10 MY SECOND VISIT TO THE ENGADINE. 



The next day I returned to the same locality between the 

 two streams, where I again obtained a Chaullodus scurellus, 

 4 Sophronia parenthesella, an Acrolepia, which I at first 

 took for Arnicella, but which Professor Frey says is the 

 Adjectella, Heyden ; I also caught a solitary specimen of a 

 small yellow-headed Tinea, which I believe to be Jgfii- 

 comella. 



The next day we had a splendid morning and we drove to 

 the Bernina Pass, having magnificent views of the mountain 

 tops as we went along; we passed the Lago Bianco and the 

 Lago Nero, but by the time we reached the actual pass 

 clouds had begun to form in the valley to the south, so that 

 our view there was not what we had anticipated ; and as we 

 returned we noticed that many a glacier and many a moun- 

 tain top, which had been quite clear as we passed in the 

 morning, were then concealed by the rapidly increasing 

 clouds. 



That afternoon we flitted to the Krone, having at last 

 succeeded in getting rooms there. Heir Gredig has pro- 

 raised to enlarge his hotel by next summer, so as to be able 

 to accommodate more visitors ; the large new hotel on the 

 Samaden road may also perhaps be open in 1871. 



In the evening I went out, but the only noticeable capture 

 was a fine sleeping Hadena, on a wooden fence, just as if it 

 were in England — the specific name I have not yet ascer- 

 tained. 



The following day it rained in the morning for some hours, 

 but in the afternoon it cleared up, and we walked by the old 

 Samaden road till we came to a nice rocky place, where 

 there were bushes of Lonicera ccerulea and Cotoneaster 

 vulgaris; the first-named plant furnished us with several 

 Cerostoma falcella, and the Cotoneaster showed a plentiful 

 supply of screwed leaves which had been tenanted by the
