content: December 11, 2007, by Reed A. Watkins: Barnes & Lindsey (1921: Contrib. Nat. Hist. Lep. N. Am. 4(4), p. 383) stated that the "type" of cretidactylus Fitch was a female in the Fernald collection. Also, H. T. Fernald (1920, "List of Types in the C. H. Fernald Collection ...", unpublished correspondence: 5) lists one such "type". I believe that this is the "Type" in question.
