PREFACE.

Since the publication of the first two Volumes of the ‘ Catalogue
of Moths,’ Vol. I. in 1898 and Vol. II. in 1900, a very large
number of species in the families of which they treat have been
described, and it became necessary to prepare a Supplement in
order to bring the subject matter of those volumes up to date.

That Supplement is to be found in the present Volume.

The name Amatide is substituted for Syntomide, as the
generic name Amata, Fabr., has been proved to have priority

over Syntomis, Ochs.

The Amatide in Vol. I. contained 169 genera and 1184 species,

to which are now added 16 genera and 945 species.

The Noline in Vol. IL. had 13 genera and 162 species, to which

are added 1 genus and 116 species.

The Lithosiane, also in Vol. II., had 244 genera and 1055

species, to which are added 73 genera and 880 species.

It is proposed to publish next a Supplementary Volume to
Vol. III., containing the additions to the Arctiane and Aga-
vistide ; then to continue the Noctuide, in which the preparation
of the classification of the very large subfamily octuine is

making steady progress.

vil PREFACE.

Sir George Hampson has to acknowledge the assistance which he
has received, mostly from those whose help has been referred to
in earlier volumes of the Catalogue, by the loan of types and

specimens, and in other ways.

The coloured drawings which have been made for him from
types of species which are not in the Collection of the British
Museum, and of which he has been unable to examine specimens,

have been reproduced, and are severally acknowledged in the text.

The Plates in connection with this volume, which will be
ready for publication about March 1915, are numbers I.—XLI.

of the Supplement; No. XLII. will appear in Vol. II. of the
Supplement.
