The following union of genera, based mainly on the work in the preceding pages, is provisional, and without doubt will be changed more or less as my studies on the group continue, and from the very nature of the case, those who work on this part of the problem will undoubtedly reach different results, due to different causes, such as different ideas of the limitations of genera ; imperfect collections ; incorrectly named specimens in collections ; imperfect material in which generic characters are destroyed ; an insufficient number of specimens of each species to give a clear conception of the range of variation ; lack of skill in preparing specimens to show clearly all the generic characters ; and many other causes.

The Genera of the Tortricidae and Their Types By Prof. C. H. Fernald, Amherst, Mass. The work represented in this paper was begun more than twenty years ago, but because of the pressure of other matters was laid aside and taken up again from time to time as opportunity occurred. It is published at this time, although in an incomplete condition, for the purpose of obtaining the opinion of as many entomologists as possible on the conclusions reached, and the writer would consider it a great favor to have his attention called to errors of omissions, especially of any works that would affect the types, or of genera that properly belong in the family Tortricidae. The rules of nomenclature followed in the preparation of this paper are the International Rules of Zodlogical Nomenclature, adopted by the International Zoological Congress; The Code of the American Ornithologists’ Union ; The Merton Rules, compiled and published by Lord Walsingham and Mr. J. H. Durrant in 1896, and also some others when the cases in question were not provided for in the above. The preference, however, when there is a difference, has been given to the International Rules, for the reason that they are the latest, representing the entire field of zoology, and having an international adoption they will undoubtedly receive general adop¬ tion. Linnaeus divided the Lepidoptera into three genera, Papilio, Sphinx and Phalama , in his Systema Naturae, Ed. X, Vol. I, page 343,1758, which date is the starting point of zoological nomenclature (Int. Rules ; Art. 26). In this work, on page 496, Linnaeus divided the genus Phalczna into seven subdivisions or subgenera, and the fourth, Tortrices , is the one under consideration in this paper. He described twenty-four species under the name Phalcena Tortrix , and the type of Tortrix must be selected, from among those'twenty-four original species (Int. Rules; Art. 30. II, (e) (a).) Februaryj2i, 1908. \432771 2 Sulzer, in his Kennzeichen der Insekten, Plate XVI, fig. 97, 1761, gives, for the type of Tortrix , a colored figure of an insect which he briefly describes and gives the following : “ Anonyma, Linn. S. N. Phalaena Tortrix. an 250 ? ” The species doubtfully referred to is Phalcena Tinea salicella Cl. This species cannot be the type, not only because the identification is doubtful, but because it was not one of the original species under Tortrix. Poda, in his Insecta Musei Graecensis, page 93, Plate 2, fig. 10, 1761, published prasina (quercana Schiff.) and avellana , which was doubtfully referred to corylanci F. by Werneburg in his Beitrage zur Schmetterlingskunde, Vol. I, page 298, 1864, and by Lord Walsing- ham and Mr. Durrant, Ent. Mon. Mag., (2), Vol. VIII, page 39, 1897, and as these gentlemen remark, both of these species are non-Linnaean and consequently the type was not affected. Fabricius, in his Systema Entomologiae (1775), raised the sub¬ divisions that Linnaeus had given under Phalcena to generic rank, placed the Linnaean species of Phalcena Pyralis under Phalcena , omitted the generic name Tortrix and put the generic name Pyralis in its stead. This course was pursued by Latreille, Lamarck and other French authors. Sulzer, in his Abgekiirzte Geschichte der Insecten, Vol. I, page 162, Plate XXIII, fig. 5, 1776, gives “ Ph. T. Alstroemeriana Linn. 314?” as the type of Tortrix , but alstroemeriana L. was not one of the original species under Tortrix , and further, the alstroemeriana of Sul¬ zer was not the same insect as the alstroemeriana of Linnaeus, but, as shown by Mr. L. B. Prout, Ent. Rec., Vol. IX, page 201, 1897, is bicolorata Hfn., one of the Geometridae. Blumenbach, in his Handbuch der Naturgeschichte, Ed. I, Vol. I, page 371, 1779, restricted the type of Tortrix to viridana L., and the same occurs in later editions of his work. This author, there¬ fore, seems to have been the first to fix the type of Tortrix in accord¬ ance with accepted rules. Barbut, in his Genera lnsectorum of Linnaeus, page 198, 1781, re¬ stricted the type to prasinana L., but this species does not agree with the description of Tortrix as given by Linnaeus, and therefore can¬ not be used as the type, and further the type had already been fixed by Blumenbach. 