THE ENTOMOLOGIST. 31 



margins of the central fascia, which is little yellower than 

 the ochreous ground colour, are silvery ; in Scribaiella, which 

 has the central fascia dark yellow, inclining to orange, not 

 the rich reddish orange colour we see in the black species, 

 the margins are pale golden, but the exterior margin is rup- 

 tured a little above the middle of the wing, and the orange- 

 yellow colour protrudes through it. 

 " And we have 



" Four species with black anterior wings, namely — Ex- 

 imia, with the V)ase of the wing black, and the apical streak 

 interrupted, of which the pretty red marbled larva mines the 

 leaves of the hop ; Schmidiella, with the base of the wing 

 black, and the apical streak uninterrupted, of which the pretty 

 red marbled larva mines the leaves of Vicia Sepium ; Ori- 

 chalcea, with the base of the wing brassy, and the apical 

 streak interrupted, of which the larva is suspected to mine in 

 the leaves of Festuca aiundinacea ; and Druryella, with the 

 base of the wing brassy, and the apical streak entire, of which 

 the larva mines the leaves of Hierochloe australis. In all 

 these species the margins of the central fascia, which are 

 golden in the male, have a rosy or violet tinge in the female ; 

 and though all have the tips of the antennte white, there is 

 this difference, that Druryella and Orichalcea have two white 

 rings before the white tips ; and in Schmidiella and Eximia 

 there is only one white ring.
