YPONOMEUTID.I!. ANACAMPSIS. 209 



Rare: I have taken it at Darenth wood in July, and also at 

 Ripley in the same month, in 1827 • ^^ ^^s likewise occurred in the 

 New Forest. 



Sp. 16. a.spera. Alis anticis fusco-plumbeis punctis nigris aliquot elevatis, 

 posticisjuscis, immaculatis. (Exp. Alar. 5^ — 6 lin.) 



Re. aspera. Haworth. — An. aspera. Steph. Catal. \i. 196. No. 7192. 



Anterior wings lead-coloured, or smoky-brown,with a few scattered, somewhat 

 elevated, black dots before the middle, and an ijicomplete streak of the same 

 a little behind; the costa and the hinder margin with some very obscure 

 blackish dots : posterior wings fuscous, immaculate. 



Scarce : found occasionally in gardens and shrubby places, within 

 the metropolitan district, in June. I suspect its larva feeds upon 

 the apple. 



Sp. 17. domestica. AUs anticis griseis punctis prwgrandibus atris longitudina- 

 lihus, capite pallido. (Exp. Alar. 4 — 7 lin.) 



Re. domestica. Haworth. — An. domestica. Steph. Catal. ii. 196. No. 7198. 



Anterior wings dull griseous, or ashy-brown, with darker atoms, and nume- 

 rous large deep black dots disposed longitudinally in pairs, and occasionally 

 united so as to form transverse fasciae ; cilia pale fuscous, with a few darker 

 dots : posterior wings pale fuscous, cilia paler : head pale. 



Some examples are darker than others. 



Extremely abundant in lupuses and gardens within the metropolitan 

 district, during the month of June and in July: occasionally taken 

 earlier. 



Sp. 18. affinis. Alis anticis fuscis, atro parum nebulosis, fascia an gusta postica 



albicante. (Exp. Alar. 5 — 6 lin.) 

 Re. affinis. Haworth.— An. affinis. Steph. Catal. ii. 196. No. 7199. 

 Anterior wings brown, with about four deep black dots somewhat longitu- 

 dinally disposed, and with a transverse narrow whitish fascia a little behind 

 the middle : posterior wings pale fuscous, with paler cilia. 

 Wings sometimes very dark and almost immaculate, the spots being suffused 

 in the ground colour. 



Not uncommon in gardens and woody places within the metropo- 

 litan district in June. 



Sp. 19. diffinis. Alis anticis nigricajitibus cinereo parum pulvcrulentibus.
