OBSERVATIONS ON TINEINA. 165 



impossible that any one acquainted with both should for a 

 moment think of uniting them. Lutatella has the apex of 

 the anterior wings less produced, a distinct doubly-angulated 

 pale hinder fascia, two or three distinct spots on the disc and 

 fold, and the posterior wings much darker than in Gelechia 

 JRnfescens. 



The larva of G. Lutatella feeds on Calamar^rostis Epigejos 

 in the first half of June ; the perfect insect appears in July. 



Gelechia Rufescens, Haworth. I annex a representation 

 of the larva of this species, that those who meet with the 

 larvag of Gelechia Lutatella or G. Terrella may have the 

 opportunity of comparing them with this figure. 



Gelechia Inta7niimtella, Stainton (Ent. Ann. 1861, p. 

 86). A specimen of this insect was bi-ed by Herr Schmid, 

 on the 18th of May, 1856, from Achillea Millefuliujn. He 

 had it in his collection as the Pulveratella of Herrich- 

 Schaffer, and I cannot find anything in Herrich-Schafier's 

 description which prevents the union of Intaminatella and 

 Pulveratella as one species. It will be interesting to ascer- 

 tain if the insect taken near Darlington can be found in the 

 larva state on yarrow (^Achillea millefolium).
