The females are readily separated from those of P. leucophoea, as theylack the large brown patch near the apex of the fore wings. 1 have received the eggs of this mothfrom Miss Emily L. Morton, of Newburgh,IT. Y., which hatched July 28th. After-ward, the same season, I received a batchof eggs from Mr. Roland Thaxter, then inAiken, !S. C, where they were laid August.
