CUREBNT NOTES. 127 



Boctra furfurana. — Hunstanton. Very local and very small in 

 size in the locality in which we found it. 



Epkippiphora inopiayia. — Weybourne, among Inula and Artemisia. 

 Both have been mentioned as its food-plant, but we are uncertain on 

 which it feeds. 



Xanthosetia zcegana. — Chatteris. Besides the type there was a 

 noticeable proportion of the form fernujana, as well as forms inter- 

 mediate between the two. 



Couchylis alternana. — Waxham. Taken on heads of Centaurea. 



Anesijchia funerella. — Common in the fen-dykes around Chatteris, 

 both larva and imago, but for some reason we have not succeeded in 

 breeding it. 



Depressaria Jiavella. — For the last two years we have bred this 

 species, together with Sciaphilae, from the spun-up heads of liamm- 

 culus, as well as from rolled leaves of Centaurea. Two kinds of larvae 

 were noticed, a pink one and a dark green ; neither of these, however, 

 on pupation, attained the size of the Jiavella larva when feeding on its 

 usual food-plant, Centaurea. 



Depressaria hadiella. — A curious form of this species was also bred 

 from the buttercup-heads above referred to, the larva having been 

 probably introduced by mistake.
