Catocala Coelebs Gr.
The fore wings are black with a grayish white subterminal shade. A strongly marked variety of Badia with the fore wings brown, was mistaken for Coelebs by Mr. Strecker, and was the occasion of its reference to Badia. But a sight of many specimens leads me to believe that the true C. Coelebs, with black fore wings, grades into Badia, and is only to be regarded as a variety of it. But this could not have been predicated of the type. The two extremes are exceedingly distinct and different looking.
Exenterella Grote.
I propose this generic term for Exentera Gr.; preoccupied in Insecta. Now that we have Mr. Scudder's work on genera, there will be more certainty about generic names. I notice that Rhododipsa is not included in Mr. Scudder's list. In speaking of the omissions in my review of it, I did not intend that any idea of purposed favoritism should be conveyed by my words. I merely regretted that some authors should have been so fully and others so sparingly represented. Had the proof of my paper been sent to me, I think I should have changed the wording to a simple expression of this regret.
