29 A REVISION OF THE LEPIDOPTERA OF TASMANIA. Part II. By A. JEFFERIS TURNER, M.D., F,E.S., Brisbane. (Read 8th August, 1927.) It is necessary to make a f·ew corrections and additions to Part I. Chlorocorna assimilis, Luc., was inoluded owing to a misidentification, which I regret. It must be deleted; and so must Ecpatites callipolu~, Turn., which is a synonym of Mictodoca toxeuta, Meyr. An examination of specimens in· the Littler c.oHec.tion shows that a few species· from Broken Hill and South Australia received by .him have by some mistake had T>a,sma.nian 1abels affixed. I have, of course, not included these, and for the same reasons I think Microdes typhopa, Low., and Sandava xylistis, Swin., should also be deleted. The generic name Pauroneura was used earlier by me in the Gelechiadx, I therefore propose to substitute the name PaurUlioneura for the Hyponome~Ltid genus. The additions will be found ·below.
