PHALiENA CHRISTIERNANA. 

 Lepidoptera. 



GENERIC CHARACTER. 







Pyralis. 



SPECIFIC CHARACTER. 



Firft wings yellow, with rofe-coloured marks. Under wings floflv, 

 brownilh grey. 



The natural hiftory of this Phalaena is (o little known, that we 

 freely confefs our inability to fhew its transformations ; and al- 

 though a deviation from our firft intention, we truft the fcarcity of 

 th« Fly will plead our excufe. We fhall occafionally introduce figures 

 of fome rare and non-defcript fubjects, which we hope will be 

 highly fatisfa£tory to many of our fubferibers. 



Our fpecimen was taken at Feverfham ; they are fometimes met 

 with about Darnwood in June or July.
