GEOMETRINA. 



Zonosoma orhicalaria, ilnhn.— k sxastW $ exauiple, in which the black dots 

 forming the usual transverse lines are replaced by strong longitudinal black lines, 

 giving the insect a curious radiated appearance. " Head, Scarboro " (C.W.D.).* 



Pseudoterpna ci/tisaria, W. V. — A rather remarkable cJ variety in which the 

 usual green tint is replaced by clear darkish grey, the central band being well 

 marked ; it is on an old pin, but is fresh-looking and in excellent condition. A ? , 

 also in good order, is smooth dark smoke-grey on both surfaces. 



* This would not be a Scarborough specimen, as the species is not known to occur in 

 Yorkshire.— G. T. P.
