IN THE BRITISH ISLANDS. 155 



ADDENDA. 



Thyatyra batis., L. var. confluens, Reuter. In the ' Entomologisk 

 Tidskrift,' 1890, pp. 201-202, Enzio Reuter describes a variety with 

 the superior wings, having the base and centre dull reddish- white, the 

 costal margin with an almost semi-oval, dull, brownish-olive spot before 

 the middle ; from thence to the hind margin dull, sparingly and very 

 obsoletely subfasciate, dusted with fuscous ; the third apical (exterior) 

 portion distinctly dull brownish-olive, adorned with the typical spots, 

 but these posterior spots much more obsolete than in the type ; fringes 

 unicolorous fuscous. Posterior wings as in the type but the median 

 fascia paler. The abdomen whitish. He also gives a figure of the 

 specimen. His description is as follows : " Alis anticis superne basi 

 medioque sordide rubido-albidis, margine costali ante medium macula 

 fere semiovali sordide fusco-olivacea, ab ea usque in marginem posti- 

 cum pulvere fuscescenti parce et valde obsolete subfasciatim sordidatis ; 

 parte tertia apicali (exteriore) sensim sordide fusco-olivacea, maculis 

 typicis ornata, his posterioribus autem quam in typo multo obsoleti- 

 oribus ; ciliis fuscis unicoloribus ; alis posticis ut in typo, sed fascia 

 media pallida obsoletiore ; abdomine albicanti ( ? )." 



Some varieties occur in the trade lists of Dr. Staudinger and Herr 

 Heyne. As I cannot certainly trace their synonymy, nor as yet, find 

 descriptions, I do not know whether they are actually described 

 varieties or mere trade names. They are as follows : 



Asphalia flavicornis var. finnmarchia, Scboyen (Heyne's list). 

 Viminia albovenosa var. murina, Spaugsberg (Heyne's list). 

 Nonagria gemimpuncta var. pallida, Stdgr., (Heyne's list). 

 Miana furuncula var. paUidior, Stdgr., (Staudinger's list). 

 Crymodes exulis var. obscura, Stdgr., (Heyne & Staudinger's lists). 

 Caradrma alsines var. amurensis, Stdgr., (Heyne & Staudinger's lists). 

 Caradrma ambigua var. dilucida, Stdgr., (Staudinger's list).
