The broad white mesial line, commencing at the vertex, and con- 

 tinued nearly to the anus, will serve at a glance to distinguish this 

 species. It appears to be rather uncommon, but has been found by 

 me in meadows near Leicester, in September.

Taken in abundance by me in meadows of the midland district, 

 and near Eslier. Plor has found it in Estlionia, and also in the South 

 of Prance. The larva is of a pale yellowish white, with two longi- 

 tudinal dark stripes, extending from the pronotum to the apex of the 

 abdomen. It is liable at first sight to be confounded with Z>. striatellus 

 and pellucidm, — but sec remarks on tlio^e s])ecies.
