M. Brisout has also published his description of this 

 species, the MS, name of which was also made known to 

 us by Mr. Crotch (vide *^ Annual," 1867), 



It is worthy of remark that observers so careful as Messrs. 

 Dawson and Wollaston have entertained the idea that our 

 C. crux is only the male of C. urtlcce, Schon. ; and I must 

 admit that all my own specimens, some half-dozen, appear to 

 be of the male sex. I have, however, never taken the insect 

 on nettle ; but have always understood it was to be found on 

 Veronica. 



It has lately been taken as far north as Dumfries, by 

 Dr. Sharp.

querent, Eich., Berl. Ent. Zeit., 1864. 

 There seems little doubt that Curtis' insect is identical with 

 Eichhoff's species; but, although the former's description is 

 by far the oldest, I fear that Eichhoff must be considered as 

 the real describer of the insect, since he points out its struc- 

 tural characters, and differences between it and the closely 

 allied X, Uneatus, upon which Curtis is necessarily silent.
