460 DESCRIPTIONS OF AUSTRALIAN MICRO-LEPIDOPTERA, 



Taken not uncommonly at rest on fences in Sydney, from 

 September to February ; it also occurs at Waratah on the Hunter 

 River, and at Brisbane. 



Walker's descriptions are in this case tolerably accurate ; the 

 type of Carpocapsa trajectana is lost, but the description is certainly 

 referable to this species.
