Extract

The speciles of the laudabilis group, formerly included in the Hadenine genus Polia but now placed in the recently erected genus Lacinipolia McD., have always proved more or less of a stumbling block to taxonomists. Variation in the individual species, combined at times with a certain amount of sex-dimorphism, has been partially responsible for the confusion, which of late years has been increased by the addition of certain of Strand's names, based on Hampson's so-called “aberrations,” and other names proposed in a varietal sense by Draudt for Mexican forms in the American Noctuid portion of Seitz' Macrolepidoptera of the World.
