shoulders ferruginous. Abdomen dark grey. Legs blackish, posterior pair and apex 

 of joints whitish. Fore-wings elongate, posteriorly dilated, costa gently arclied.apex 

 obtuse, hind-margin slightly rounded, rather oblique ; rein 7 to costa; yellowisli- 

 ferruginous ; costa narrowly suffused with deep ferruginous, mixed with dark grey ; 

 a pale yellow suffusion occupying basal two-fifths except towards margin ; a large, 

 deep, ferruginous patch, sprinkled with dark grey, towards anal angle, extended 

 upwards as a suffused band along hind-margin ; cilia whitish, with a dark grey line, 

 at anal angle ferruginous-tinged. Ilind-wings grey, near base thinly scaled, apex 

 and hind-margin dark grey ; cilia grey-whitish, with a dark grey line. 



Philippeville ; one specimen. This peculiar species cannot be 

 compared with any other known to me, and is structurally peculiar in 

 the costal termination of vein 7 of the fore-wings, but is otherwise a 

 true Eudemis. 



Baclra lanceolana, Hb. — one specimen, taken at Biskra. 



Grapholitha minutana, Hb. — Philippeville ; several specimens beaten from 

 poplar. These form a variable and very curious series ; they are smaller than 

 English specimens, some being much smaller, and the ferruginous suffusion tends to 

 disappear, so that they are mostly much whiter, and one is as white as Q-. neglectana. 



Stigmonota Leplastriana, Curt. — -Bougie ; two specimens. 



Dichrorampha sp. — a worn and unidentifiable specimen of the plumbagana 

 group, taken at Philippeville. 



Batodes angustiorana, Hw. — Philippeville ; one specimen. 



TORTRIX XTLOTOMA, n. sp. 



(J. 16 mm. Head and thorax rather light ochreous, face and palpi dark 

 fuscous. Antennae pale ochreous spotted with fuscous, ciliations 1. Abdomen grey, 

 anal tuft whitish-ochreous. Legs dark grey, posterior tibiae and apex of joints 

 ochreous-whitish. Fore-wings elongate, moderate, suboblong, costa moderately 

 strongly arched on anterior half, straight posteriorly, apex obtuse, hind-margin 

 straight, somewhat oblique, rounded beneath ; light brownish-ochreous, towards 

 hind-margin with some small, very obscure grey spots ; costa narrowly and ob- 

 scurely ferruginous ; basal patch obsolete ; central fascia starting from before middle 

 of costa, on costal third rather narrow, dark fuscous edged with ferruginous, then 

 becoming suffused with ferruginous, and obsolete on lower half, except a small 

 dark fuscous spot on inner margin before anal angle ; a flattened triangular dark 

 fuscous spot extending on costa from two-thirds to apex, edged with ferruginous ; 

 cilia pale ochreous, above apex dark fuscous. Hind-wings grey, darker towards 

 apex ; cilia grey-whitish, with a grey line. 



Bougie ; two specimens. I use the term Tortrix in the proper and 

 limited sense, to signify the group of which viridana is the type, called 

 Heterognomon, Ld., in Staudinger's Catalogue. The markings of this 

 species are quite as in Cacoecia costana, but it is a browner and less 

 broad-winged insect, and of course differs structurally by the absence 



of the costal fold.
