synonymical Catalogue of Sphingidaeof 1865, down to the last list published by myself in the "Canadian Entomologist" or other of our periodical Entomological magazines. These sources are the foundations for future " Lists," simply because they are the first to be published, and contain original matter, and must be known and used by all later comers (like the "Brooklyn Check List ") in the same field. By the List now offered to the student, I think that a collection of our moths can be naturally and scientifically arranged. In some cases there may be an unprejudiced difference of opinion as to certain genera adopted ; for instance in the SpJiingidii', a group composed of such large and showy insects, that without a microscope an opinion on structure may be given. It must be remembered that I have been guided by the recently published monograph of Mr. Butler to some extent, considering that the very large material he has had before him will have led to more correct ideas as to the affinities of the different species. In this group the generic characters are mainly comparative, only Aniplionyx, among the many genera I have examined, affording a single strong generic character. Yet in many instances the differ- ences are sufficiently clear as to cause no reasonable doubts that we have to do with different generic types. In the palpi, neura- tion, antennae and abdomen, together with the whole habit, char- acters are afforded by C. Jiiglandis, for instance, which are as strong as those separating any two other genera in the group. So far as the study of geographical distribution is concerned, it is in- teresting to know that the ocellated western forms of SmcrintJms agree in structure with the European, while our species from the Atlantic coast diverge from this type, but agree with another form from Asia Minor. The American species of Ambidyx, which do not, however, occur within the territory embraced by this List, so far as I know, may be distinguished from the Asiatic species (hitherto referred to this genus) by a sub-apical excision in the external margin of the forewings and by a reversal of the color- ing of the tegulae and thorax. In the American species the shoulder-covers are dark and the thorax pale. In describing A. Scxoculata from Brazil, I drew attention to the probable generic distinction between the two groups. I mention this here to show that close observation is necessary to bring out facts which have a bearing upon wider questions than the separation of species, namely, geographical distribution and descent. In the different families we are obliged to use different char- acters as the basis for genera, and even in different sections of the same family. Thus in a large number of genera in the Noc- tuidte, it needs only a careful study to apprehend quite strong characters, such as armed tibiae, hairy eyes, a pitted or roughened and tuberculate clypeus. But among several genera below Honi- optera and among the Deltoids, the characters tend to become comparative. In this latter group the tibiae are always unarmed and the eyes naked, and v/here we have simple antennae and no peculiarities such as distinguish Renin, ZanclognatJia and Palla- chira, we have to take comparative differences. In Capis, for instance, a glistening, pyralidous Deltoid, we have merely the broader, squarer fore wings and the difference in the labial pulpi to distinguish it from Sisyrhjpena, which in habit it resembles ; although it is probable that the male antennae are also simple, and that there are some differences in the neuration which I have not worked out yet. I cite this merely as an example of the varying characters of genera in the group. In this list, then, I have most frequently adopted genera which I have studied, and, upon one ground or another, have been convinced of their validity. I hope the student, after arranging his material, will be tempted to investigate its structure and literature for himself. He will un- doubtedly discover many new facts which will here and there lead to changes. Let him but compare this list with the Smith- sonian catalogue and he will at first hardly recognize them as referring to the same fauna. It is hoped now that we are on the road to more accurate knowledge. It is a pity that in this study so much personal difference finds expression. Without having attained the ideal, I have held before my mind the picture of a student without prejudice and incapable of concealing the sources of his information ; one who, in his interpretation of Nature, is courteous and fair towards all those engaged in the same quest. I do not wish to allow my " New Check List " to go to the press without my acknowledgment that I have made, with most students, a great many mistakes. Considering the circumstances, and looking back over many years during which I had no one to help me with determinations, so that I was obliged to make out the genera and species as I could, I am surprised I did not make more. With regard to my species, though very numerous, I think they are very generally known ; partly because I have de- termined for others so much, and partly, I hope, that my descrip- tions are recognizably written, to say nothing of the Plates which I have published illustrating the subject. Mr. Henry Edwards has corrected the proofs of this list of the genus Catocala, and authorizes my retaining the names Levettei, Anna and Adoptiva, for the three species described by me. I need not say anything as to Mr. Edwards' knowledge of the species of Catocala and their Hterature. But I may say that he is thor- oughly well acquainted with the facts in the controversy with regard to these species. It is admitted by Mr. Hulst, represent- ing Mr. Strecker, that I gave the names first to these species, as also that Mr. Strecker antedated his number. I have shown reasons for the opinion that Mr. Strecker had sheets of my paper, printed in Philadelphia, and dated September, before him, when he put the incorrect date, " August," to his number which appeared in November. I am also indebted to Mr. Henry Edwards for his careful revision of the proof sheets of the list of the Algeriadw. I have received from the same Entomologist information as to the syno- nymy of certain Western Sphingidce. In the GeometridcB I have followed Dr. Packard's admirable Monograph, with but few changes in the names or synonymy ; the BoarmincB are placed lower down, as they appear to me to occupy an inferior position in the family. I have not taken into the list the Desiderata of Dr. Packard, except in a few instances. I have restored the sequence of the Geometrida:, commencing with the highest genera, as is customary. It is odd that in the " Brooklyn Check List," where the intention evidently is to commence with the highest forms in a family, an exception is made with the Gcometridce^ which are catalogued upside down.

