﻿1869.] 151 



There is much in this excellent monograph which would well 

 merit further notice, and 1 leave it in hopes that some one conversant 

 with the Swedish language will take it up, and that the restoration of 

 supposed Linnean names will be investigated by some one who has the 

 means of discovering the truth at his disposal. 



The following list of our native plume moths, with the food-plants 

 known to me, may be useful, at all events, to the young entomologist ; 

 it will be noticed that none feed on trees, the rose and the bramble are 

 the nearest approaches to them : —
