LEPIDOPTERA. 141 



The following seven Lepidopterous insects (usually 

 found on heaths) have been taken in this parish : 

 Satyrus Semele, Saturnia pavonia-minor, Euthenionia 

 russula, Noctua neglecta, N. porphyrea, Fidonia 

 atomaria, and Aspilates strigillaria. 



Those found on the chalk are twenty in number : 

 Arge Galathea, Lycsena Corydon, Lycsena Alsus, 

 Geometra vernaria, Zerene procellata, Phibalapterex 

 tersata, Eupithecia isogrammata, Spilodes cinctalis, 

 Scopula lutealis, Halonota Brunnicherana, Dicro- 

 rampha simpliciana, D. plumbagana, Catoptria 

 Hohenwarthiana, C. Scopoliana, Euchromia pur- 

 purana, E. ericetana, Sericoris conchana, A/rgyrolepia~ 

 cnicana, Antispila Pfeifferella, Pterophorus trigono- 

 dactylus, and P. baliodactylus.. 



The following, which are found in gardens, have 

 probably been introduced : Sesia tipuliforrnis, 

 Acherontia Atropos, Mamestra brassicae, Cidaria 

 dotata, and Piouea forficalis. Geometra papilionaria, 

 which is found on birch, and Trachea piniperda, &c., 

 which are attached to fir trees, must also have been 

 introduced. 



The larvse of the following five moths feed on plants 

 growing in water : Hydrocampa stagnalis, H. 

 nymphaealis, H. stratiotalis, H. lemnalis, and Acen- 

 tropus nivosus. 



Two great features in the Lepidoptera of Glanville's 

 Wootton are the abundance of the genus Depressaria, 

 and the paucity of the genus Gelechia.
