and a collector rarely identifies his captures without much 

 trouble. 



Dicrorampha acuminatana, Zell. ; first enumerated 

 as British in Doubleday's Catalogue, at page 26, as Dicro- 

 rampha caliginosana. It has occurred at Charlton, near 

 Bristol, and at Mickleham, in August. From the latter 

 locality Mr. Douglas exhibited specimens at the September 

 meeting of the Entomological Society in 1851. 



Dicrorampha saturnana, Guenee; first distinguished 

 as a British species by Mr. Doubleday, and enumerated in 

 his Catalogue at page 26. 



Dicrorampha plumbagana, Treit. ; first distinguished 

 as a British species by Mr. Doubleday, and enumerated in 

 his Catalogue at page 26. 



Dicrorampha Ulicana, Guenee ; first distinguished 

 as a British species by Mr. Doubleday, and enumerated in 

 his Catalogue at page 26. 



Dicrorampha consortana, Stephens ; first recorded 

 in the Proceedings of the Entomological Society for Sep- 

 tember, 1851, when " Mr. Douglas exhibited an apparently 

 new species of Stiymonota, taken at Headley Lane, August 

 10th." In Stephens's Museum Catalogue it is enumerated 

 and described as D. consort ana, at pages 60 and 100. It 

 may be said to resemble a small dark Ephippiphora Leplas- 

 triana ; it is yet in few collections. 



Catoptria Wimmerana, Treit.; thus noticed by Mr. 

 Douglas in the Entomologist, at page 384— " Carpocapsa 



, a new species allied to C. pupillana, but abundantly 



distinct. Taken on the sea wormwood near St. Osyth, but 

 very local." In Humphrey's and Westwood's British Moths, 

 vol. ii. p. 138, it is described as C. maritima. It has been 

 frequently taken since by collectors on the coast, and is now 

 in most collections. The Grapholita lacteana } enumerated
