LEPIDOPTERA OF THE ISLE OF PURBECK. 51 



authority of Rev. C. R. Digby, but E.R.B. 

 has carefully examined all the specimens 

 (now in coll. G. W. Bird) taken by him in 

 Purbeck, and supposed to be affinella, Hw., 

 and they are all undoubtedly similis, Dgl., 

 as are all the specimens that E.R.B. has 

 taken or bred himself in Purbeck. On his 

 mentioning these facts (1894) to Rev. 

 C. R. Digby, he said that he had no doubt 

 that the correction was right. 



p. 209. For " Gelechia Ligulella, Z.," read 4< Gelechia 

 Vorticella, Z." See under GELECHIA VORTI- 

 CELLA, Z., in the present 2nd supplementary 

 list. 



p. 213. For " Nepticula Gratiosella, Stn.," read " Nepticula 

 Ignobilella, Stn." 



The nomenclature adopted in the first list and the first 

 supplement is that of Merrin's Lepidopterist's Calendar 

 (1875), and the present being only a second supplement 

 and not a new list, I have thought it best, to prevent 

 confusion, to use the same nomenclature, placing within 

 brackets any synonyms which have been shewn to have prior 

 claims, and which are more generally used at the present 

 time. Where Mr. Eustace R. Bankes' name occurs as the 

 authority for a capture or otherwise in the notes, it is 

 designated for convenience by the initials (E.R.B.) ; other 

 captors' names are given in full. A list of abbreviations 

 used for the names of the authors of the descriptions of 

 the various species is appended. 



The Author's names with the abbreviations used are as 

 follows : Auct. Angl. Auctorum Anglicorum ; B. Boisduval ; 

 Ba. Barrett ; Ben. Bentley ; Bk. Borkhausen ; Bnks. 

 Bankes ; Bou. Bouche ; Br. Bruand ; C. Curtis ; Clms, 

 Clemens ; D. Duponchel ; Db. Doubleday ; Dg. Douglas ; 

 Drt. Durrant ; Dyar, Dyar ; E. Esper ; F. Fabricius ; Fisch. 

 Dr. F. Fischer ; F.R. Fischer E. von Roslerstamm ; Frey.