But I have doubts, since seeing an Icelandic specimen, as to whether Moeschler is nght. In restoring OpiJ>ara for this species, I do not in the slightest way change my opinion as to the identity of the Mt. Washington and Labradorian species. + I have seen the type of this species in coll. Bost. Soc. N. Hist. It is otherwise unknown to me* The description is slight (Proc. B. S. N. H 165, 1874). Afterwards I saw the type of Mythimna Subporphyria, Walk., in Brit. Mus., and it Suggested this species of Mr. Morrison's, 1 1 Mr. Morrison was str ongly ef opinion that his Stigmosa is a distcint species, which I had doubted at first. Afterwards the differences seemed to me constant. Stigviosa is, however, of later publi- cation than Volubilis, which latter name must stand for the species in case Stigmosa proves to be a variety. In fact, Mr. Morrison compares it in his original description with J- W?c (!■///.? and Gravis. This does not deter the authors of the Brooklyn Check List, who also place Oncocnemis Chandleri as a variety of Riparia^ which latter was originally published as a variety of Chandleri. 26 294 Saucia, Hubtt.

The " white dots " are not distinct in caught specimens, and the discal marks, while inaccurately given by the engraver, are sufficiently suggestive of the real markings. It is dis- ingenuous of Prof. Riley to quote a Bahia species as if he had the real Argillacea^ but hesitates to make the identification. What does Hubner's figure cover, if not our species ?

I name it for the late William Valentine An irews, of Brooklyn, an Entomologist whose obituary will be found Vol. X., C. E., 240. The moth has the forewings of a different shape from Catocala, less produced, the inner and costal margins more parallel, entire. The hind wings want the mesial band. 42 Capnodes, Guen. 1293 Californica, Behr. Aiiticarsia, Hubn. 1294 Gemmatalis, Hubn. Antiblemma, Hubn. 1295 Canal is, Gr. Agassizia, Behr. 1296 Urbicola, Behr.

Fernald, and which is a most carefully written and valuable scientific work for which entomologists cannot be too grateful. 1 1 This abbreviation is used instead of the full name of Lord Walsingham, whose works on North American Microiepidoptera are of great value from their thoroughness and reliability. From a condition of obscurity, the subject of North American TortricidcE has become comparatively clear from the labors of Lord Walsingham, Professor Zeller and Professor Fernald. 58 L.^n-« «0 -TX.^ . .-„_ Tl,r j.-^ _r/-' '- T i-l._ Page 38. The species Mofiefifera of Guenee I take as the type of the genus Herrichia, which has been confounded with the European Eriopus. Form slender; abdomen not exceed- ing the seconda'-ies, tufted on the dorsal line at bai^e, and especiallvi on third segment. Eyes naked, unlashed. Ocelli. Tibice unarmed. Vestiture consisting of flattened scales mixed with hair. Wings broad, entire; fore wings with the apices a little pointed; outer margin sinuate subapically, full at submedian nervules ; 12-veined ; a distinct ac- cessory cell ; 9 out of 8 to apices, about half the length of 8 ; cell open ; 3 twice further from 4 than 4 from 5 at base. Hind wings 8-veined ; cell open ; 3 and 4 together from extremity of submedian vein; 5 a little weaker, removed at base for about one-fifth the breadth of cell ; indistinctly connected with the submedian series. The neuration warrants Dr. Herrich-Schaeffer's inference of the distinctness of the genus, and I think places it near Thalpochares and Eustrotia. The species have bright brown primaries, ornamented often with splashes or lines of silver. The hind wings and abdomen are light gray, con- trasting with the richly colored thorax find primaries. I refer the student to my Illustrated Essay, Van Voorst, London, 1882, for a recapitulation of the characters of generic value in the NoctuidcB ; in my "Check List," 1876, and in different papers these are also given. Secondary se.xual characteristics are, as a rule, of generic vfllue throughout the Suborder. Those who will compare the Genera as estab- lished by Gueni^e, Walker and in Stainton's Manual, with the descriptions I have pub- lished, will see that I have used more characters, following all thathas been published in Germany on the subject. My diagnoses have been copied without acknowledgement by a recent writer, who, in the " Can. Entcmologist," has likewise used my generalizations ii the same way, niixing them with some erroneous statements of his own. 65 Page 38. Brephos, Hubn. This