Tliis is the eommonest speeies of this geiius in Kj^ypt. I liave 

 capturée! it in ail the localities mentioned above for T. ehita; I hâve 

 often observée! and obtained it on Zygophyllum cocc/iieum, in the 

 désert but hâve not heen able to ascertain yet whether this plant is 

 in any way associated with the life history of this speeies. In Europe 

 it has been bred from Picn's hieracioidex and from several speeies of 

 Lactaca. T. amoeiui is ls:nown from other parts of North Africa, 

 Europe. Madeira and Canary Islands, Persia, Asia Minor 

 and Chinese Turkestan. 



More recently I hâve bred it from the eaj)itulum of Soicrio 

 roroiiop/folius-and Pirris spi-eiu/rriana from Kerdaeé(IV.— V.1924), 

 from Soîichus olcrarrus (Gizeh 20. V.. 1924) and from Centaiirca 

 calcitrapa (Barrage :1VI.1924).
