322 HAUSTELLATA. — LEPIDOPTEIIA. 



females slender, with a pair of spurs at the apex. Larva slightly pilose, not 

 tuberculated, attenuated anteriorly : pupa enclosed in a web amongst leaves. 



The tenuity of the wings of this genus — which is a portion of the 

 genus Epione of Duponchel — with their sinuous outline and com- 

 parative brevity, as well as the surface having distinct strigse with 

 a conspicuous central dot or point, serves to distinguish it from the 

 preceding, with which I have associated it in my Catalogue : the 

 larva is very different to that of the Macarise.

Wings lutescent, with a few scattered fuscous atoms and a central black dot ; 

 the anterior with an incurved striga a little before the middle, and a repanded 

 common one behind the middle, between which is frequently a common 

 fuscescent fascia, especially in the females ; on the hinder margin is a third 

 striga, which is also repanded. Female with the wings more repanded on 

 the hinder margin, which is usually suffused, and the wings of a more rufescent 

 cast. 



Caterpillar ochreous-yellow, with a brown dorsal line : it feeds on the bind- 

 weed (Convolvulus arvensis) : — the imago appears towards the end of July. 



Rather abundant in hedges and by wood sides within the metro- 

 politan district ; the female is, however, rare. " Epping." — Mr. 

 Doiibleday.
