Extract

On the Report of the Entomologial Club, as given in the Canadian Entomologist for November pp. 246–247, I would make the following remarks:-

Mr. Smith's statement that there are two distinct series in the Sphingidœ, as also that the Smerinthinœ have their probable orgin in Ceratocampid forms of the Bombycidœ are both original with myself. The series Hemaris, Choerocampa and Smerithus belong together. So far as I know, I am the first to show, from imaginal and larval characters, that Choerocampa and Smerinthus are allied, and I am the first to describe an ocellated Choerocampid from Brazil.