term originates with Hubner, and is older than Archiearis, Hubn., which Zeller proposed to restore. The species described by Boisduval from Cali- fornia, probably do not belong to this genus and I have not included them. From tlie figure of Amphidasys Middendorfii, Lep. Sib., Tab. V., fig. 9, I would refer the species to Leucobrcplios. I have not been able to re-examine Brcpholdes since my original notice of the species. Page 39. Catocala, Schrank. In my original paper (1S72) on the species of this genus I identified and re-described the two kinds established by Guenee under the names oi Vidua, A. & S. (changed by Guer.ee to VLduala, because there was an earlier Vidua in the family) and Desperata. From a study of Abbot's figures, I showed that the Vidua of this author was not that of Guenee, but probably Guenee's Desperata. On the strength of these observations Mr. Hulst proposed to restore Abbot's name for Desperata, and this with- out any additional knowledge of the species figured by Abbot. In fact, there is no evi- dence throughout Mr. Hulst's paper that any original sources had been consulted by him ; the whole argument is carried on from traditional o' unwritten opinions current among the Brooklyn Entomologists, or dictated by a Pennsylvanian collector whose prejudices replace proper judgment and knowledge. My own study of the species, pub- lished ten years since, is also freely used without acknowledgement, wtiile an appearance of originality is shed over the whole, by inverting the usual sequence of the species and giving some irrelevant remarks by way of preface before attacking, most imv.'arrantably, my work in the genus. In the present case I adhere to my original decision with regard to the names of the two forms. Mr. Hulst's proposal would make confusion ; Guenee's original objection to Vidua remains, while, umil Southern material has been thoroughly studied. Abbot's species must be a subject of more or less uncertainty. Page 40, No. 1186, for " Semirelecta " read " Semirelicta." id. The European Nupta is given as American by some authors, but I have not yet recognized the species. If so, it is the only form common to both continents, id. For " Guen. " read " A. & S." as author- ity to No. 1217. id. Insert No. 1217^ Antinympha, Hubn. id. Add " var. Hinda, French," to Innubens. id. The description ol Dejecta is so vague that I have not included the name. Ulalume, equally poorly described. I have included, on the strength of two typical specimens in my collection purchased as such from Mr. Peck, and which appear to me distinct. There is additional uncertainty cast over these two nam- s by the re- marks in the "Brooklyn Bulletin" which go to show that the original determination of " Ulalicmc " has been changed, so that I am not certain which name is the correct one for my material. I think that there is nothing gained by adopting any names proposed by the author of these two, who has antedated his publications and has made an excessive number of redescriptions, under new names, of previously published species. With the above corrections, I think that this hst of our species of Catocala is more accurate than any yet published, and that the value assigned to the different names as designating varieties or species will prove in most cases the true one. Page 42, for " Spargoloma " read " Spargaloma." Page 45, add No. "44K Textrinaria, G. &> R." Page 45, add : " Caulostoma, Led. 62 J^ Occiduaria, Pack." Page 47. Byssodes Obrussata, Grote, Can., Ent., June, 1882, p. iii, is the correct refer- ence for this species, also described in the June number of Papilio, under the name " Cerussaria," which is a printer's error for " Obrussaria" of my Mss. No proofs of any of my papers in that number of " Papilio " were furnished me, wnich accounts for this mistake, besides one or two others of lesser importance. Page 48. The diagnosis of Caterva is given by Dr. Packard on page 216 of his " Mono- graph " under the name " Zerene, Tr." The type of Treitschke's genus is a European moth not congeneric with Catenaria. Page 50, No. 305 for " Antumnata" read " Autumnata." Page 50, No. 346, for " Ferrguata," read " Ferrugata." Names on this list not numbered {i. e. in Hyphantria) are considered to be of doubtful value. I have omitted from this list the names of a few unidentified species of M. Guenee's ; chiefly, in the Noctuidce, of those species described from Abbot's figures, which latter are suftlci'^nily coarse as to make the identification