-MOROCCO: Tangier, III. 1885 (Leech\ 21. IV. 1902 (Whin.) . 

 Canaries TENERIFE : Miramar. Santa Cruz, 1. 1. 1907. 



A single specimen of this rare species occurred near M inunar. 

 t\v<> miles from Santa Cruz, on January 1st. 



This species, as also <>l(ni<j(tiia FR. (1724), and impurana Mn. 

 (17:25), must be removed from Phalonia to Pkarmacis.

This is one of the very few species, recorded from Tenerife, 

 which I was unable to find, although I searched on Datura stra- 

 ii>onui>i>, at La Laguiia, in May and June the time and place of 

 its recorded occurrence. 



60. (227) TORTRIX L. 



I fear I may be in part responsible for the too-extended use of 

 the geneonym Pandemis Hb., having placed in that genus certain 

 South African species possessing a very faint indication of a notch 

 at the base of the antennae : neither in these, nor in any of the 

 Tenerife species with which I am acquainted, is there any sufficient 

 indication of this character to justify their separation from Tortrix 

 L. I might have been disposed to place themiii Dipterinal&syY., 

 separated from Tortrix L. by Meyrick 011 account of the presence 

 of a distinct secondary cell in the forewings, by the stalking of 

 veins 6 and 7 in the hind wings, and by the long ciliation of the 

 cJ antennae ; but an examination of Dipterina tasmaniana Wkr. 

 shows that veins 6 and 7 of the hindwings are not truly stalked, 

 although tending to coincidence towards the base, the secondary 

 cell is less strongly indicated than in Clepsis Gn. (rusticana Tr.), 

 with which it agrees in the long ciliation of the antennae. 

 Meyrick has himself placed rusticana in the genus Tortrix, 

 evidently regarding the ciliation of the antennae as merely a 

 question of degree; our Tenerife species, possessing no well- 

 indicated secondary cell, must therefore be included in the older 

 and more generally recognised ^enus Tortrix L.
