to be a distinct species, but I can find no diatin<Tnishing cbaracters. 

 On the other hand, a specimen from Scothind, kindly lent me by Dr. 

 Buchanan AVhite, is richly clouded with reddish along the median line, 

 and approaches hiarcunna in brightness of colour, although preserving 

 the peculiar form of the wings. 



Prof. Zeller, with his usual kindness, has sent me a fine series of 

 inornatmia, H.-S., thereby enabling me satisfactorily to identify this 

 species. He says that its larva feeds on Salix depressa. 



Anchylopera diminutana, Haw. 



Anchijlopern hiarcuana, Steph. — Known in Germany as fiiidigr- 

 rana, H.-S., under which name Prof. Zeller sent me specimens. Dr. 

 Wocke, however, gives hiarcuana as the prior name. Zeller says 

 " I have bred it from smooth and woolly-leaved Snlices. 



Anchylopera tmcana, Hiibu. — Uncella, Hein., is a later name by 

 which this species is known in Germany. M. Jourdheuille says 

 "larva on heath." 



Anchylopera onyrtiUana, Tr. 



Anchylopera Lundana, Fab. — Known in Germany as hadiana, 

 Dup., a later name, and corrected in Dr. Wocke's list. 



Anchylopera (Phoxopteryx) pahtdana, Barrett. Described in Ent. 

 Mo. Mag., vol. viii, p. 134, and also (with a figure) in the Entomolo- 

 gist's Annual for 1872. It is found also in Germany, where it has 

 been hitherto regarded as a variety of Lundana. 



Anchylopera derasana, Hiibn. — This species has been reared by Mr. 

 Machin from larva? feeding on Rhamnus frangula. He contributed an 

 interesting notice of its habits, some years ago, upon which I cannot 

 now lay my hand. 



Anchylopera ohtiisana, Haw. 



Anchylopera comptana, Erol. — In M. Jourdheuille's calendar the 

 larva of this species is said to feed between leaves of Potentilla 

 cinerea. 



In addition to the localities on the north and south downs given 

 by Wilkinson, I have to add Durdham Down, near Bristol, where it has 

 been found commonly by Mr. W. H. Grigg, and also, as I am informed, 

 by Messrs. Sircom and Vaughan. 



Anchylopera siculana, Hiibn. 



Anchylopera nnymcella, Linn.— M. Jourdheuille says " larva on 

 heath."