3 Schmiedleins, in his Einleitung in die nahere l£enntnis der ln- sectenlehre, page 321, 1786, gave chlorana L. for the type of Phalana Tortrix, but this cannot hold, as it was not one of the original species. Roemer, in his Genera Insectorum, page 22, 1789, followed the classification of Linnaeus and gave Tortrices with xylosteana L. the only species. In the same work, page 76, in the part devoted to the classification of Fabricius, who raised the group to generic rank but used Pyralis instead of Tortrix for the generic name, Roemer re¬ stricted the type of Pyralis to xylostea?ia L. This action of Roernbr is without effect, as Blumenbach had already, in 1779, restricted the type to viridana L. Borgstroem in Thunberg’s Dissertatio EntomOlogica Sistens In- secta Svecica, Part I, page 18, 1784, raised Tortrix to generic rank. For further references, see Lord Walsingham and Mr. Durrant’s re¬ marks on the type of Tortrix. (Ent. Mon. Mag., (2) Vol. VIII, page 39, 1897). The first author, so far as I have been able to learn, who attempted to break up the heterotypica! genus Torttix L. and establish new genera, was Hiibner, in his Tentamen published in 1806. In this paper Hiibner divided the Tortrices into two tribes and each of these into three divisions. Under the first tribe he gave Plemerophila pariana, which is not now retained among the Tortricids. This is followed by the genus Olethreutes with arcuana (arcuella L.) the only species and the type. The next genus is Archips with oporana (piceana L.) the only species and the type. The second tribe con¬ tains no true Tortricids. The Tineae are divided into three tribes, in the first of which Hiibner established the genus Enyphantes with gelatella (congelatella Cl.) the only species and therefore the type. This species is now regarded as a true Tortricid. In 1820, Billberg issued his Enumeratio Insectorum in Museo Billberg, in which he proposed several new generic names for the Tortricids. I have not seen this work and cannot express a per¬ sonal opinion of its merits. Lord Walsingham and Mr. Durrant, after giving it a most critical and exhaustive examination, state that they “were unable to discover a single genus which can be accepted as valid.” (Ent. Mon. Mag., Vol. XXXVIII, page 163, 1902). After 4 a careful study of their paper it seemed the wisest course to omit Billberg’s Tortricid genera from this paper. Hiibner, in his Zutrage Sammlung exotischer Schmetterlinge, Zweytes Hundert, published in 1823, established two genera with one species under each, which of course formed the type in each * case. The first was the genus Pharmacis for the new species, sar- tana from Pennsylvania, U. S. A., described on page 10, and repre¬ sented in figures 223-4. The second was the genus Eucosma for the new species circulana, also from Pennsylvania, described on page 28, and represented in figures 363-4. Curtis published his British Entomology in sixteen volumes, the first appearing in 1824, and the last in 1839. The first Tortricid genus is Peronea Curt., Brit. Ent., Vol. I, page 15, April 1, 1824, with cristalana Don. (a variety of cristana Schiff.) the type by original designation (Int. Rules ; Art. 30, (a). This genus would have been adopted but for the reason that it was con¬ sidered too near Peroncea Poli ( 1795 ) and Peronia Blainv. (1824). These are what have been called “ doubtful homonyns.” The Inter¬ national Rules of Zoological Nomenclature, Art. 36.—Rec. states as follows : “ It is well to avoid the introduction of new generic names which differ from generic names already in use only in termination or in a slight variation in spelling, which might lead to confusion. But when once introduced such names are not to be rejected on this account.” If we accept this Recommendation, (which seems to me to be the proper thing to do in all such cases) we must adopt Peronea Curt, with the designated type. This genus, however, is not even a doubt¬ ful homonyn of Peroncea Poli and never has been, as Poli never estab¬ lished a genus Pero?icea , but the genus Peronceaderma. See Sher- born’s Index Animalium, pages 735 and 1157 . Cnephasia Curt., Brit. Ent., Vol. Ill, page 100, 1826, with nine species under it, of which logiana was designated as the type. It is evident that this species is not the logiana of Linnaeus, nor does anyone seem to have recognized the Linnaean species from the description or from Clerck’s figure. Stephens, in his Catalogue, Part II, page 18 r, 1829, gave twelve species under Cnephasia Curt., among which was logiana L. ? and under this as synonyms were, logiana Haw. and pascuiana Hb. These last two were given without s the mark of doubt. This same synonomy was given by Haworth in his Lepidoptera Britannica, and all without a mark of doubt. (Lep. Brit., Part III, page 464, 18 n). Curtis, in his Guide, Ed. I, page 171, 1831, gave sixteen species under the genus Cnephasia Curt., among which was logiana L.? with a mark of doubt, and with pascuana Hb. as a synonym, and the same occurs in the second edition of his Guide (1837). I am therefore led to believe that the English con¬ ception of logiana L. at that time was pasivana Hb., notwithstanding the later work of Wood in his Index Entomologicus and that of Stephens in his List, and that pasivana Hb. should be regarded the type. Meyrick, in his Handbook of British Lepidoptera, sinks this genus as a synonym of Tortrix L., but Lord Walsingham seems to have retained it as a subgenus of Tortrix , which seems to me at this time to be the more conservative course. In Franck’s Catalogue, prepared by Hiibner and published in 1825, this