Lo. subocellana. Sieph. Catal.n. 170. iVb. 6861. 



Anterior wings of a lead-coloured brown, somewhat reticulated with intcr- 

 . rupted deep black lines, the interstices as if faintly ocellated ; near the base 



is a faint black streak, and an oblique more distinct one in the middle: 



posterior wings brownish. 



I have seen two specimens only of this distinct species, whicli were 

 taken either in Devonshire or Cornwall.

Albin. pi. xxxvi.^. 58. f—l. 

 Anterior wings somewhat caudate, ferruginous, finely reticulated with fuscous, 



with a brown cloud towards the base of the inner margin, a small one on 



the costa, united by a fine oblique line to a larger brown blotch near the 



anal angle, and a slight brown cloud on the costa towards the apex ; 



hinder margin repanded and subfalcate : posterior wings brownish, with the 



apex more or less luteous. 

 Extremely variable: in some examples the anterior wings are entirely suffused 



with a deep smoky brown tinge, with the usual markings slightly expressed, 



the posterior wings fuscous, with a slight luteous or coppery tint on the 



apex ; intermediate varieties occur. 

 Caterpillar feeds on the bramble, and also on the rose, to which it is sometimes 



very destructive in gardens, abounding at times in my own garden: the 



imago appears about the middle of June. 



This conspicuous and beautiful species is not very abundant ; it 

 occurs, however, in some places within the metropolitan district in 

 plenty, especially in my own garden, where I have captured some ex- 

 traordinary varieties.

Anterior wings of the male rusty-testaceous, with a small elongate ustulated 

 brown spot on the inner margin at the base, a very oblique one in the middle 

 of the wings, tending in a reverse position to the preceding ; and on the 

 hinder margin near the apex is an abbreviated one of similar hue, which
