58 LEPIDOPTERA. 



thotcenia cespitana : " 18th June, Heath, side of a hill, Amble- 

 side; and 14th July, amongst fir-trees, Black-wood, Loch 

 Rannocb." I have several times taken the insect among 

 fir-trees, in Torwood, Stirlingshire, and it has been taken by- 

 others collecting in Scotland. 



Mixodia tenerana, Dup. ; first recorded as British, 

 and also described and figured, in Humphrey's and West- 

 wood's British Moths, vol. ii. page 172, pi. xcix. fig. 10, as 

 Orthotcenia pinetana. It does not seem at all uncommon 

 among fir trees throughout the country. It was first "taken 

 in Dorsetshire, by Mr. Dale." 



Lobesia Servillana, Dup. ; first enumerated as British 

 in Doubleday's Catalogue, at page 26; it is a scarce species, 

 but occurs at Epping on Sallows, and also in the fens. 



Lobesia simplana, F. v. R. ; first enumerated as British 

 in Doubleday's Catalogue, at page 26 ; it has been taken at 

 Darenth Wood, and in the fens, but is rare. 



Chrosis Audouinana, Dup. ; described and figured as 

 Argyrotoza apicalis in Humphrey's and Westwood's British 

 Moths, vol. ii. page 169, pi. xcviii. fig. 8, having been 

 "taken by Mr. Bentley, in July, at Tonbridge." In the 

 Zoologist for 1846, page 1268, it is described by Douglas 

 and figured, under the name of Argyrotoza Audouinana. 

 Mr. Douglas " took two specimens at Black Park, on the 

 28th of June, 1845;" and it has since been taken in the same 

 locality, and near Epping, but still continues rare, and is in 

 few collections. 



Chrosis rutilana, Hiibner ; first recorded as British, 

 described and figured by Newman, in the Zoologist for 1845, 

 at page 807— Mr. Bedell having "on the 7th of July, 1844, 

 while beating the juniper trees, on Sanderstead Downs, for 

 Macrockila marginella, obtained five specimens of" this 

 insect. It is very common among the junipers at Sanderstead 

 and Stoat's Nest; the larva feeds on the juniper berries.
