RECENT LITERATURE ON LEPIDOPTERA
(Under the supervision of Peter F. Bellinger)
B. SYSTEMATICS AND NOMENCLATURE
Stallings, Don B., & J. R. Turner, "A new species of Agathymus and a new subspecies of Megathymus (Lepidoptera, Rhopalocera, Megathymidae)." Ent. News, vol.71: pp.109-115, 2 pis. 1960. Describes as new A. freemani (near Bagdad, Ariz.; foodplant Agave " deserti"); M. yuccse browni (Salina, Utah; foodplant Yucca harrimanise). [P. B.]
Stempffer. H., "Description d'un lycene nouveau de la faune malgache" [in French], Naturaliste malgache, vol.2: pp. 131-133, 2 figs. 1950. Eicochrysops pauliani, a new lyceenid from Madagascar (Tsaratanana Mt.). [P. V.]
Stempffer, H., & N. Bennett, "Revision des genres appartenant au groupe des lolaus (Lep. Lycasnidse)" [in French], Bull. Inst, frang. Afrique noire, (A), vol.20: pp.1243-1347, vol.21: pp.227-235; 199 figs. 1958-59. Very important paper on the revision of the genera belonging to the lolaus group. After a history of the genera and an indication of the method of study, the authors give a key to the subgenera of lolaus; after this key every subgenus with the species and subspecies are successively studied. The presentation is not correct; the names of subgenera are not in parentheses and appear like names of genera. For example, p. 1255, in Hemiolaus coccuius, Hemiolaus is used in this paper for a subgenus, not a genus. The correct form is lolaus (Hemiolaus) coeculus according to the Regies. The following taxa are described (correct form indicated): I. (Stugeta) howkeri ethiopica (Ethiopia, Harrar), I. (S.) h. occidentalis (Sierra Leone, Batkanu); I. (Argiolaus) lalos kigezi (Uganda, Kigezi), 1. (A.) crawshayi nyanzse (Kenya, Mumias), 1. (A.) c. elgonse (Kenya, Mt. Elgon), /. (A.) c. niloticus (Uganda, Metu Hills), I. (A.) c. littoralis (Kenya, Mombasa); IOLAPHILUS n. subgen. (type menas H. H. Druce), /. (lolaphilus) maritimus (Kenya, Kilifi), 1. (lolaphilus) ndolde (N. Rhodesia, Ndola), I. (lolaphilus) vansomereni (Uganda, Metu Hills), I. (lolaphilus) dcquatorialis (Uganda, Katera), I. (lolaphilus) cottrelli (Uganda, Kamengo), I. (lolaphilus) kayonza (Uganda, Kigezi); PH1LIOLAUS n. subgen. (type parasilanus Rebel), 1. (P.) parasilanus maesseni (Br. Togo, Ho); I. (Epamera) mimosse rhodosense (S. Rhodesia, Umtali), I. (E.) aphnseoides mafugse (Uganda, Kigezi); 1. (JE.) moyambina (Sierra Leone, Moyamba), 1. (E.) longicauda (Nigeria, Ikom), I. (E.) dubiosa (Tanganyika, Amani), I. (E.) penningtoni (S.

Stys, Pavel, "On the lepidopterous nature of the previously dipterous genus Dahlica Enderlein 1912 (Lepidoptera, Psychidae—Diptera, Fungivoridse)" [in English; Czech summary]. Acta Soc. ent. cechoslovenize, vol.57: pp.76-83. 1960. Very important taxonomic study about Psychidae. The genus Dahlica, classified previously in Fungivoridae, is transferred to Psychidas. The subfamily Dahlicinas must be considered as synonymous to "Psycheoidinaa", sensu Kozhanchikov 1936. Dahlica in all probability is synonymous to Solenobia. [J. M.]
Thompson. W. R., "The interpretation of taxonomy." Proc. 10th intemat. Congr. Ent., vol.1: pp.61-73, 3 figs. 1958. Suggests that the complex interrelationships of species can better be explained by a fixed type system than by phylogeny. The author's argument is interesting, but he confuses gaps in zoological knowledge with gaps between types, and his mathematical explanation of a series of discrete types analogous to the periodic table of elements is no substitute for a causal explanation of organic diversity. [P. B.]
Tiedemann, Oswald, "Vitula serratilineella Ragonot (Lep. Pyralidag). Ein in Europa heimisch gewordener nordameriganischer Kleinschmetterling" [in
