Also rare ; taken at Birch wood, near Guiklibrd, and in the 

 Regent's Park in July and August. 



Sp. 3. Bentleyana. Alis anticis fusco-ferrugineis, strigis quinqve geminatis 

 punctisque numerosis argenteis, ciliis argenteis fusco punctaits. (Exp. Alar. 

 10— 12lin.) 



Ph. To. Bentleyana. Donovan, x. pi. 357. f. 1. — Ar. Bentleyana. S(eph. 

 Cafal.u. 190. No. 7120. 



Anterior wings rusty-brown, or reddish, with about five geminated irregular 

 decussating silvery streaks, and some scattered dots of the same colour, the 

 latter forming a fascia on the hinder margin ; cilia silvery-white, with brown 

 spots: posterior wings brownish, with pale cilia. 



Rather variable both in size and colour. 



This beautiful species appears to be peculiar to the north of 

 England and Scotland, where it seems to occur in plenty : I have a 

 splendid series from the mountains of Cumberland, and a few from 

 the vicinity of Edinburgh, where they were captured in June and 

 beginning of July : it occurs likewise near Manchester. 



B. Anterior wings of dark tints, with irregular or anastomosing silvery

To. Pinetana. Haworth. — Or. Pinetana. Steph. Catal. ii. 182. No. 7014. 



Anterior wings red-brown, with a broadish silvery-yellow fascia before the 

 middle, and a second oblique irregular one, extending from a little behind 

 the middle of the costa to the anal angle ; the apex of the costa also 

 yellowish, with four distinct red-brown dots; the disc varied with silvery- 

 yellow and red-brown: cilia pale, with a brown spot towards the anal 

 angle- 

 Found, but very rarely, in Norfolk, towards the end of July, by 



the late Mr. Haworth, whose specimens I possess. 



Sp. 5. Resinella. Alis anticis nigricantibus, sen rufo-fuscis, strigis pluribus 

 intricatis ad costam saepe bifidis subargenteis, posticis fuliginosis. (Exp. Alar. 

 7—9 lin.)

Anterior wings dusky or dull red-brown, with numerous intricate somewhat 

 silvery streaks, dividing the ground colour into small blotches, and many of 

 them bifid on the costa : cilia fuscous, with darker clouds : posterior wings 

 dusky, with a darker line near the base. 



Extremely variable in the tint of the anterior wings.
