NEW BRITISH SPECIES SINCE 1835. 61 



described; the most striking character is the yellow cilia of 

 the anterior wings. Mr. Douglas has a specimen taken at 

 Sanderstead. 



Lozopera dilucidana, Stephens; first enumerated as 

 a distinct species in Stephens's Museum Catalogue, at page 

 84. It is the Francillana of most collections, the true Fran- 

 cillana, in which the first fascia is entire, and not interrupted 

 towards the costa, being comparatively rare. Mr. Douglas 

 has bred dilucidana from the stems of the wild parsnip (Pas- 

 tinaca sativa). 



Of the following Tortricina, enumerated in Stephens's 

 Museum Catalogue as British species, I am unable to give 

 any satisfactory information : therefore I think it more advi- 

 sable to omit them for the present; should they hereafter 

 prove to be distinct, I shall have much pleasure in intro- 

 ducing them in subsequent years. 



Antithesia sororculana, Spilonota alnetana, Grapho- 

 litha excruciana, Pamplusia alticolana, Ephippiphora La- 

 thyrana, E. Heegerana, E. Jissana, Catuptria asseclana, 

 C. cemulana, Cnephasia perterana, C. perplexana, C. in- 

 canaua, Argyrotcenia cognatana, A.fuscociliana, Sericoris 

 Dormoyana. 



In the foregoing enumeration of novelties since 1835, I 

 have not mentioned the few new Crambina which are 

 already noticed in my " Systematic Catalogue ;" and with 

 reference to the new Tineina, which include nearly half our 

 present species, I am compelled by actual want of space to 

 refer the reader to the Insecta Britannica — Lepidoptera 

 Tineina, where they will find all the information that I 

 possessed at the close of 1853.
