Geographical Description. 

 This species seems to occur gene- 

 rally in England and in the south of 

 Scotland. It is also widely distri- 

 hutcd in Germany, and occurs in 

 Sweden, Lapland and Russia. 



Synonymy. 

 First described by Ilaworth in 

 1829, in his " Lepidoptera Biitan- 

 nica," under the name of Tinea 

 histrigella. Stephens translated this 

 description in his "Illustrations," re- 

 ferring the insect to the genus Lam- 

 pronia. Zetterstedt, in his "In- 

 secta Lapponica," described the spe- 

 cies under the name of Adela aba- 

 lic?/cIlo, and Ilcrrich-Schiitfcr, in 

 his " Schmetterlingc von Europa," 

 figured the insect as Tinea dilorcUa, 

 hut described it under the old name 

 of BistriffcUa. Since then it has 

 been described as Tinea histrigcUa 

 by Zeller, iu the sixth volume of 

 the "Linmea Entomologica," and 

 by Staiiiton, in hisvolume of the "In- 

 Bccta Britannica." Von lleinemann, 

 in his "Schmetterlingc Deutsch- 

 lands und der Schweiz," creates for 

 its reception a new genus, Phyllo- 

 poria, and describes it as 1*. hi- 

 strigella.
