OBSERVATIONS ON TINEINA.* 
BY H. T. STAINTON, F.L.S. 
Incurvaria viasculella.—On the 20th of June, 1864, Mr. Healy sent 
me a small case-bearer, which he had found at Snaresbrook on the 16th 
of that month. It was then mining the leaves of the wild rose, making 
a small whitish-green blotch ; and, afterwards, it appropriated the upper 
and lower cuticle of its blotch mine in the construction of its first case. 
Mr. Healy only collected three of these larvae, but found many 
rose leaves with indications of where the larvae had been. By the 1st 
of July, these larvae had enlarged their cases on one side only, in the 
true Incurvaria fashion. 
In the spring of 1865, these larvae produced Incurvaria masculella; 
thus this species also feeds on rose. I have an impression that it feeds 
on nearly all sorts of shrubs and young trees. 
* These were Intended to appear in the Entomologist's Annual for 1866, but were unavoidably 
excluded from want of space.
