—Morocco: Tangier, III. 1885 {Leech), 21. IV. 1902 {Wlsm.)\ 

 Canaries— Texerife : Miramar, Santa Cruz, 1. I. 1907. 



A single specimen of this rare species occurred near Miramar, 

 two miles from Santa Cruz, on January 1st. 



This species, as also elongana FR. (1724), and impurcma Mn. 

 (1725), must be removed from Phalonia to Pharmacis.

Hah. Tenerife ^'^ : La Laguna, Datura stramonium, excl. 

 V-VI {Cabrera) \ 



This is one of the very few species, recorded from Tenerife, 

 which I was unable to find, although I searched on Datura stra- 

 monium, at La Laguna, in May and June — the time and place of 

 its recorded occurrence. 



60. (227) TORTRIX L. 



I fear I may be in part responsible for the too-extended use of 

 the geneonym. Fa7idemis Hb., having placed in that genus certain 

 South African species possessing a very faint indication of a notch 

 at the base of the antennae : neither in these, nor in any of the 

 Tenerife species with which I am acquainted, is there any suificient 

 indication of this character to justify their separation from Tortrix 

 L. I might have been disposed to place them in Dij^terina Meyr., 

 separated from Tortrix L. by Meyrick on account of the presence 

 of a distinct secondary cell in the forewings, by the stalking of 

 veins 6 and 7 in the hind wings, and by the long ciliation of the 

 S antennae ; but an examination of Dvpterina tasmaniana Wkr. 

 shows that veins 6 and 7 of the hindwings are not truly stalked, 

 although tending to coincidence towards the base, the secondary 

 cell is less strongly indicated than in Clejysis Gn. {rusticana Tr.), 

 with which it agrees in the long ciliation of the antennae. 

 Meyrick has himself placed rusticana in the genus Tortrix, 

 evidently regarding the ciliation of the antennae as merely a 

 question of degree ; our Tenerife species, possessing no well- 

 indicated secondary cell, must therefore be included in the older 

 and more generally recognised genus Tortrix L.
