Eph. interpunctella Hb. 



Sydney, Parramatta, common. The larva feeds in corn -bins, 

 apparently especially on maize, in company with Sitotroga cereal- 

 ella, doing considerable damage. 



G-ALLERIA F. 

 Gall, mellonella L. 



Specimens of this insect are sent from Queensland, where it is 

 considered destructive ; the larva feeds in bee-hives on the wax. 



ACHROEA Hb. 

 AcTir. grisella F. 



Sydney, Parramatta, Melbourne ; common in February and 

 March. The larva feeds in bee-hives on the wax, causing very 

 great destruction if not checked ; but I have also seen it very 

 abundant in a fruit-shop in Sydney, which may indicate some 

 versatility of habit.