same author, on page 98, published the new genus Agapete Hb. with zcegana L. the only species and therefore the type. This species, however, is congeneric with the type of Pharmacis Hb. and Agapete Hb. falls as a synonym of that genus. The part of Hiibner’s Verzeichniss bekannter Schmettlinge* con¬ taining the Tortricidae was not published until 1826, after the ap¬ pearance of Franck’s Catalogue, which, on page 100, offers for sale “ 18 Bogen von Verzeichniss bekannter Schmetterlinge,” or 288 pages. For a discussion of the date of publication of Hiibner’s Ver¬ zeichniss, see the Proceedings of the Fourth International Congress of Zoology, pages 237 to 303, 1898, and the Canadian Entomologist, Vol. XXXII, page 237, 1900, Hiibner established a .large number of new Tortricid genera in his Verzeichniss, but did not indicate the types. He included under his Phalanx septima Tortrices , two tribes, the second of which contains no insects that are now retained among the Tortricids. The first tribe is divided into five Stirps, the first of which contains no insects belonging to the Tortricidae. The second Stirps contains the following genera : Eucosma Hb., page 374, already established with its type in the Zutrage. * It may be of interest to note that on the title page of the Verzeichniss and also on the title pages of the first and second centuries of the Zutrage, Hiibner used the word “ Schmettlinge.” 6 Enarmonia Hb., page 375, with five species under it. Stephens, in his Illustrations of British Entomology, Haustellata, Yol. IV, page 120, 1834, adopted Enarmonia Hb. as a subgenus or subdivision of Carpocapsa Tr. with four species under it, and of these Weberana (woeberiana Schiff.) is the only species that was given under Enarmonia by Hiibner when he first established that genus, and therefore woeberiana Schiff. becomes the type of Enarmonia Hb. (Merton Rule 44). Stephens in the above named work was the first to adopt any of Hiibner’s Tortricid generic names. Cydia Hb., page 375, with pomonana Schiff. ( pomonella L.), aspidis- cana Hb. and monetulana Hb.(cana Haw.)under it. In 1829, Treitschke established the genus Carpocapsa with pomonana Schiff. ( pomonella L.) and four other species under it (Die Schmetterlinge von Europa, Vol. VII, page 231, 1829). Curtis, in his British Entomology, Vol. VIII, page 332, 1831, designated pomonellaH. as the type of Carpocapsa. Stephens, in his Illustrations, Haust., Vol. IV, page 119, 1834, adopted Hiibner’s Cydia as a subdivision of his Carpocapsa , with pomonella L., splendana Hb., grossana Haw. and aspidiscana Hb. This restriction leaves only the first and last as possible types for Cydia, but as pomonella L. had previously been designated as the type of Carpocapsa Tr., the only species left for the type of Cydia is aspidiscana Hb. (Merton Rules 44 and 45 ; Stiles and Hassell, Bulletin No. 79, page 58, Bureau of Animal Industry, Washington, D. C\). Epiblema Hb., page 365, with twelve species under it. Stephens adopted this name for a division of his genus Spilonota, with fcenella L. ( tibialana Hb.) the only species under it. (Ill., Vol. IV, page 92, 1834). In the same work, page 122, Epiblema Hb. is used for a sub¬ division of Carpocapsa , but No. 48 of the Merton Rules requires that the “ first limitation shall be taken as restricting the type,"’ and therefore fcenella L. must be taken as the type of Epiblema Hb., but fcenella L. is congeneric with circulana Hb., the type of Eucosma, and therefore Epiblema falls as a synonym of Eucosma. Ancylis Hb., page 376, with eight species under it. Treitschke (Schmett. Eur., Vol. VII, page 232, 1829) established his genus Phoxopteris with all of Hiibner’s species under it except vappana Hb., which neither Treitschke nor any later author seems to have been able to recognize with any certainty. As Treitschke entirely 7 disregarded all of Hubner’s genera and did not restrict Ancylis Hb. under its own name, his restriction cannot hold. (Merton Rules, No. 44).* Stephens published his Catalogue of British Lepidoptera in 1829, but later in that year than Treitschke’s Volume VII, which contains his list of genera and species of the Tortricids. This volume of Treitschke has the date 1829 on the title page, and December, 1828, at the end of the preface, presumably the time it went to press. Stephens’ Catalogue bears the date 1829 on the title page, but has no date after the introduction. In this Catalogue, Stephens estab¬ lished the genus Anchyloperci, page 177, with eleven species under it, two of which, uncana Hb. and siculana Hb., were also under Ancylis Hb. Stephens, in his Illustrations, Vol. IV, page 109, 1834, re¬ tained his genus Anchylopera, which he says “ nearly corresponds with Ancylis of Hiibner,” and sunk Ancylis Hb. as a synonym, and Curtis (British Entomology, Vol. VIII, page 376, 1831), designated lundana F. as the type of Anchylopera Steph. Lord Walsingham (Ent. Mon. Mag., Vol. XLIII, page 151, 1907) named laetana F. (harpana Hb.) for the type of Ancylis Hb. Epicharis Hb., page 376, with derasana Hb. and lundana F. under it. This genus is a homonym and cannot be used in this connec¬ tion, as it was used by Klug for a genus of the Hymenoptera in Illi- ger’s Magazine, Vol. VI, page 226, 1807. As lundana F. was made the