GELECHIA FRATERNELLA. 



[Plate XI. Fig. 1. 



name ; under which it has since been 

 described by Stainton in his volume 

 of the " Insecta Britannica." Ha- 

 worth, in the old Entomological 

 Transactions, described immediately 

 after his Tinea trkolorella a Tinea 

 quadripuncttlla, of which he says, 

 " extremely like the last," and it is 

 by no means improbable that he may 

 have intended the present insect j 

 his description, however, is so brief 

 that it can scarcely be quoted as a 

 certain synonym. 



Hence the synonymy will be briefly 

 as follows : — 

 Gelechia fraternella —

le meme nom, nom sous lequel elle a 

 ensuite ete decrite par Stainton dans 

 son volume des "Insecta Britannica." 

 Haworth, dans les Transactions de 

 1'ancienne Societe Entomologique de 

 Londres, a decrit immediatement 

 apres la Tinea tricolordla une Tinea 

 quadripunctella, relativement a la- 

 quelle il fait la remarque, " tres-sem- 

 blable a la derniere," et il me parait 

 assez probable que l'auteur a eu en 

 vue notre Fraternella; maisla descrip- 

 tion est si courte, qu'on peut a 

 peine la citer comme synonyme cer- 

 tain. 



En voici done la synonymie assez 

 concise : —
