A HISTORY OF WARWICKSHIRE 



ACIDALIIN.S (continued) 



Acidalia emarginata, L. Doubtfully recorded 

 from Rugby ; in Rugby list 1867 G. 

 B. Longstaff records it, and in a com- 

 munication to me Mr. N. V. Sidg- 

 wick tells me that Mr. A. Sidgwick 

 thinks he saw it years ago, but is not 

 certain

Timandra amata, L. (amataria, L.) Not 



common, but generally distributed 

 LARENTIIN^E 



Ortholitha plumbaria, F. (palumbaria 

 [S.V.] Tr.) Very common in 

 Sutton Park. Also recorded from 

 Rugby = Overslade, Brownsover, etc. 

 (Rugby lists) ; Atherstone (C. 

 Baker) ; and probably common in 

 all suitable localities 



- cervinata, Schiff. Not common. Sutton

 Knowle (Blatch Coll.); Rugby =

limitata, Sc. (mensuraria, Schiff.) 



Common throughout the county 



LARENTIINJE (continued) 



Odezia atrata, L. (chaerophyllata, L.) 

 Very local, sometimes occurring in 

 one field only, but it is given in all 

 my lists, and usually is common in 

 the spots where it is found 



Anaitis plagiata, L. Not uncommon, and 

 seems to occur throughout the county 

 [ paludata, Thnb., var. imbutata, Hb. 

 Both W. G. Blatch in Brit. Assoc. 

 Hand, and Enock in his 1869 list 

 mention this as occurring near Bir- 

 mingham. I however do not know 

 of its occurrence nearer than Chart ley 

 Moss, Staffordshire, and do not think 

 it is at all likely to be found in 

 Warwickshire] 



Chesias spartiata, Fuesl. Very local, but 

 well distributed. Sutton (G. W. 

 Wynn); Knowle (R. C. Bradley, 

 W. Kiss, etc.) ; Rugby = Ovenlade, 

 etc. (Rugby lists) ; Atherstone (C. 

 Baker) 



Lobophora carpinata, Bkh. (lobulata, Hb.). 

 Rare. It occurs at Knowle, where I 

 have taken it ; and F. Enock gives 

 it in his list 1870, probably from 

 captures at the same place. At 

 Hopwas Wood just over the border 

 it is very common 



halterata, Hufn. (hexapterata, Schiff.) 



Rare. Mr. N. V. Sidgwick writes 

 to me that he took it once at Bran- 

 don Woods, and Rev. J. H. Bloom 

 records it from the Worcestershire 

 side of Whitchurch parish 

 - viretata, Hb. Sutton Park is a well- 

 known headquartersof this usually un- 

 common insect, and in some years it 

 has been taken there in considerable 

 numbers. Of late years however I 

 fear it has been rendered much rarer 

 by over collecting ; at any rate I 

 have not heard of many being taken 

 recently, though that may be because 

 it has not been looked for so much as 

 it used to be 



Chcimatobia brumata, L. Very common 

 here as elsewhere 



Triphosa dubitata, L. Common every- 

 where 



Eucosmia certata, Hb. Rare. Ather- 

 stone (C. Baker) ; Rugby = Ovenlade,
