« It will be observed that many species are hiserted in this volume that are 

 not in my Catalogue ; these have some of them been discovered since that was 

 ■written (in part upwards of lifteen years), or were previously in my col- 

 lection unnamed and unrecorded, as, although I endeavoured to render the 

 Catalogue as complete as I was able, I purposely avoided the introduction 

 of numerous species that I had been unable satisfactorily to examine, a 

 proceedhig that I feel still compelled to adopt, having many unnoticed species 

 as yet unexamined, and it is evidently better to omit them for the present, as 

 they may be eventually detected amongst Hiibnnr's figures, or in Treitschke's 

 work, in which he only describes 349 European species of Linnean Tinea! 

 although upwards of 450 have been known in England these twenty years. 



t Of 1807, by Mr. Haworth: as I have never seen the insect, I may pro- 

 bably have placed it in an erroneous location.
