collection having aided the identifi- 

 cation of his Rufescens. Stainton, in 

 his volume of the " Insecta Britan- 

 nica," describes the insect under the 

 name of Gekchia Rufescens, which 

 name is retained by Frey in his 

 " Tineen und Pterophoren der 

 Schweiz," and by Fologne, who gives 

 an excellent figure of the larva, in 

 the 7th volume of the *' Annales 

 de la Societe Entoraologique Beige." 

 Herrich-SchafFer, in his " Schmet- 

 terlinge von Europa," describes and 

 figures it under the designation of 

 Anacampsis Isabella. Eversmann 

 briefly describes in his " Fauna 

 Lepidopterologica Volgo-Uralensis " 

 a Lit a Simplella, by which he may 

 perhaps have intended this insect. 



The synonymy will hence be as 

 follows : — 

 Recunaria Rufescens—
