Yorkshire Entomology in 1914. 107 
Wood, Huddersfield, a new and very interesting record for the 
district. Mr. T. Ashton Lofthouse writes :—He first noticed 
Dasycera sulphurella and Incurvaria muscalella flying freely 
in the sunshine in his garden at Middlesborough about the 
middle of April. Cemiostoma laburnella occurred about the end 
of April and was noticed again in August. It seems to be very 
plentiful in this district on laburnum, the foliage of which is 
very much disfigured by the mines of the species. In early 
June Adela rufimitrella was noticed at Ingleby Greenhow and 
near Northallerton. On June 13th Mixodia_ schulziana, 
Tortrix viburnana, Phoxopteryx myrtillana, Adela fibulella, 
Micropteryx calthella, M. sepella and M. aureatella, Tinea 
weaverella and Ayrgyresthia atmoriella were noticed at Great 
Ayton, Dicrorampha herbosana occurred at Redcar, Middles- 
borough, Saltburn, and Sandsend during June and July. D. 
plumbagana, Sandsend, and D. plumbana at Saltburn and 
Sandsend, and a single specimen of Stigmonota orobana at Sands- 
end on June 20th. Ephippiphora brunnichiana flying freely 
in sunshine about coltsfoot in Kilton Woods on July 4th, on 
which date Cemiostoma wailesella was taken about Genista 
tinctoria at Saltburn, this species appears to be an addition to 
the’ Yorkshire lst. Amphysa gerningana and Cemiostoma 
spartifoliella, Lealholm on July 11th. Cerostoma sequella 
two specimens at Kildale on July 20th, and a single specimen 
at Sleights on August 3rd. Xanthosetia zoegana at Saltburn 
on August 14th ; Peronea comparana at Ingleby ; P. sponsana 
and Argyresthia semitestacella about beech at Eston in Septem- 
ber and Ephippiphora simuilana about birch in the same locality. 
About the middle of October Exapate congelatella occurred 
freely in a restricted locality on the Moors near Battersby, 
flying in the sunshine about 2 p.m. Mr. Lofthouse also took 
the following insects last year, 1913, that have not been previ- 
ously recorded for Yorkshire :Micropteryx sang, near 
Kildale in May; Cedestis gysselinella, Great Ayton end of 
July ; and the following of which there are few Yorkshire 
records :— Nemotois capriacellus, Great Ayton (only one 
previous Yorkshire record), Incurvaria ehlamannella, Great 
Ayton, Brachmia mouffetella, and Bucculatrix cristalella, 
Kaldale.

HYMENOPTERA, DIPTERA AND HEMIPTERA.—Besides the 
information in the Annual Report in The Naturalist last 
month Mr. H. Walch writes to say that he has taken a queen 
Vespa germanica at Halifax, after several years’ search. 
An ichneumon which Mr. G. T. Porritt took in his garden 
at Elm Lea, Dalton, Huddersfield, has been named by Mr. 
Claude Morley as Tryphon trochanteratus, this, as far as is 
1915 Mar. 1.
