 common among stubby oaks in Bagley Wood; Ancyiis comptana Froel., 

 Wytham Woods ; Lipoptycha saturnana Gn., plentiful on tansy at Bonr's Hill. 

 Olethreutes ce.fpifn7ia lib., recorded in my previous article, appears to be a 

 permanent inhabitant of Wytham Woods, where it is confined to the Coralline 

 Oolite at the summit. In my previous article I also recorded Alispa mujustella 

 Hb. from Wytham Woods, on the strength of an imago disturbed from some 

 bushes on June lUth, 1911. As the perfect insect is rarely found, I expected to 

 find the larvae common, but have hitherto been disappointed. In Sept. 

 1919 I found a single larva on Enanymvs berries in a hedge near Dry Sandford, 

 and have since found traces of others.
