In Trans. Am. Ent. Soc., 20: 276, 1893, I described Nomada Sayi from eight female and fifteen male specimens. At present I have fortyfive female and ninety male specimens which I have referred to this species, but which I now propose to describe under the three following names:Nomada Sayi, Rob.— ♀. Mandibles simple, antennæ long, joint 4 longer than 3 or 5, as long as 12; or nearly so, pygidium rather broadly truncate; scutellum sub-bilobed, prominent; enclosure of metathorax coarsely reticulated at base, finely roughened beyond; head and thorax closely and coarsely punctured; abdomen shining, rather sparsely and finely punctured; ferruginous, the scape, front and middle legs, tubercles and tegulæ, more yellowish; about antennæ, about ocelli, occiput, band on mesonotum, middle of metathorax sometimes, band from wings to middle and hind coxæ, base of femora behind more or ress, sometimes hind metatarsi, base of abdomen, sometimes apical margins of segments more or less, and sutures, generally blach or blackish; segments 2 and 3 of abdomen with a yellow spot on each side; wings hyaline, marginal cell and apical margins clouded, basal nervure ending before transverse median. Length, 6–8 mm.

Melitæa Augusta.Male.—Expands from 1.6 to 1.75 inch; belongs to Chalcedon group, but is an conspicuously red as the species Chalcedon is black; upper side black, the surface nearly covered with light red and pale yellow spots, disposed as in the group; the basal areas dusted with yellow scales which, on primaries, extend along both margins; costa of same wing edged red; both hind margins bordered by small red spots, varying in shape, sometimes narrow and as of a broken stripe, sometimes more or lesss rounded to ovate; the spots of second row ar small, lunular, largest of secondaries, edged with red, the interior being yellow, or they are nearly all red with a small yellow patch in middle; sometimes this yellow is thinly washed red; the third row on primaries is either wholly yellow, or yellow with red edges, particularly on the outer side; on secondaries wholly red, and often very deep, so as to make a conspicuous broad band; the fourth row on primaries is red, sometimes with the spots next the two margins either yellow or in put yellow; around the end of cell yellow spots four or five in number; in the cell spots of red and yellow alternately, four in all, the yellow one at base more or less stained red; two yellow spots below cell with black ground between, and nearer base a small duplex red one; the fourth row on secondaries is yellow, either of small spots or pretty large ones, and the three or four from costal margin are red on their outer side; a red stripe outside the cell from the end to costal margin; two small yellow spots inside cell, with a red one between them and a yellow spot below; fringes yellow, black at the tips of the nervules.

Aegiale Streckeri, n. sp., ♂.—Expands from2¼ inches to 3 inches. Upper side.—Superiors rich brown, but not as bright, nor has the brown as much red in it, as in yuccœ. There are three sub-apical costal white spots; a lemon-yellow spot at end of cell; there is a row of five yellow spots running across the wing, parallel with the exterior margin; the upper two are small and square in shape; the lowe three are small and triangular, and there is one in each of the three median interspaces. The inferiors have a yellow marginal border about 1/8 inch in width, the wing being otherwise immaculate, and is clothed with long, silky brown hair. Under side.—Superiors have the spots repeated. Inferiors are gray with a varying number of small white spots—one specimen having two and the other five. The female is larger and has the same number of spots as the male; the three sub-apical spots are white and the remainder yellow; in the female the five spots on the wing are in two series, the two upper being nearer the exterior margin, and the three lower are nearer the base; in the other words, they do not form a continuous line as in the male. This species has been confounded, in collections, with cofaqui, Strecker, which was described froma female. The male of cofaqui, is marked practically like the female, but the male has the long hair on the inferiors as in the new species.

AbstractFalcaustra papuensis sp. nov. (Ascaridida, Kathlaniidae) from the large intestine of Sphenomorphus simus (Squamata, Sciencidae) is described and illustrated. Falcaustra papuensis represents the 4th Australo-Papuan species assigned to this genus and is distinguished from other Australo-Papuan species by the distribution pattern of caudal papillae (6 precloacal, 6 adcloacal, 8 postcloacal, and 1 median), length of spicules (561–714 μm) and presence of a pseudosucker. Sphenomorphus simus was found to harbor 2 additional species of nematodes, Meteterakis crombiei and Oswaldocruzia bakeri. Sphenomorphus simus represents a new host record for each of these nematode species.

Piriqueta pampeana, a new species of Turneraceae, is described and illustrated here. The species occurs in the municipalities of Alegrete, Maçambará, Manoel Viana and São Francisco de Assis, in the western region of Rio Grande do Sul state, Brazil. It resembles Piriqueta suborbicularis and Piriqueta taubatensis, but can be distinguished by the presence of a pair of discoid basilaminar nectaries, a pair of petiolar nectaries and small nectaries distributed along the leaf margin, sepals with acute apex and a yellow spot at the base of the petals. Due to the intense environmental degradation of  its habitat, and according to IUCN guidelines, we ranked the species as “Endangered” (EN).

Melitaea Fulvia.Male.—Expands 1.5 inch.Upper side brown-black over basal area of each wing, somewhat dusted rvith fulvous; or the ground color is partly replaced by fulvous, especially in the cells ; the costal margin and apex of primaries black, and both hind margins are narrowly edged by black ; all the nervures and branches black ; remainder of wings fulvous ; both have a submarginal series of fulvous spots, preceded by a black line, those of primaries at apex replaced by yellow, or obsolete ; beyond the black line a complete common series of small yellow spots ; a second on the disk, larger, and on secondaries elongated, sometimes very much so, and more or less confluent with the spots of the outer row ; on primaries a large yellow spot, edged with fulvous, next inside arc of cell, and two or three small yellow spots below this ; in cell of secondaries a small similar spot, but sometimes wanting ; fringes alternately and equally black and white.

A New Species

The genus Orybina Snellen, 1895, a member of tribe Pyralini of the subfamily Pyralinae and family Pyralidae, was established as the objective replacement name for Oryba Walker, 1863. The original genus Oryba was established for its type species Oryba flaviplaga Walker, 1863 (by monotypy) from North Hindostan [North India]. Recently, the genus is reviewed by Qi et al. (2017) with inclusion of eight species and one subspecies in the World: Orybina kobesi Roesler, 1984, Orybina plangonalis (Walker, 1859), Orybina regalis (Leech, 1889), Orybina bellatulla Qi & Li, 2017, Orybina puerensis Qi & Li, 2017, Orybina hoenei Caradja, 1935, Orybina flaviplaga (Walker, 1863), Orybina imperatrix Caradja, 1925 and Orybina flaviplaga kiangsualis Caradja, 1925. The genus can be diagnosed by the rosteriform labial palpi, forewings reddish-brown or saffron, with a yellow spot (except in Orybina bellatulla). In the male genitalia uncus is triangular or tongue-shaped, and valvae are enlarged apically. In the female genitalia, the anterior apophyses and posterior apophyses are short, the ductus bursae usually coiled anteriorly, and the ovate corpus bursae is without signum (Qi et al. 2017).
