NOTES ON BEITISH TORTRICES. 



BT C. G. BAEEETT. 

 (Continued from ^age 100^. . 



Peronea cristana, Pab. 



Peronea permutana, Dup. — Altered by Woeke to ^;er«??f^«^ff««. 

 Mr. Doubledaj tells me tliat the name in Duponchere Catalogue is 

 permutana, 



Peronea variegana, Scbiff. 



Paramesia aspersana, Hiibn. — Feeds on Spircea ulmaria in tbe 

 Norfolk fens, emerging a week or two earlier than Peronea Shep- 

 Jierdana. 



Paramesia ferrngana, Tr.— This species is partially double brooded, 

 the first brood (wbicb is scarce) appearing in June ; it is paler in 

 colour, sometimes differing very considerably from tbe autumn speci- 

 mens. Some specimens bave a small black dot on tbe fold, and tbis 

 variety bas been described as a distinct species (under tbe name of 

 selasana) by Herricb-Scbaffer, Heinemann, and otbers. Professor 

 Zeller tells me tbat be does not tbink it truly distinct, and my speci- 

 mens, wbicb be named selasana, are certainly (as I tbink) summer 

 specimens oiferrugana. 



Pa7'a7nesia caJedoniana, Stepb. — Dr. "Wocke in bis list admits 

 selasana to tbe dignity of a species, yet sinks tbis really distinct 

 insect into a variety oiferrugana. For tbis tbere is not tbe sligbtest 

 ground. 



Teras caudana, Fab. — M. Jourdbeuille states tbat tbe larva feeds 

 between united leaves of Populus tremula. 



Poecilochroma profundana, Fab. — M. Jourdbeuille says : " larva 

 " between oak leaves, sometimes in oak apples." 



Poecilocliroma corticana, Hiibn. — Tbis larva also feeds frequently 

 in oak apples (galls of Teras terminalis'), as well as between oak 

 leaves. 



Poscilochroma Bouchardana, Dbld. — Tbis is ruMginosana, H.-S., 

 as corrected by Mr. Doubleday in bis supplement. 



Poscilochroma tenerana, Dup. — Corrected by Doubleday and 

 Wocke to Ratzehurgliiana, Etz. Found among spruce fir, 



Poecilochroma Hawkerana, Stn. — Corrected by Wocke to conse- 

 quana, H.-S., an earlier name. Professor Zeller tells me tbat it is new 

 to bim, but tbat Wocke is probably right.
