IN TUSCANY IN 1846. 57 



28. *t-3f. sicanella, Z. Was also taken in Tuscany. 



29. M. amentella, Z. (violacella, F. v. R. in lit.). [Described by 

 Zeller, see p. 72.] At the end of March among young oaks on 

 the hill of the castle Romeo. 



30. *Nematopogon Swammerdammellus, L. At the beginning of 

 April at Pratovecchio, singly; in the middle of April near 

 Leghorn, very abundant. 



31. N. Schwarziettus, Z. In May at Salviano, only twice. 



32. *N. Panzerellus, Hb. [Described briefly by Zeller, see p. 73.]' 

 In the middle of April at Florence, Leghorn, and Pisa, on ever- 

 green hedges ; scarce. 



33. *Adelafibulella, S. V. In May at Pisa on flowers on the dry 

 grassy places in the marshes ; not scarce. 



34. *A. cyanella, Mann, n. sp. [Described by Zeller, see p. 73.] 

 From the 18th of April to the 3rd of May at Leghorn ; by a long 

 hedge, in which there was much maple and Tatnarix, it swarmed 

 in the afternoon sunshine. 



35. *A. Frischella, Hb. In April at Pisa, in the marshes on the 

 flowers of Umbellifera ; scarce. 



36. *A. laqueatella, Z., n. sp. [Described by Zeller, see p. 74.] In 

 May at Salviano, hovering abundantly over a bramble hedge 

 before noon ; it is much darker than our Viennese Sulzerietia, 

 and the fascia of the anterior wings is of a more fiery yellow. 



37. A. associatella, Z. In May at Antignano, three specimens 

 taken on maple. 



38. A. DeGeerella, L. At the beginning of May, abundant every- 

 where around Leghorn. 



39. A. paludicolella, Mann, n. sp. [Described by Zeller, see p. 75.] 

 On the 19th and 20th of May at Pisa in the marshes, on the 

 flowers of a bushy Erica. 



40. *A. viridella, Scop. In the middle of April at Leghorn and 

 Pisa, abundant amongst leaf-trees. 



41. A. cuprella, S. V. At the beginning of April at Pratovecchio, 

 only once, on willows by the Arno. 



42. *Nemotois scablosellus, Scop. At the end of June at Pratolino ; 

 not scarce on scabious. 



43. *N. cerosellus, F. v. It. In the middle of June on the slopes of 

 the Apennines ; scarce. [Zeller reputes this not a distinct species, 

 but merely a form of scabiosellusJ] 



44. *JV. barbatellus, Z. In the middle of May at Ardenza and Pisa 

 in pasture-fields ; only found a few times. (I received two worn 

 males as N. minimellus^ : their anterior wings have a less brilliant 

 colouring than in barbatellus ; and the posterior wings towards the 

 base are of rather a paler grey. The less thickly haired palpi do 

 not make me hesitate in referring them to barbatellus ; some may 

 have got worn off in flight.)
