Extract

This genus will have to be transferred to the Noctuidæ.

Larva cylindrical feet normal on joints 7–10, 13, about equally developed. Tubercles minute, setæ long, fine, iv. opposite the lower edge of the spiracle, a little nearer to v. than to iii., and rather far behind the spiracle; setæ single, several on the smooth leg plates. Segments obscurely 5-annulate. All green; spiracles small, brown; no marks; cervical shield and anal plate uncornified, invisible. (Head broken off.) Feeds on “hockelberry” (Vaccinium?).