type of Anchylopera Steph., the type of Epicharis must be de¬ rasana Hb., but as these two species are congeneric and as Epicharis Hb. is a homonym, we must use Anchylopera Steph. Astatia Hb., page 377, with parmatana Hb. ( solandriana L.) and tenerana Hb. under it. Stephens, in his Illustrations, page 83, adopted Astalia Hb. as a subdivision of his genus Ditula, with three species under it, only one of which, sylvana , a variety of solandriana L. was given by Hiibner, and therefore this species must be the type, but this species is congeneric with circulana Hb., the type of Eucosma Hb., and therefore Astatia Hb. falls as a synonym of that genus. * It is surprising that Treitschke should have ignored all of Hubner’s generic names. It has been said that he had not seen Hubner’s Verzeichniss, and therefore could not make use of the genera it contained, but he made frequent references to it in his Schmetterlinge von Europa, as in Vol. VI, pages 72 and 180 ; Vol. VII, pages 38 and 76; Vol. VIII, pages 36 and 261, and must have had the Verzeichniss before him when he was preparing the part of his work on the Tortricids. . Epinotia Hb., page 377, with eight species under it. Stephens (Illustrations, page 93) adopted Epinotia for a subdivision of his genus Spilonota , but of the species given under it by Stephens, strsemiana F. ( similana Hb.) is the only one given by Hiibner un¬ der' Epinotia , and it must therefore be the type, but this species is congeneric with the type of Eucosma Hb., and Epinotia falls as a synonym of that genus. Hemimene Hb., page 378, with eleven species under it. Stephens, in his Illustrations, page 96, adopted this genus, but changed it to Heusimene with jimbriana Haw. the only species under it. In his Catalogue, Part 2, page 174, Stephens doubtfully made dorsana Hb. a synonym of jimbriana Haw. In his List of British Animals in the British Museum, Part X, Lepidoptera (hereafter referred to as List), page 52, 1852, he used the generic name Heusimene , but omitted dorsana Hb. as a synonym of Jimbriana Haw., the only species, and therefore this genus must’be regarded as distinct from Hemimene Hb. as the single species given under it at first was not used by Hiibner under his Hemimene when first established. Stephens adopted the name Heusimene as a subgenus of Pseudotomia in his Illustrations, page 99, with twelve species, three of which were in the original list given by Hiibner under Hemimene. In his List, Stephens used Hemimene in a subgeneric sense on pages 47, 50 and 56, but on page 58 he used it in a generic sense as a synonym of Dichrorampha Gn. with petiverella L. and sequana Hb., two of the three original species used in his Illustrations. Meyrick, in his Handbook of British Lepidoptera, adopted this genus with these two species and nine others, and therefore did not fix the type. We may take petiverella L. as the type. (Int. Rules, Art. 30, III. Rec. k. and n.) Pammene Hb., page 378, with two species under it, trauniana Schiff. and mediana Schiff. On page 394 of this same work, Hiibner established the genus Eucelis with mediana Schiff. the only species and therefore the type, leaving trauniana Schiff. for the type of Pammene. Stephens, in his Illustrations, page 103, also restricted the type of Pammene to trauniana Schiff. Evetria Hb., page 378, with five species under it. Stephens adopted this genus for a subdivision of his genus Orthotania (Ill., page 179, 1834), with three species under it, hawarthana Steph. 9 (schulziana F.), resinella Steph. (non L.) ( pinivorana Zell.) and comi- tana Schifif. (tedella CL, piceana Hb.), of which this last species is the only one that was given by Hiibner in his original list under Evetria, and therefore tedella Cl. becomes the type of this genus. This species, however, is congeneric with circulana Hb., and therefore Evetria falls as a synonym of Eucosma Hb. I followed Meyrick in adopting Evetria with resinella L. as the type restricted by Stephens, in Dyar’s List of N. A. Lepidoptera (1902), but the species described by this author in his Illustrations, page 179, was not the Linnaean resinella which Hiibner used under his Evetria. See Stephens’ List, page 53, No. 4, 1852. Argyroploce Hb., page 379, with two species under it. Stephens, in his List, page 70, restricted the type to arbutella L. If we ac¬ cept the opinion of Lord Walsingham, that the structural characters of arcuella Cl., the type of Oleihreutes Hb., are generically different from those of the other species usually placed with arcuella Cl., then most of the genera that are made synonyms of Olethreutes Hb. in this paper should be placed elsewhere. Rhyacionia Hb., page 379, with five species under it ( hastana Hb. (non L.) ; buoliana Schiff. ; gemmana Hb. ; turionana Hb. and ministrana L.). On page 392 in the same work, Hiibner established the genus Eulia , with ministrana L. the only species and type, thus eliminating this species from Rhyacionia Hb. The second and third names, buoliana and gemmana , represent one species, so that there are only three species left from which to select the type. Stephens, in his Illustrations, page 178, adopted Rhyacionia for a subdivision of the genus Orthotcenia , with turionana (buoliana Schiff.), gemmana Hb. and bentleyana Don. under it, but on page 180, he adopted Rhya¬ cionia Hb. as a genus, with hastiana L. the only species under it. In accordance with Merton Rule No. 48, we should accept this last. This, however, is impossible, as the hastiana of Stephens is neither the true Linnaean species of that name nor hastana Hb., but is ul mana Hb. (See Stephens’ List, page 48.) Hiibner supposed his hastana was the Linnaean hastiana , as shown in his Yerzeichniss, page 379, and also in his Systematisch-alphabetisches Verzeichniss, page 61, 1822. As he spelled his hastana different from the way that Linnaeus spelled his hastiana , the two names have been retained for these two species. We are obliged, therefore, as the Stephens March 14, 1908. 