M. NILLIERE ON TINEINA PKOM THE SOUTH OF FRANCE. 167 



2. Hyponomeuta egregiellus, Duponchel. Described as a Swammer- 

 damia, the insect being really rather intermediate between the 

 two genera. 



3. Psecadia funerella, Fab., var. canuisella, Milliere. I scarcely 

 fancy this can be considered specifically distinct. 



4. Depressaria nodiflorella , Milliere. Allied to rotundella, Douglas. 



5. D. ferulce, Zeller. (See ante, pp. 6 & 30.) 



6. D. feruliphila, Milliere. 



7. Gelechia antirrhinella, Milliere. A good species, closely allied to 

 G. tripunctella, S. V. (See ante, p. 109.) 



8. G. ulicinella, Staudinger. (See ante, p. 148.) In habit and 

 markings this resembles G. mulinella, Zeller. 



9. G. halymella, Milliere. Closely allied to G. obsoletella, F. v. E., 

 perhaps identical with G. salinella, Z. (See ante, pp. 10 & 37.) 



10. G. olbiaella, Milliere. Described as Alucita olbiaella. This is 

 the G. plutelliformis, Staudinger. (See ante, p. 147.) 



11. G. psoralella, Milliere. Both the larva and imago of this seem 

 to be referable to G. antliyllidella, Hb. 



12. Epidola barcinonella, Milliere. It is very interesting to have 

 in this a second species of the singular genus Epidola created by 

 Staudinger. (See ante, p. 151.) 



13. Butalis dorycniella, Milliere. This does not seem referable to 

 any other species of this puzzling genus. 



14. Acrolepia smilaxella, Milliere. This is the vesperella, Zeller. 

 (See ante, pp. 64 & 81.) 



15. Zetteria phillyrella, Milliere. Allied to Z. hepariella, Staintou, 

 but evidently distinct. 



16. Z. oleastrella, Milliere. Described as Tinea oleastrella. 



17. Bucculatrix lavaterella, Milliere. 



Copies of the original descriptions are appended ; but I must first 

 mention two other interesting Tineina of which M. Milliere dis- 

 covered the larvae last year (1868) on that rather peculiar plant 

 Osyris alba (one of the Santalacece), and the histories of which he is 

 now publishing ; these are Paradoxus osyridellus, Milliere (plumba- 

 ginella, Mann in litt.), and CJmidiodus Staintonellus, Milliere. 



PARADOXUS OSYRIDELLUS, Milliere. 



The genus Paradoxus may be thus briefly characterized : 

 Capilli hirsuti, epistomio laevigato. Ocelli nulli. Antennae alis 

 anterioribus breviores, mediocres. Haustellum medium. Palpi 

 labiales porrecti, squamis valde incrassati, articulus secundus longe 

 sqiuxmato-fasciculatus, articidum tertium omnino occidtans. Alse an- 

 teriores elongatae, subfalcataB, mediocriter ciliatae ; alas posteriores 

 lanceolatse foveola hyalina basali. 



I do not lay so much stress on the form of the anterior wings, as 

 that m ay vary according to the species (should we meet with other
