 Eleven specimens. 



I took several specimens o£ this s|)ecies during my stay at Biskra, 

 but all singly and it was not noticeably attached to any particular 

 plant. It is very closely allied to Gelechia plutclUformis, Stgr., but 

 larger, paler, and much more uniform in its colour and markings.

14. D. confusus Zett. : this species is, as far as J know, limited to 



the sandy district in North Suffolk, where it is not un- 

 common. 



15. D. plumipes Scop. : a very common and very beautiful small 



species. I have taken it in numerous localities, ranging 

 from Bournemouth to Tongue. 



16. D. Wahlhergi Zett. : very similar to D. plumipes, but quite 



distinct ; I have found it only in Hampshire, Sussex, Essex 

 and Herefordshire. 



17. D. pennatus Mg. : common from Cornwall to Sutherland. The 



species of this group, though all quite distinct, require 

 considerable care to differentiate.
