Readers of the Canadian Entomologist will recall the controversy between Prof. Smith and myself as to the species described by Walker as Eudryas Stœ. Johannis, the type of which was examined in 1867 by Grote & Robinson, and pronounced a distinct species allied to grate. I had supposed the insect owed its name to the St. John's River, Florida, but,according to Mr. Smith (C. E., XXIV., 133), the type bore a label that it was taken on a church door in England. Mr. Smith, relying on the label, invented the theory that “in some way the pupa of the insect was transported to England, and through the vicissitudes encountered and aberration was produced.” This writer has “no hesitation in referring the species as a suffused aberrant grata.” There is no band on the hind wings, but, nevertheless, it is set down as a “suffused” specimen of grata, which always, so far as known, has a band! For my answer to this, see my paper, Can. Ent. XXV., 320, where, aided by Mr. Tutt's memoranda as to the given English locality on the label, I discussed the pro and con. of the above theory. Now I am in receipt of a letter from Mr. Schaus, that Eudryas Stœ. Johannis has been re-discovered in Mexico. My kind correspondent writes: “It will interest you to know that I have recently seen several specimens of Eudryas Stœ Johannis, Walk., from Mexico; they were sent to Mr. Druce by a native who is now collecting.” Thus the theory of the “vicissitudes of the voyage” vanishes; the specific validity of Stœ. Johannis asserted by us in 1868, before Mr. Smith was (entomologically speaking) born, is vindicated.
