By Watter P. Weston. 
(Continued from p. 238.) 
Pyrodes Rheediella, Linn.—Distributed throughout, but not 
common. The image appears in May and June, and is to be met 
with at the flowers of the whitethorn. 
Catoptria albersana, Hub.—Not uncommon in the outskirts of 
woods. ‘The imago occurs in May and June, and flies towards 
dusk. The larva feeds on the honeysuckle in August. 
C. ulicetana, Haw.—Abundant everywhere among furze (Ulex 
européus). ‘The larva also feeds on Genista anglica and Lotus 
corniculatus. 
C. juliana, Bent.—Distributed throughout, but not a common 
species. he imago appears in July, and should be looked for on 
oak trees or palings near, especially during windy weather. The 
larva feeds in the acorn in autumn, and is full fed about the time 
the acorn falls; it then wanders out to pupate, but I do not think 
the actual change takes place until the spring. 
C. microgrammana, Guen.—Local and rare. ‘The imago 
appears in June and July among rest-harrow (Ononis), and has 
occurred at Deal, Folkestone; Box Hill and Croydon. 
C. hypericana, Hub.—Distributed throughout, and not un- 
common among St. John’s wort. The imago appears in June and 
July, and flies freely at dusk; it is also easily disturbed in the 
sunshine. The larva feeds in the heads of Hypericum perforatum 
and H. hirsutum. 
C. conterninana, H.-S.—Local and rare. The imago appears 
in June, and is to be met with among various kinds of lettuce. It 
has been taken and bred in some numbers from the neighbourhood 
of Dartford. 
C. Wimmerana, Wilk. non Treit.—Local. The imago appears 
in July, and is not uncommon amongst sea wormwood (Artemisia 
maritima) along the bank of the Thames below Gravesend. 
C. fulvana, Steph.— Local and scarce. The imago appears in 
July amongst the great knapweed (Centaurea scabiosa), and 
appears restricted to the chalk. It has occurred at Folkestone, 
Dover; and Headley Lane, Mickleham.
