Ti. luteella. Wien. Verz.—Cr. luteellus. Steph. Catal. ii. 220. No. 7487.— 

 Pediaria, Hiibner. 



Anterior wings in the male ochreous, faintly streaked with darker longitudinal 

 lines, with two transverse obscure repanded fuscous streaks, one about the 

 middle, the other midway between it and the hinder margin; cilia shining 

 brassy; in the female of a mousy-brown, with paler longitudinal streaks, 

 and two very faint transverse repanded streaks: posterior wings ashy, 

 fuscous in the female. 



Extremely variable in colour, the inner portion of the anterior wings being 

 more or less suffused with fuscous. 



Also common, in June, within the metropolitan district, frequenting 

 grassy places, &c. especially about Daren th and Birch woods. 



Sp. 28. tristis. Alls anticis obtusis rufo-fuscis, immaculatis, posticis fuscis.

Pa. tristis. Haworth.—Cv. tristis. Steph. Catal. ii. 219. A'^o. 74.76.— Ane- 

 RASTiA? Hubner. 



Anterior wings reddish-brown, totally immaculate : posterior fuscous. 

 Probably an extraordinary variety of the last described species : I possess 

 Haworth's original specimens. 



This specimen has been found in the vicinity of Dareuth wood, 

 and in Epping Forest in June. 



Sp. 29. inquinatellus. Alls anticis ohtusis Jlavo-cincreis ant murinis, strigis 

 duabus externi- rtctangulatis fuscis, albido adnatis. (Exp. Alar. 10 — 11 lin.) 



Ti. inquinatella. Wien. Verz.—Cr. inquinatella. Steph. Catal. ii. 220. No. 7488. 

 — Pediaria, Hubner. 



Anterior wings yellowish-ash or mouse-coloured, with two very much angu- 

 lated, or elbowed, transverse brown streaks, one in the middle, the other 

 towards the hinder margin, the latter whitish exteriorly: on the extreme 

 edge is a row of minute black dots ; cilia pale shining gold : posterior wings 

 of a lurid pale brown, with whitish silken cilia. 



Rather variable in colour; and in some examples the transverse fasciae are 

 more or less obliterated. 



Less abundant than Cr. luteellus, but like it frequent at Darenth 

 wood ; also found occasionally near Hertford in June. 



Sp. 30. aridellus. Alis anticis obtusis, Jiavescenti-cinereis lined baseos fasciilque 

 posticajlcxuosi fuscis ; posticis albidis. (Exp. Alar. 11 lin.)
