Extract

The name nubilata Pack. which has been generally applied to the species with black hair-pencil at base of primaries on underside and which was figured in the Barnes & McDunnough “Contributions”, will have to be dropped as a homonym. It is preoccupied by C. nubilata Pack., 1867, Proc. Bost. Soc. Nat. Hist., XI, 48, proposed for a Labrador species; this name was later sunk by Moeschler (1870, Stett. Ent. Zt., 368), as a synonym of his lugubrata, an action concurred in by Packard (Mon. Geom., 118) who, however, wrongly transferred the name to another species in a varietal sense.
