Phalsena Geometm Marginata* is rather common. It lives on the 

 nut, and is found in the winged ftate in May. 



* As the fpecific name Marginata occurs in the defcription of a Moth in Plate CL. it may 

 be proper to obferve, that the Infeft there figured, is NoBua Marginata of Fabricius. — The 

 CeB'tonal divifions of the Phalsense muft be particularly attended to, when the fame fpecific name 

 occurs more than once.
