132 GHENT TO GLOGAU, ETC. 



at a glance from Anomalella or Angidifasciella, by the 

 straight, broad, pale golden fascia of the anterior wings (the 

 larva was sent me this last autumn by Herr Miihlig, and 

 though, like the larva of Anomalella, it forms a gallery, 

 this is distinguished in the case of Centifoliella by not being 

 at its origin entirely filled up with the black excrement, but 

 has a narrow empty border on each side; the larva itself 

 is pale amber, darker posteriorly, with the dorsal vessel

 us all to the Main Lust, where we vastly enjoyed the fresh 

 breezes from the river whilst we sat at our supper, our ears 

 being regaled with the music of a very respectable band. 



The following day we quitted Frankfort, going south by the 

 Badische Eisenbahn, and arrived in the evening at Freiburg ; 

 here we met Dr. Fischer, the Orthopterist. The next morn- 

 ing, leaving railways and their conveniences behind us, we
