I have taken these at Kingmoor, Orton, and at Newby Cross. 
The larve live through the Winter, feeding on the roots of various 
plants ; and they change to pupz in the Spring. The moths are 
on the wing from May till the end of August. 
The PROCRIDA. 
The GREEN ForESTER (Procris statices). 
The Scarce ForEsTER (Procris globularia). 
Except that P. statices has somewhat thicker antenne than the 
other species, these two moths are very much alike. In both 
species the upper wings are of a beautiful shining green, and they 
are rather transparent. Both moths are on the wing in June and 
July ; and they occur often in great numbers near Wreay Station 
and at Orton. Both species may usually be found together. 
The ZYGAANIDA. 
The SIx-sPOTTED BuRNET (Zygena filipendula). 
This moth is found at Orton and at Wreay. The larve feed 
on the Crowfoot Trefoil.* When full grown, the larva crawls up 
the grass stalks, spins a sharp-pointed yellow cocoon, and changes 
to a stout black pupa. The moth is on the wing in June. 
The NUOLIDA., 
The four species of this family all occur in this locality. I 
have found them sitting on the trunks of trees, and on stone walls. 
Some I have taken with the net. They are all very much alike in 
appearance. 
The SHORT-cLOAKED Motu (lVola cucullatella). 
The Least Brack ArcueEs (lVola cristulalis). 
The SmaLL Brack ArcHEs (Wola strigula.) 
The Scarce Biack ArcHEs (lVola centonalis). 
I have taken these moths at Kingmoor, at Orton, at Newby 
Cross, and at Newbiggin Woods. They are on the wing from the 
end of May till the end of July.
