made their appearance. I may mention, that I obtained 

 several case-bearding larvas from the same stems, but they all 

 died/' 



ArgyrestMa glancinella, I. B., p. 185. " The larvae of 

 this species," writes Mr. Edleston in the Intelligencer, 

 "feed under the bark of oak and Spanish chesnut; they are 

 excessively local, and only found at the base of trees of 

 enormous size." 



Cedestis farinatella, I. B., p. 190. Mr. T. Wilkinson 

 met with the larvae of this in March mining the leaves of 

 Pinus sylvestris. The larva is shining pale brown, with 

 dull green dorsal vessel. It mines from the tip of the 

 leaf downwards, leaving the mined portion full of excre- 

 ment. 



Ocnerostoma piniariella, I. B., p. 191. The larva of this 

 is brown, and it mines the leaves of Pinus sylvestris in 

 March, working from the tip downwards ; but thongh it 

 leaves the end of the leaf full of excrement, some distance 

 from the tip it makes a hole, and ejects its excrement through 

 it, so that the lower half of the mine is tolerably empty and 

 appeal's whitish. 



Zelleria hepariella, I. B., p. 192. Mr. Wilkinson says, 

 " I first met with this by beating yew trees in September." 

 Mr. Gregson met with it in a yew wood near Conway 

 {Gracilaria Ilaighii, Zoologist, 5295); and I have myself 

 seen it beaten from a, yew tree at Mickleham. 



Gracilaria seviifascia, I. B., p. 196. Mr. Ashworth 

 has bred this species from larvae making cones on the leaves 

 of maple. 



Gracilaria omissella, I. B., p. 198. I found the larvae 

 of this species abundant at Reigate in September ; Mr. 

 Winter also met with it at Brighton.
