124 LEPIDOPTERA. 



Depressaria arenella, I. B., p. 87. I fancy this larva 

 feeds on many of the Composite ; Mr. Harding found it at 

 Deal on burdock (Arctium Zappa), and I have seen leaves 

 of Serratula tinctoria apparently operated on by this insect. 



Depressaria purpurea, I. B., p. 89. Professor Frey 

 informs us that the larva of this species has been found by 

 Herr Bremi on Turilis Anthriscus. 



Depressaria Pimpinellce, I. B., p. 95. This has been 

 taken in Dorsetshire by Mr. Tompkins, and near Plymouth 

 by Mr. Reading, by beating thatch. 



Depressaria nervosa, I. B., p. 98. Mr. Tompkins has 

 obtained, from thatch in Dorsetshire, some very dark speci- 

 mens (almost black) of this insect ; if indeed they be strictly 

 referable to it. 



Gelechia terrella, I. B., p. 113. Mr. Scott has had this 

 out in a breeding-cage, in which he had a bunch of rushes, 

 so supposes the larva lived in the moss around the roots 

 (Int. 147). 



Gelechia Viscariella, Logan (E. A. 1855, p. 43; 2nd 

 edit., p. 65; 1st Annual Supp. to I. B., p. 2). Mr. Wil- 

 kinson has bred what is probably this species from larvas 

 found in the shoots of Lychnis dioica, near Scarborough. 



Gelechia tceniolella, I. B., p. 132. I have now bred this 

 from a greenish-yellow and red-banded larva feeding between 

 united leaves of Lotus corniculatus. I found it at Mickle- 

 ham, the middle of June. 



Gelechia Sircomella, I. B., p. 132. Mr. Wilkinson has 

 taken this, in company with G. tceniolella, flying over 

 clover ; Mr. Thompson has also met with it at Crewe. 



Gelechia nigricostella, I. B., p. 135. I have bred this 

 from a pale green larva, with small black spots, feeding on 

 Medicago sativa, which I received from Herr Schmid 

 (Int. 45).
