Genus UTETHEISA Hubner A genus of small extent, represented both in the Old World and the New by nine species, two of which occur within our territory, (i) Utetheisa bella Linnaeus, Plate XV, Fig. 27, ?. (The Beautiful Utetheisa.) Syn. hybrid J Butler; intermedia Butler; tcrniinalis Ncumaegen & Dyar. This common moth, which frequents the blossoms of the golden-rod (SuIiJago) in the late summer and fall, is widely distributed in the States of the Atlantic seaboard, and shows some tendency to local variation. {2) Utetheisa ornatrix Linnieus, Plate XVII, Fig. 8, $ . (The Ornamented Utetheisa.) Syn. siretclii Butk'r; piira Butler. This species may easily be distinguished from the preceding by the washed-out appearance of the primaries. In the form named pitra by Butler the fore wings are white, immaculate, except for the red costal streak. The species is common in the Antilles, and occurs in southern Florida. Genus HAPLOA Hubner The genus Haploj, which is confined to our territory, has furnished a great deal of amusement to classificationists, who have busied themselves with the spots and markings on the wings of the species, which are very variable. In a long series of specimens of any one of the species it will be found 117. Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readabil
