930 LORD WALSIXGHAM ON THE [Nov. 26, 



I feel very little doubt that the Foecilia [Stenolechia) sp., which 

 Rebel described from a worn $ , taken by von Hedemann, in a 

 barranco near Santa Cruz among Tamarix, 5. V. 1895, was the 

 species now described nsfruticosella, the larvae of which, althoiigh 

 difficult to rear, are very common on Ruhia in all the barrancos 

 west of the town.

 patch above. Foretvings pale fawn-brown, with whitish cine- 

 reous lines and streaks, placed longitudinally and obliquely, but 

 not transversely; one along the costa from base to apex, one 

 along the cell from the base, branching to the costa beyond the 

 middle, and again before the apex ; another along the upper 

 edge of the fold as far as the middle of the wing, nearly touching 

 the outer end of an oblique dorsal patch arising before the middle, 

 a similar patch arising before the tornus and angulated outward 

 toward the apex ; cilia whitish cinereous, dusted with fawn-brown 

 scales on their basal half. Exj). al. 7*5-9 mm. Hinclwings pale

25. (2797*1) Aristotelia axcillula, sp. n. 



Antennae pale fawn, broadly barred with dark fuscous above, 

 almost obliterating the paler colour, except a noticeable spot at 

 the outer end of the basal joint. Palpi pale cinereous ; the 

 median joint coarsely clothed beneath, sjjeckled externally with 

 fuscous ; terminal joint much sprinkled with fuscous externally. 

 Head rosy fawn, shaded with fuscous. Thorax rosy fawn, a 

 strong dark fuscous shade anteriorly between the tegulae. Fore- 

 wings rosy faw^i, thickly sprinkled with fuscous, and with some 

 dark fuscous, almost black, spot.s — one on the costa near the base, 

 another, larger, on the dorsum below it, and a smaller one between 

 them — these more or less confluent ; opposite the middle spot is 

 a larger one at about one-sixth, its lower edge resting on the 

 fold ; again, a little before the middle, is a similar spot on the 

 disc, more or less confluent with a smaller one slightly preceding- 

 it on the fold, and these again are followed by a smaller and less 

 conspicuous spot at the end of the cell ; cilia rosy fawn, sprinkled
