Orthotcenia striana. — Was fairly common from 1886 to 1899, but 

 has been less so recently. 



Sciaphila subjectana. — Once, July 21st, 1SS6 ; was formerly an 

 abundant species in the neighbourhood. 



Grapholitha iniituta/ia. — Not uncommon since 1S94 ; probably 

 breeds in the poplar tree. 



G. ncevana. — Once only, July 14th, 1S89. 



Batodes aiigustiorana. — Fitful in appearance ; was common in 

 1899. 



Pcedisca bilunana. — Odd specimens have occurred. 



Semasia WKoeriana. — Sometimes fairly common ; probably breeds 

 here. 



Carpocapsa pomonella — Once, on July 18th, 1886. 



Eiipcecilia ditbitaiia. — One was taken at light in house, August 19th, 

 1898. 



Jlfofwpis [Tinea) ferrnginella^ 



Odd specimens have occurred in 

 house from time to time, in 

 some cases no doubt attracted 

 by the gas-light. 



Trichophaga [Tinea) tapeizella, 



Tinea fuscipunctella 



T. pa/lescentella, 



T. cloacella, 



Tncurvaria capitei/a, 



Hvponomeuia padelliis. — At times only too common; in 18S6 the 

 whitethorn was smothered with its larval webs, and for several years 

 after it was more or less troublesome. It was then hardly seen for a 

 time, but in 1901 the moths were noted in some numbers, although no 

 webs had been observed on the trees in spring. 



H. cagnagellus. — In 1907 the Euonymus bushes were smothered 

 with the larval webs, in common with those all round the neighbour- 

 hood, although neither in the garden nor, indeed, in the surrounding 

 district had the species been previously noted (" Proc." 1907, p. 83). 



Prays curtisellus. — Once, at rest on garden wall. 



Pliitella cruciferariini. — Once, on wing in house. 



P. porrectella. — Abundant in May, 1884, "O doubt having bred in 

 some plants of garden rocket {Hesperis), and continued more or less 

 commonly until cultivation of the Hesperis was given up. 



Harpipteryx xylostella. — Once, July 19th, 1901. 



Phibalocera qiiercana. — Odd examples have been taken from time 

 to time, and have been reared from larvae taken on oak tree. 



Dep7-essaria costosa.- — Whenever plants of "genista" [Cytisus 

 canariensis) are put out of doors after their spring blossoming they 

 soon become infested with the larvs, and it has been found on 

 broom whenever that shrub has been grown. 



Recurvaria nanella. — Occasionally common on the trunk of the 

 poplar ; evidently strays from my neighbour's pear-trees, and seeks 

 shelter on the rough bark of the poplar. 



Tachyptilia popiilella. — Breeds regularly in the poplar tree. 



Harpella geoffrella. — Odd specimens occur from time to time.