difficult without the plates at hand. Many of Mr. Walker's are not included, as they must be doubtful until his types are worked over. The species in Dr. Harris's correspondence are not included, as the data are not sufficient to identify them at present. I have tried to include all else, and while I have undoubtedly missed some names, I have purposely left out a very f^;w of different authors, from their being described under genera not adopted here, or because no comparison with known forms accompanied the published account of them. Some synonyms have also been omitted, but this mostly in the case of well-known species, and for the purpose of diminishing the bulk of the list. In the Geometritadcs and Tortricidcs, I have given mainly the synonyms occuring in American publications as of most importance to the student. 66 The full synonymy, as far as ascertained, of the species enumerated will be found in other works, accessible to the special student of the literature of the subject. My aim has been to produce a good working "Check List," and not a full " Synonymical Catalogue." But I have endeavoied chiefly to present a reliable Nomenclature ; to give the right generic and specific names as far as possible and in every case. The condition of my health pre- vented my working as continuously.as I wished upon the manuscript ; a work of this kind de- mands steady and patient labor. With re.ojard to the " Brooklyn Check List," it is for the most part a verbal copy of my earlier lists of the moths, while the species described since are very often neglected. It does not give me credit, while taking my various catalogues as its guide, m the Zygcenidcs and BombycidcB no less than in the Noctuidm ; in one instance a printer's error is copied, and it can be easily shown not to have been compiled from the original descriptions of the species. The mistakes are excessive, and where wtiole genera, numerous in species, are taken from my publications, /. e., A^rotis, Hadcna, Mamcstra, etc., the printers seem to have set up from my printed papers. The statement of its authors, that they have attempted any sorting of Hubner's genera, can be shown to be a false one, quite independent of the fact that they have, too evidently, nt ither the knowledge of the subject or its literature to under- take such a task. After appropriating my work in this manner, they ask the Entomological public to consider their List as the foundation for future Lists ! This is impossible, because the foundation of future Lists is the source which the Brooklyn Check List drew upon so generously, viz., my former Lists and Catalogues. I hope the Entomological public in England and elsewhere will not be misled by the " preface " of the " Brooklyn Check List," but will judge it by the facts. While our nomenclature is yet forming, such work is most mischievous, owing to the obligations of the law of priority. Were our species all properly described and named, such publications as those of the Brooklyn Committee would be passed over in merited silence. It is hardly necessary to repeat that, since 1875, I have published separate Lists of the principal genera of Noctuidce, restoring the name ot the describer of the species. This the Brooklyn committee claim the credit of doing. The principal Catalogues and Lists of N. Am. Lepidoptera are as follows. The Butter- flies have been catalogued by Mr. W. H. Edwards and Mr. Scudder. The Catalogue of the latter, published in the Bulletin of the Buffalo Society of Natural Sciences, is yet unfin- ished. Beyond these two important Lists, which only concern the Butterflies, the others are here given: 1. Smithsonian Catalogue of North Am. Lepidoptera, by J. G. Morris, Washington, i860. 2.

P S —The present List was commenced to be printed in May, but owing to delays, arising in part from the nature of the work and the number of proofs, it was not finished by the printer until August, 1882. In the present list the following generic names are used tor the first time- Exedrium. Pri- onoxystus (Xystus; n. b. 1.), Andre^vsia, Hcrrkhia, Pyla ^r^d Farced is (for ^^«. a 'lanie too r^&-a.x^dia\ The name " Packardaria "is used for Racheospda Rubnfrontaria of Dr. Packard, the specific name being used in a very closely allied genus and thus liable to cause confusion The variety 6W//./.Z is proposed to designate the reddish \oxva oi Pseudargyria; Guenee s Ebriosa and Obusta seem much redder and different; it is not certain that they are Heliophite.
