Apamea ophiogramma. Common on the canal at Drumcondra 
and at Johnstown, county Kilkenny ; but it is always very local. 
A. fibrosa. I saw this species rather plentiful on the ragweed 
flowers at Ballycotton, county Cork.

C. alsines. Londonderry. 
Agrotis saucia. Galway. 
Teniocampa opima. Limerick. 
Orthosia suspecta. Londonderry. 
Cirrhoedia xerampelina. Dundalk, Enniskillen. This species 
seems to come freely to light. 
Dianthaecia conspersa. Enniskillen, 
D. barrettii. This species was discovered in 1861 by Mr. Barrett 
at Howth. Some numbers have been taken the last two years. 
This insect is unknown elsewhere; it is probable that it will turn 
out to be a melanic form of Luperina luteago, a rather rare 
German insect.
