Gracilaria auricilla, Stt. 



(^Gracilaria auricilla, Stt., Trans. Ent. Soc. Lond., v, (n. ser.), 120.) 



I have not obtained this species. 



Appendix. 



The species described (very inadequately) by Nietner under the name of 

 Gracilaria eoffeifoUella does not seem to belong to the Gracilaria group at all, 

 but I have not succeeded in identifying it. The larva is said to be common 

 l^a a leaf-miner on coffee ; perhaps some collector could search specially for it.
