Specimens." " The idea of its being attached to ponds is cer- 

 tainly wrong, at least in the imago state, and I think it can 

 hardly be so in any state, seeing there is no water in the neigh- 

 bourhood of its habitat. The habit of this insect is rather 

 that of the PyraustcBy flitting about in short flights in sun- 

 shine and not easily approached in shade. The locahty for 

 it is a high sloping down, where the furze and fern are the prin- 

 cipal occupants of vegetable growth, but there are also the 

 usual plants that cover a Devonshire down, heath or moor — 

 there are clumps of heath and thyme. I can safely advise 

 those who may wish to take the species to look for it in a 

 dry place" (Int. ix. p. 18).