2 10 type of Rhyacionia , on page 180, is a species not given originally un¬ der Rhyacionia, to reject this and take the restriction on page 178, where turionana Steph. (non Hb.) ( buoliana Schiff.) ; gemmana Hb. (a synonym of the same), and bentleyana Don. ( schultziana F.) are the only species given, and as the last was not given by Hubner, buoliana Schiff. becomes the type of this genus. Lord Walsingham names this same species as the type in The Annals and Magazine of Natural History (7), Vol. V, page 124, 1900. Notocelia Hb., page 380, with six species under it. Stephens, in his Illustrations, page 92, used this name for a division of his genus Spilonotci , but on page 137 he used it as a genus, with udmatmiana L. (uddmanniana L.) the only species, and therefore the type (Mer¬ ton Rule 48, (2).). Hedya Hb., page 380, with five species. Stephens, in his Illus¬ trations, page 89, adopted this name for a subdivision of his genus Antithesia, with salicella L. the only species and therefore the type (Merton Rule 48 (1).), but this species is congeneric with arcuella Cl., and therefore Hedya falls as a synonym of Olethreutes. Apotomis Hb., page 380, with five species under it, all of which are congeneric with the type of Olethreutes , and therefore Apotomis Hb. falls as a synonym of that genus, and we take corticana Hb. as the type. Limma Hb., page 380, with two species, both of which are con¬ generic with the type of Olethreutes , and Limma therefore falls as a synonym of Olethreutes Hb., and inundana Schiff. may be consid¬ ered the type. Asthenia Hb., page 381, with five species under it. Stephens, in his Illustrations, page 181, used this name for a subdivision of his genus Eupoecilia with five species, two of which ( pygmceana Hb. and permixtana Hb.) were of the original species given under Asthenia. The same author, in his List, pages 34 and 80, used Asthenia in a subgeneric sense, but in neither case did he use either of the above species. Wilkinson, in his British Tortrices, page 211, 1859, used Asthenia as a genus, and restricted the type to pygmaeana Hb. Laspeyresia Hb., page 381, with three species under it. Meyrick restricted the type to corollana Hb. See Handbook of British Lepi- doptera, page 511, 1895. Phiaris Hb., page 381, with two species, metallica Hb. (a misprint for metallicana Hb.) and micana Hb. under it. Stephens, in his Illustrations, page 134, used Phiaris for a subdivision of his genus Sericoris, with micana Hb. ? the only species under it, but as shown in his List, page 73, this was not the true micana Hb., and on the same page he restricted the type to the true micana Hb., but this species is congeneric with arcuella L., and therefore Phiaris falls as a synonym of Olethreutes Hb. Celypha Hb, page 382, with four names representing three species, as the fourth is a synonym of the third. Stephens, in his Illustrations, page 131, used Celypha for a division of his Sericoris , but in his List, page 71, he made Celypha a synonym of Orthotcenia with three species under it, one of which, striana Schiff., was one of the original species under Celypha , and this species must be regarded as the type, but as this species is congeneric with the type of Ole- threutes, Celypha falls as a synonym of that genus. Eudemis Hb., page 382, with eleven species under it. Stephens first.used Eudemis in a subgeneric sense in his Illustrations, page 84, with four species under it, all of which he united under ptofundana Schiff. in his List, page 42, and therefore profundana F. ( porphy - rana Hb.) becomes the type of Eudemis Hb. (Merton Rule 48 (1).) As this species is congeneric with the type of Olethreutes , Eudemis Hb. falls as a synonym of that genus. Syndemis, page 382, with eight species under it. Herrich-Schaef- fer, in his Schmetterlinge von Europa, Vol. IV, page 275, 1851, adopted this genus of Hiibner, but used none of the original species under it, and therefore did not aid in fixing the type. Stephens, in his List, page 67, adopted this genus, with musculana Hb. the only species, and one of the original species under Syndemis , and therefore the type. This species is congeneric with the type of Archips Hb., and therefore Syndemis Hb. falls as a synonym of Archips. Episagma IJb., page 383, with two species under it ( schrebenana L. and semimaculana Hb.). Stephens, in his Illustrations, page 81, used Episagma Hb. doubtfully for a division of his Lozotamia with schreberiana L. ?, and again on page 139, for a division of his Poecilochroma with solandriana L. the only species, but not one of