scales at the base of the anterior wings, or on the inner margin ; others have 

 the black characters more or less confluent, and amongst my series I have a 

 specimen with only a single short black longitudinal streak about the middle 

 of the disc, towards the costa. 



Not common ; found in various parts of the country from July to 

 October ; I have taken it at Darenth wood in the former month, and 

 have received specimens from the New Forest, where they appear to 

 be common, during the other periods.

Anterior wings rough, of a bright ashy-green, thickly irrorated with extremely 

 minute darker dots, the costa obscurely punctulated with the same : posterior 

 wings fuscous. 



The colour of the anterior wings varies considerably ; sometimes being of a 

 pale lightish green, at others of a very dark hue : some examples are very 

 faintly marked, and others have more or less distinct short black streaks. 



Also found in various parts of the country : I have taken it at 

 Bere wood, near Dover, in August, and obtained numerous specimens 

 from the New Forest : it also occurs in Devonshire, and at Darenth, 

 Birch, and Coombe woods. " Raehills, rare." — Rev. W. Little.

Curtis, ix. pi. 440. 

 Anterior wings roughish, of a light green, thickly and prettily irrorated 



throughout with deep raised black spots, the extreme hinder margin with 



a distinct row of the same: posterior wings brownish. 



This appears to be the rarest species of the genus ; it has 

 occurred in August at Birch wood, and also in the New Forest, in 

 Devonshire and in Dorsetshire.

Anterior wings rough, of a light ashy-green, sprinkled throughout with 

 -minute black dots; the costa anteriorly with waved transverse black lines, 

 and posteriorly with numerous black dots ; the disc also with strong dark
