longitudinally striped up the back and sides with darker lines ;" and in 

 vol. ii. p. 451 J are some excellent observations uijon its economy.

 this species^ and I have also Haworth's mutilated one of No. Cannae.

 Mr. Curtis says, " I have a specimen agreeing pretty well with the above 

 figure, that was taken in Derbyshire ;" to which I can make no addition. 



-j-Sp. G. No.? Vectis. Curtis, v. x. pi. 451. — Alls anticis ochraceis puncto medio 

 fusco, striga incurva posticd serieque marginali punctoruni nigroruni. (Exp. 



Alar. 1 unc. 6 lin.) 

 Pale ochreous ; anterior wings with numerous ochreous and cream-coloured 



lines, the nervures pale ; on the disc is a fuscous dot, and a curved row of 



ininute dots, and on the hinder margin a second row of similar dots ; cilia 



pale; posterior wings whitish, with an obscure row of fuscous dots, rather 



behind the middle. 

 This insect has been taken, 1 believe, near Reading, by the Rev. C. S. Bird : 



it also inhabits " Black-gang Chine, Isle of Wight, and Whittlesea Mere, 



in July." — Curtis, I. c. 



Page 80. Leucania impuncta : it should have stood LEU.unipuncta, Haworth, 

 &c., whose specimen is now in my collection. 



Page 86. Cucullia Thapisphaga. This insect has been taken near Chelten- 

 ham, and also in the neighbourhood of London, by Mr. B. Standish. 



Page 87. Sp. 4. The insect here referred to Cu. Thapsiphaga, is distinct, and 

 belongs to another subgenus : it is allied to Cu. Asteris, which is the type of 

 Hubner's genus Euder^a. Wood has given a figure of it as Eu. Thapsi- 

 phaga, in his j]l. 1 6./. 389. I propose calling it Eu. Solidaginis in a Memoir 

 upon the Stirps Tribunophorte of Hubner, which I am preparing for the 

 Entomological Society.

 I believe unique specimen, has fallen into my possession ; and I have also 

 examples of var. ,8? and of Ph. biloba.
