Among the North American species known to me in nature, there is not one identical with, or even similar to any European and the opinions of prominent Transatlantic colleagues, as to whether identical species occur in the two countries ( Scel. centaureæ excepted, which is common to the Arctic regions of both continents) are very far divergent. Edwards on the authority of Boisduval cites in his Catalogue, Sylvanus and Tages , and besides, also, comma as American; while he places Pamph.Juba, Manitoba, Colorado, Nevada and sylvanoides (which are regarded as good species by Scudder) as varieties of comma .
