 glandifera the finest and most frequent.

Miana bicoloria (furuncula) : only one poor specimen taken. 



Mamestra brassicce : larvre. 



Phlogophora meticulosa. 



Plusia gamma. 



Hypena proboscidalis. 



I used no sugar, and only worked in the day, or my list of Noctua would pro- 

 bably have been longer. 



Acidalia subsericeata, aversata, incanata (marginepunclata), very common, 

 dilutata, lividata. 



Abraxas grossulariata. 



Rttmia cratwgata (2nd brood). 



Aspilates ochrearia (citraria) : very abundant, but the specimens all small ; 

 3 , exp., 26 mm. 



Ortholitha peribolata : of this species I took five specimens, and saw two or 

 three more, on the tract of broom and furze by Corbieres. 



Mesotype virgata (lineolata) : St. Ouen. 



Cidaria galiata : the commonest Geometer in the island. C.fluctuata, bilineata.

 any other vegetation that it could possibly feed on there was a patch of Rosa 

 spinosissima, and on these bushes P. variegana was common.* 



Dictyopteryx ciliana : common, but very small. 



Carpocapsa pomonella : larva in apples. C. ulicetana • most abundant. 



Eupoecilia rupicola : amongst Eupatorium cannabinum. This insect is com- 

 mon amongst the same plant at Teignmouth, and has been found by me at Sierre in 

 the Rhono Valley, also amongst Eupatorium. 



Cases of Talceporia, probably inconspicuella, were frequont amongst lichens. 

 Tinea biselliella: house, abundant. T. nigripunctella i one specimen .on a wall 

 in St. Ilelicrs. 



* From this plant boing mentioned it had occurred to me that the motha must have been 

 P. ■permutana, but on examining two of the specimens which Dr. Jordan captured on this 

 occasion, 1 found that they were veritably V. variegana, only remarkably small. — H. T. S.
