676 TINEINA [heliodines 



costa, 8 absent. Hindwings h, lanceolate, cilia 3 ; transverse 

 vein partly absent, 4 absent, 6 and 7 approximated. 



There is only one known species. Imago with forewings 

 lanceolate. 



1. H. roesella, L. 10-11 mu^. Head and thorax metallic 

 dark bronzy-fuscons. Forewings deep orange, margins narrowly 

 blackish ; an oblique mark from base of costa, a narrow fascia 

 at J, three posterior costal spots, a triangular tornal spot, and 

 small subapical spot leaden-metallic, black-edged. Hindwings 

 dark fuscous. 



Said to have been formerly taken near London, record prob- 

 ably authentic ; C. Europe, WC. Asia to Turkestan ; 7, 8. 

 Larva pale green ; dorsal line darker ; head black ; 2 with two 

 black spots : amongst spun leaves of Atriplex and ChenojMdium; 

 6. 



12. Pancalia, Cicrt. 



Antennae -5, in S rather thick, very shortly ciliated, basal 

 joint rather long. Labial palpi very long, recurved, second 

 joint somewhat loosely scaled beneath, terminal shorter, acute. 

 Posterior tibiae rough -haired. Forewings with scale-tufts on 

 surface : lb furcate, 7 and 8 stalked, 7 to costa. Hindwings 

 almost 1, lanceolate, cilia 2 ; 6 absent. 



It is probable that the three supposed different forms of 

 this geiuis constitiite only one species. Imago with forewings 

 elongate-lanceolate. 



1. P. leuwenhoekella, L. {latreillella, Curt.) 9-13 nun. 

 Head and thorax dark bronzy-metallic. Antennae usually with 

 white subapical band. Forewings deep orange, margins more or 

 less blackish; a narrow interrupted fascia at \, a costal spot before 

 middle and another inwardly oblique at |, a dorsal median spot, 

 and an erect tornal mark pale golden-metallic, blackish-edged ; 

 a whitish spot in cilia on posterior costal spot. Hindwings

Britain to the Clyde, somewhat local ; Euroi)e, Asia Minor ; 

 5, 6. Larva dull purple - reddish, segmental incisions and 

 wrinkles pale brownish-ochreous ; head pale yellowish-brown, 

 darker-marked ; plate of 2 transparent : in leaf-stalks, after- 

 wards in silken galleries amongst rootstock of Viola hirta; C-8, 

 The imago flies in afternoon sunshine.
