LITIIOCOLLKTIS. 279 



n'ddhh-oran(je (the extreme base palm-), with three yellowish-silvery 

 fasciffi; the tirst slightly eurved, the seeoiul nearly straight, the third 

 distinctly angulated, composed of two opjiosite spots, between the 

 apices of which are some dark scales, all llicse are dark-margined to- 

 wards the base of the wing, and their dark margins fade gradually into 

 the ground-colour ; beyond are two small silvery streaks on the costa 

 and one at the anal angle ; tlie dark apiccd streak is not collected into a 

 regular form. Posterior wings grey, with paler cilia. 



Hitherto very scarce in this country ; I once took a specimen near 

 York, among alders in ^fay. The birva (according to v. NiccUi) 

 mines tlic nnderside of the leaves of alders.

Head dark reddish-brown. Face and palpi white. Antcumc dark 

 brown, the tip whitish. Anterior wings narroto, dark reddish-Zi/'o/cM 

 (the extreme base paler), with two slightly ciu'ved fascia;, three costal 

 and two dorsal streaks silvery, yet rather of a yellowish tinge; all these 

 markings are dark-margined on the side towards the base ; the first 

 costal streak is rather anterior to the first dorsal streak, hence they 

 have not so much the appearance of an angulated fascia as in Tri'ili- 

 chiella ; the apical black streak is oval and more collected into a recjidar 

 form than in Frolichiella. Posterior wings grey, with paler cilia. 



Appears in May and August; occurring in the vicinity of oaks 

 and iHit-buslies.

Head bright saffron. Face and palpi white. Antenna} whitish, an- 

 nulatcd with fuscous nearly to the tip. Anterior wings shinintj saj/'ron, 

 with two slightly curved and one angulated silvery-whitish fascia?, in- 

 ternally narrowly margined with dark fuscous ; betbre the apex are 

 some black scales forming nearly an etonr/ate-oval streak, above them 

 are two short silvery-whitish streaks from the eosta, and beneath is a 

 smaller one from the anal angle. Posterior wings grey, witli grcyish- 

 ochreous cilia. 



Hitherto scarce; appears in May and August. The larva nu'nes 

 the underside of the leaves of the nut in autumn and July. The 

 larva3 have been found by ]\Ir. AVilkinson near Hackney, and the 

 perfect insect bred by him.