the original species. In his List, page 91, Stephens repeated his first 12 restriction in his Illustrations, but without the expressed doubt, so that we must consider schreberiana L. (dimidiana Cl.) as the type, but this species is congeneric with the type of Olethreutes, and Epi- sagma falls as a synonym of that genus. Acalla Hb., page 383, with four species under it. Stephens, in his Illustrations, page 141, adopted Acalla for a division of his genus Poecilochroma with maculana Steph. (ophthalmicana Hb.) the only species and type. Meyrick, in his British Lepidoptera, used Acalla for the species formerly placed under Teras Tr., but as shown above Stephens had already restricted the type to the first species in 1834. This species, however, is congeneric with the type of Eucosma Hb., and Acalla Hb. falls as a synonym of that genus. Ablabia Hb., page 383, with three species under it. The second, however, is a synonym of the third. Stephens (Ill., page 126) adopted this genus with only one species, quadripunctana Steph. ( pratana Hb., osseana Sc.) the first given by Hubner under Ablabia , thus fixing it the type, but this species is congeneric with the type of Cnephasia Curt., and therefore Ablabia Hb. falls as a synonym of that genus. Acleris Hb., page 384, with nine species under it, all of which are congeneric. Stephens, in his Illustrations, page 161, adopted this genus with three divisions under it, the first of which, with the same name, has four species : subtripunctulana Steph. ( aspersana Hb.) ; gnomana Haw. ( ferrugana Schiff.); tripunctulana Haw. (_ ferrugana Schiff.) and bifidana Haw. {ferrugana Schiff.), thus representing but two species; aspersana Hb. and ferrugana Schiff., the first of which was the only original species under Acleris, and must therefore be the type. Hubner used the name ferrugana Schiff. {rufana Hb., Tor. 127) in his original List, but Hiibner’s rufana is a different species from the true ferrugana Schiff. which was used by Stephens, as shown above. Westwood, in his Generic Synopsis, page 108, 1839, named gnomana L. for the type of Acleris , but Westwood’s conception of gnomana was not that of Clerck, but was the ferrugana of Schiffermiiller, which was not one of the original species. The type had already been fixed by Stephens in 1834, as shown above. Lopas Hb., page 384, with eight names under it, representing five species. Stephens, in his Illustrations, page 148, use&Lopas Hb. first for a division under Peronea with fifteen names under it, all of which i3 represent cristana Schiff., or varieties of this species, and as sericana Hb., the only variety of cristana Schiff. given under Lopas, is the same variety as fulvocristana given by Stephens under his division of Lopas, we must regard cristana Schiff. as the type, but this species is congeneric with the type of Peronea Curt., and therefore Lopas Hb. falls as a synonym of that genus. Rhacodia Hb., page 384, with five species under it, the first three of which are emargana F. and varieties. Stephens, in his Illustra¬ tions, page 166, removed the two remaining species ( rosana L and forskaleana L.) to other genera, but sunk Rhacodia Hb. as a synonym of Teras Tr., with only emargana F. and its varieties under it (Ill., page 166), and therefore this species must be taken as the type. This species, however, is now considered congeneric with the type of Peronea Curt., and therefore Rhacodia Hb. falls as a synonym of that genus. Eclectis Hb., page 385, with five names under it, representing two species, ( variegana Schiff. and hastiana L.). Stephens, in his Illus¬ trations, page 153, and more fully in his List, page 14, restricted the type to hastiana L. This species, and, in fact, all the species given by Hiibner under this genus, are congeneric with the type of Peronea Curt., and therefore Eclectis falls as a synonym of that genus. Teleia Hb., page 385, with four names under it representing three species : abietana Hb.; scabrana Hb. ( hastiana L.) and sudoriana Hb. ( 'lipsiana Schiff.), all of which are congeneric with the type of Peronea Curt., and therefore Teleia falls as a synonym of that genus. Stephens, in his illustrations, page 163, used Teleia Hb. for a sub¬ division of his Acleris, with scabrana Steph. (non Hb.) the only species under it. As this was not one of the original species, it can¬ not be the type (Int. Roles, Art. 30), but we may consider abietana Hb. as the type of Teleia Hb. Aphania Hb., page 386, with four species under it. Stephens adopted Aphania Hb. as a subdivision under his genus Ditula, (Ill., page 86) with two species only, one of which (scriptana Hb.) was given by Hiibner in the original list, which therefore becomes the type, but this species is congeneric with the type of Olethreutes Hb. and therefore Aphania falls as a synonym of that genus. 