42 LEPIDOPTERA. 



C. Lathyrifoliella, QQ, 170, bred from 1. in leaves of Lathyrus 

 sylvestris; the i. allied to Wailesella, hence quite distinct fi'om Lotella, 

 though the appearance of the mine and the conspicuously shining egg- 

 shell recall those of that species; Lathyrifoliella is the size and colour 

 of Wailesella, but the anal dark spot is much larger, and the two costal 

 spots are closer together, diminishing the white space betvveen them. 



C. OROBI, Stainton, 70? 158, n. sp.; differential characters pointed 

 out ; a white species bred from 1. feeding at Scarborough in the 

 leaves of Orobus tuberosus ; closely allied to C Lathyrifoliella and 

 C. Wailesella, but the angle between the two last radiating dark lines 

 of the cilia much smaller. 



C. SCITELLA, 68> 42 (v. H.); this is double-brooded in Germany, 

 though only single-brooded in England; 1. vi, vil and e.ix, X; i. V and 

 VII, VIII. [On two separate occasions I have had the 1. of this species 

 sent to me by Micro-Lepidopterists from the Great Orme's Head, where 

 they found it in the leaves of Cotoneaster vulgaris.'] 



C. LOTELLA, Stainton, 59? 156, described; closely allied to Scitella; 

 1. in leaves of Lotus major near Scarborough, e.vi, b.\T:i; 62) 1^^? 1- of 

 a Cemiostoma found b.Vlli near Teignmouth in leaves of Lathyrus 

 sylvestris. Are these Lotella ? [These proved to be the white species 

 noticed above under the name of Lathyrifoliella?^ 



C. LUSTEATELLA, 68, 42 (v. H.), 1. m.vi and m.ix, m.x, near Frank- 

 fort in the leaves of Hypericum montanum, more rarely in those of 

 H. perforatum., where frequently several individuals from a common 

 blotch take radiating mines towards the edges of the leaf; the cocoon is 

 spun within the mine, very rarely outside ; i. b.V and b.Vll. It is 

 curious that the mode of life of this insect is almost identical with that 

 of Nepticula Septembrella, which likewise mines Hypericum leaves. 



Opostega RELIQUELLA, Zeller, 68, 131, occurrence near Thetford 

 m.vi, and at a gas lamp at Hampstead, b.vill, along with O.salaciella. 

 Possibly Reliquella and Salaciella may only be extreme forms of one 

 species. L. of 0. auritella once found near Stettin, v, in the flower- 

 stalk of Caltha palustris. 



0. spatulella, Guenee, 60> 135, described; capture of 4 specimens 

 at Southend, in Essex, viii. 



BuccuLATRix AURIMACULELLA, 56, 59, 1. IV on Chrysanthemum 

 leucanthemuin, when young mining the leaves, afterwards feeding on 

 them externally; cocoon ribbed.
