LlTilOCOLLETIS STETTINENSIS. [PlATE V. FiG. 1, 



Synonymy. 

 First described by Nicelli in the 

 " Entomologiscbe Zeitung" for 1852, 

 p. 219, as Lithocolletis Stcttinensis ; 

 subsequently described by Stainton 

 in the " Insecta Britannica" under 

 the same name, and by Herrich- 

 SchafFer in the " Schmetterhnge von 

 Europa," as L, Slelt'mella. 



The synonymy is therefore thus: — 



Lithocolletis Stettincnsis — 



Nicelli, Eat. Ztg. 1852, p. 219. 



Stainton, Ins. Brit. Lep. Tin. p. 

 279. 

 Lithocolletis Stettinella — 



Herrich-SchafFer, Schmet. v. Eu- 

 ropa, V. p. 331. 



Remarks on the Synonymy. 

 Von Nicelli had critically noticed 

 the basal streak, which subsequently 

 escaped the notice of Stainton and 

 Herrich-Schaffer. Nicelli's words 

 are as follows :■ — " Above the fold, 

 towards the costa, is a small rather 

 quadrangular black brown spot, un- 

 der which the fold of the wing, in 

 resemblance of the frequently oc- 

 curring longitudinal line, is some- 

 times coloured white." 



tinent elle se trouve a Stettin, Frank- 

 fort-sur-le-Mein et a Konigsberg. 



Synonymic. 

 D'abord decrite par Nicelli dans 

 1'" Entomologiscbe Zeitung" de 1 852, 

 p. 29, sous le nom de Lithocolletis 

 Stettincnsis ; depuis par Stainton dans 

 1'" Insecta Britannica" sous ce meme 

 nom, que Herricli-Schaffer dans 

 ses " Schmetterlinge von Europa" 

 change en L. Stettinella. 



Voici done la synonymic de cette 

 espece : — 

 Lithocolletis Stettincnsis — 



Nicelli, Ent. Ztg. 1852, p. 219. 



Stainton, Ins. Brit. Lep. Tin. p. 

 279. 

 Lithocolletis Stettinella — 



Herrich-Schaffer, Schmet. v. Eu- 

 ropa, V. p. 331. 



Remarques sur la Synonymic. 



Von Nicelli avait deja remarque 

 la raie basilaire, qui ensuite a echappe 

 a Stainton et k Herrich-Schaffer. 

 Nicelli en parle ainsi : " au dessus du 

 pli vers la cote on voit une petite 

 tache d'un brun-noir, assez quadran- 

 gulaire, au dessous de laquelle le pli, 

 offrant I'aspect d'une raie basilaire, 

 se voit quelquefois colore en blanc."
