In his note on p. 191, Dr. Dyar raises an interesting question, concerning which I would like a general expression of opinion for my own guidance.

Among the material received for study by M. Guenée from the British Museum, perhaps also from other sources, was a considerable number of specimens and drawings collected, bred or drawn by John Abbott, of Georgia.

Not all of the Abbott drawings went to the British Museum, for I saw some in Paris ten years ago, and not all the Abbott drawings have been identified, for I saw in the British Museum many pictures representing insects thet have not been taken since, so far as I know, while I identified a few recently described, among these century-old drawings.