4 Oxigrapha Hb., page 386, with six names under it, representing literana L. and varieties of it so that this species is the type. This, however, is congeneric with the'type of Peronea Curt, and therefore Oxigrapha Hb. falls as a synonym of that genus. Sparganothis Hb., page 386, with pilleriana Schiff. and seven other species under it. Stephens in his List, page 9, makqs Spar¬ ganothis a synonym of Oenectra Guen. (1845) with pilleriana Schiff. the only species under it, thus restricting the type of Sparganothis Hb. to pilleriana Schiff. Doloploca Hb., page 387, with two species ( pundulana Schiff. and lutosana Hb.) under it. Stephens adopted this genus for a division or Cnephasia, changing the spelling to Dolophora, (Ill., p. 127, cor¬ rected to Dolophoca, in the Errata) with longana Haw. and ictericana Haw. under it. These two names represent the two sexes of one species, but longana Haw. was not one of the original species. Hiib- ners’s lutosana has been doubtfully referred to longana Haw., but no one seems to know with any certainty what Hiibner’s species really is, and therefore it is doubtful if Stephens used an original species under his division Dolophora and in this case he did nothing towards fixing the type. Lederer adopted the genus Doloploca Hb. with punctulana Schiff., the only species and therefore the type. (Wien. Ent. Monats., Vol. III., page 253, 1859.) Oporinia Hb., page 387, with two species, hyemana Hb. ( iortricella Hb.) and rugosana Hb. under it. This genus, however, is preoccu¬ pied on page 322 of Hiibners’s Verzeichniss and therefore cannot be used in this place. Stephens (Ill., page 234) restricted the type to tortricella Hb. Exapate Hb., page 387, with gelatana Hb. (congelatella Clerck), the only species and therefore the type, but this same species is the type of Enyphantes Hb. and Exapate Hb. falls as a synonym of that genus. Cacoecia Hb., page 388, with six species under it, all of which are congeneric with piceana L., the type of Archips. Hb., and therefore Caccecia falls as a synonym of Archips. Stephens (Ill., page 74, and List, page 6) restricted the type to podana Sc., cratcegana Hb., rosana L. and xylosteana L., and of these we will name xylosteana L. as the type. *5 Pandemis Hb., page 388, with nine species under it. Stephens used Pandemis Hb., changed to Pandemia , for a subdivision of Lozo- icenia , in his Illustrations, page 70, and without change of spelling in his List, page 4, but without restriction enough to aid materially in fixing the type. Lederer in his classification of the European Tor- tricidae (Wien. Ent. Monats., Vol. III., page 243, 1859) adopted Pan¬ demis Hb. as a subdivision of Tortrix, with six species under it and three of these, textana Hb. ( corylana F.), ribeana Hb. and carpiniana Hb. ( heparana Schiff.) were original species. If no one has already fixed the type we will name corylana as the type of Pandemis Hb. Philedone Hb., page 389, with three species under it. Stephens in his Illustrations, page 78, used Philedone for a division of his Lozotcenia , but later, on page 81, he used it as a genus with gerning- iana (gerningana Schiff.) the only original species under it and therefore the type. (Merton Rule 48). Epagoge Hb., page 389, with three species under it. Stephens in his Illustrations, page 79, restricted the type to flavana Hb. (grot- iana F.) Amelia Hb., page 390, with three species under it. Stephens used this name for a subdivision of his genus Dictyopteryx (III., page 169) with three species under it, only one of which, rombana Hb. (viburnana F.) was an original species under Amelia and this must be taken for the type, but viburnana F. is congeneric with viridana L. and Amelia falls as a synonym of Tortrix L. Nephodesme Hb., page 390, with six species under it. Stephens used this name, changing it to Nephodesma , in his Illustrations, first on page 127, for a division of his genus Cnephasia , with penziana Thunb. the only species and therefore the type, but this species is congeneric with the type of Cnephasia Curt., and therefore Nepho¬ desme falls as a synonym of that genus. Aphelia Hb., page 390, with five names, representing four species. Stephens (Ill., page 68), made this genus a synonym of Tortrix L., with viridana L., palleana Tr. (_ paleana Hb.) and viburnana F., and as these are original species one. of them must be selected as the type. We will name viburnana F. as the type, but this species is congeneric with the type of Tortrix , and therefore Aphelia Hb. falls as a synonym of Tortrix L. i6 Euxanthis Hb., page 391, with three species; hamana L., zoegana L. and diversana Hb. This last, however, is a synonym of hamana L., and both species are congeneric with sartana Hb., the type of Pharmacis Hb., and therefore Euxanthis Hb. falls as a synonym of that genus. We may consider hamana L. as the type. Thiodia Hb., page 391, with two species, citrana Hb. and sulphu- rana Hb., under it. Stephens, in his List, page 63, adopts Thiodia as a genus with citrana Hb. the only species and therefore the type. This species is congeneric with aspidiscana Hb., the type of Cydia Hb., and Thiodia Hb. falls as a synonym of that genus. Aleimma Hb., page 391, with four species , plumb ana Hb. ( loefting - iana L.), contaminana Hb., ectypana Hb. (/ oeflingiana L.) and forskal- eana L. Stephens, in his Illustrations, page 170, adopted Aleimma Hb. for a division of his genus Dictyopteryx , and restricted the type to loeflingiana L. and forskaleana L., but both of these species are con¬ generic with viridana L., the type of Tortrix , and Aleimma Hb. falls as a synonym of Tortrix with loeflingiana L. named as the type by Westwood in his Generic Synopsis, page 109, 1839. Eulia Hb., page 