GLYrmi'TEKYX IIAAVORTIIANA. [PlATE VII. FiG. 1. 



Geographical Distribution. 



This conspicuous insect has pro- 

 bably been much overlooked. The 

 specimens described by Stephens 

 were obtained from the neighbour- 

 hood of Birmingham; it has since 

 been met with freely near Man- 

 chestei', Avhence I have received the 

 larvai from Mr. Chappell and from 

 Mr. Campbell, and it has also been 

 noticed in other parts of the North 

 of England ; thus near York, near 

 Scarborough and in the Cumberland 

 lake district. In the South of Eng- 

 land Mr. Boyd met with it in the 

 New Forest, and Mr. Barrett found 

 it at Ilaslcmere. In Ireland it has 

 been noticed on the Wicklow moun- 

 tains. 



On the Continent it occurs in 

 Southern Lapland, and it has been 

 noticed in two parts in Gennany ; 

 Pastor Standfuss having found it 

 on high moors in the exti'eme South 

 of Silesia, and Professor Zellcr 

 having met with it on a much 

 lower level in a boggy place near 

 Meseritz. 



Synonymy. 

 First described liy Stephens, in 

 his " Illustrations of British Ento- 

 mology," under the name of Ileribcia 

 Haivorthana. Zetterstedt next de- 

 scribed it in his "InsectaLapponica" 

 under the name of CEcophora zo- 

 nella. Standfuss figured the species 

 in the " Broslau. Zeitschrift fur En- 

 tomologie" for 1849, under the name 

 of yEchmia zonella. Staintou, in 

 his volume of the "Insecta Britan- 

 uica," describes it as Gli/phipteryx 



La Distribution Geographique. 



Cet iusecte assez remarquable 

 parait avoir etc beaucoup neglige ;

 etaient recueillis pres de Birming-

 en d'autres parties du Nord de 

 I'Angleterre, pres de York, pres de 

 Scarborough et dans le pays des 

 Lacs de Cumberland. Dans le midi
