Rusina umbratica, Goeze (tenebrosa, Hb.)

 cote (J. H. Bloom); Wolford (W.C.E.

Tosniocampa gothica, L. Very common, 

 especially in the pupal stage 



miniosa, F. Marston Green (one in 



1895, H.Taylor); Rugby = Prince- 

 thorpe (Rugby list, 1897 only). Not 

 uncommon in Worcestershire, so will 

 probably prove commoner in War- 

 wickshire when looked for 



pulverulenta, Esp. Very common 



- populeti, Tr. Not common. Marston 



Green (G. W. Wynn); Rugby = 

 Overslade, etc. (Rugby lists) ; is also 

 recorded by Newman as occurring 

 in the county 



- stabilis, View. "1 These two species 



incerta,Hufn. (in- Vwith gothica and pul- 



stabilis, Esp.). J verulenta occur in the 

 greatest abundance on sallows in the 

 spring and in the pupal stage at the 

 feet of trees in autumn wherever I 

 have collected 



opima, Hb. The only record of this 



species is one by Mr. E. A. Laxon 

 at Keni/worth (Entom. 1899, p. 166). 

 I do not know it otherwise as occur- 

 ring in the county and should like 

 confirmation 



gracilis, F. Not common but well 



distributed. Marston Green, Hamp- 

 ton-in-Arden (G. W. Wynn) ; Knowle 

 (R. C. Bradley, etc., etc.); Olton 

 (Blatch Cat.); Yardley (Blatch Hand.);

Tceniocampa munda, Esp. Like gracilis not 

 common but well distributed. Marston

 Knowle (R. C. Bradley, etc); Rugby = 

 Overslade, etc. (Rugby lists) ; Kenil- 

 worth (E. A. Laxon, Entom. 1899) ; 

 Wolford (W. C. E. Wheeler) 



Panolis griseovariegata, Goeze (piniperda, 

 Panz.) Very local ; occurs regu- 

 larly in Sutton Park chiefly in one 

 wood but is never common there ; 

 and is also recorded from Marston 

 Green (G. W. Wynn); Rugby (Rugby 

 list, 1888 only) 



Calymnia affinis, L. Well distributed but

 Cosmia paleacea, Esp. (fulvago, Hb.) Is 



reported by Mr. C. Baker to occur 

 at Atherstone, but I know of no other 

 captures

 only records I have are Coventry and 

 Sutton (G. W. Wynn) ; Whitchurch 

 (J. H. Bloom) 



fissipuncta, Haw. (upsilon, Bkh.) 



Also rare, and my records are very 

 unsatisfactory. Sutton Park (Blatch 

 Cat.); Rugby (Rugby lists) ; and it 

 also occurs in F. Enock's 1870 list, 

 but I should like confirmatory re- 

 cords 



Plastenis subtusa, F. Rare. Hampton-in-