392, with ministrana L. the only species and therefore the type. Commophila Hb., page 392, with two species, lediana Hb. (schrei- bersiana Frol.) and ceneana Hb. Stephens, in his Illustrations, page 174, used Commophila Hb. for a subdivision of his genus Argyrotoza with two species under it, neither of which was given by Hiibner under Commophila. On page 176 he used Commophila again for a subdivision of his genus Argyrolepia with ceneana Hb. and bistrigana Steph., and as aeneana was the only original species it must be taken for the type, but this species is congeneric with the type of Pharma¬ cis Hb., and therefore Commophila Hb. falls as a synonym of that genus. The later restriction of this genus by Meyrick is without effect. Crceesia Hb., page 392, with three species under it. Stephens first used Crcesia Hb. for a subdivision of his genus Lozotcenia , with holmiana L. the only species and type (Ill., page 81), but this species is congeneric with the type of Peronea Curt., and therefore Crcesia Hb. falls as a synonym of Peronea Curt. Panoplia Hb., page 393, with two species, augustana Hb. ( cruciana L.) and lecheana L. Stephens, in his Illustrations, page 80, used Panoplia Hb. for a subdivision of his Lozotcenia, with cruciana L. the only species and therefore the type. I am not able to determine whether or not this genus is preoccupied by Panoplia Heyd. estab¬ lished for a genus of the mites and published in Isis, Vol. VI, page 6o8, 1826. The type of Panoplia Hb. is congeneric with the type of Enarmonia Hb., and therefore Panoplia Hb. falls as a synonym of that genus. Phalonia Hb., page 393, with two species, decimana Schiff. and tesserana Schiff. ('aleella Schulze). Stephens, in his List, page 77, made Phalonia Hb. a synonym of Chrosis Guen. (1845), with tesse¬ rana Schiff. and audouinana Dup. under it, but as this last species was not used by Hiibner we must regard the former as the type of Phalonia. Chlidonia Hb., page 393, with six species under it. Stephens, in his Illustrations, page 187, says his genus Lozopera is almost synono- mous with Chlidonia Hb., and in his List, page 79, he used Chlidonia for a division of his genus Argyrolepia , with mussehliana Tr. the only species, but this cannot be the type, as it was not one of the original species (Int. Rules, Art. 30). Meyrick adopted Hiibner’s Chlidonia , restricting the type to baumanniana Schiff. (hartmanniana Cl.) (Brit. Lep., page 554, 1895). Dapsilia Hb., page 394, with three species under it. Stephens, in his List, page 78, adopted this genus, with rutilana Hb. the only species and therefore the type, but this species is congeneric with the type of Phalonia Hb., and Dapsilia Hb. falls as a synonym of Phalonia Hb. Eucelis Hb., page 394, with mediana Hb. (aurana F.) the only species and therefore the type. Eugnosta Hb., page 394, with three species under it. Stephens, in his Illustrations, page 176, used Hiibner’s Eugnosta for a division of his genus Argyrolepia , with the first two of Hiibner’s species under it, and again in his List, page 96, he made Eugnosta Hb. a synonym of Argyroptera , but used only the first of Hiibner’s species, lathoni- March 19, 1908. 3 ana Hb., which may be regarded as the type. This species, how¬ ever, is congeneric with the type of Pharmacis Hb., and therefore Eugnosta Hb. falls as a synonym of that genus. Clysia Hb., page 409, with two species, hybridella Hb. and am- biguella Hb. Stephens, in his Illustrations, page 245, used Clysia Hb. for a subdivision of his genus Telea, with ambiguella Hb. the only species and therefore the type. Amphisa Curt., Brit. Ent., Yol. IV, page 209, 1828, with pectinana Hb. (gerningana Schiff.) designated as the type, but this same species is the type of Philedone Hb., and Amphisa Curt, falls as a synonym of that genus. See Stephens’ Illustrations, page 81, 1834. In the seventh volume of his Die Schmetterlinge von Europa, pub¬ lished in 1829, Treitschke gave a list of genera and species of the Tortricidae (pages 227 to 234). Only the new genera proposed by Treitschke which really belong to this family are here considered. The first new genus is Pendina Tr., page 227, with eight species under it, corrected to Penthina in Yol. VIII of the same work. Stephens, in his Illustrations, page 87, named salicana Schiff. (sali- cella L.) as the type, and Duponchel, in his Histoire Naturelle des Lepidopteres de France, Vol. IX, page 21, 1834, named the same species as the type. Curtis, in his British Entomology, Vol. XII, page 567, 1835, and Westwood, in his Generic Synopsis, page 107, designated corticana Hb. for the type, but the type established by Stephens must be accepted (Int. Rules, Art. 30, II ( g ).). The type fixed by Stephens, however, is congeneric with the type of Olethreuies Hb., and therefore Pendina Tr. {Penthina Tr.) falls as a synonym of that genus. Coccyx Tr., page 230, with seven species under it. Sodoffsky changed this name to Strobila, which, as he said, is more character¬ istic of the habits of these insects. (Bull. Kais. naturfors. Gesell. Moskau, Sep., page 19, 1837). Duponchel, Hist. Nat. Lep. Fr., Vol. IX, page 21, 1834, named turionana Hb. as the type, but this can¬ not be used, as it was not one of the original species under Coccyx (Int. Rules, Art. 30, II (
