This species, which causes great injury to vines, and so, in France especially, 
from time to time produces serious damage, is the chief subject of an exten- 
sive and excellent work of AuDouIN, Hist. des Insectes nuisibles & la Vigne, 
Paris, 1842, 40.

feet on the sixth ring of the body ; when touched they let themselves fall 
to the ground, and leap like fishes drawn out of water. 
Note.—Genus Hyblea Fasr. is joined with Herminia by La- 
TREILLE ; it contains exotic species, which whether they be all rightly 
placed here, appears to me very doubtful. MWyblea hturata Far.

Phalene Servia and Sergilia CRAM.

Phalena Fasr. (Phalena geometre L.) Wings broad, mostly 
patent when the insect is at rest, with anterior only partly covering 
posterior, sometimes erect. Antenne elongate, towards the extre-
