lxxx Abstract of Zeller's 



Sp. 35. Gallipennella, Hiibner. 



Has great resemblance with Coronillae, but the antennae are on the back unico- 

 lorous white (only spotted with brown beneath), and destitute of hairs above the basal 

 joint ; and besides the costal streak of the anterior wings is broader, and the discoidal 

 streak entirely wanting. All the other somewhat similar species are much smaller, 

 with brown annulated antennae. 



Zeller took a specimen on Astragalus glycyphyllus, near Glogau: it has also oc- 

 curred in other parts of Germany. 



Sp. 36. Coronill^;, Z. (Gallipennella, 7V.) 



This is the largest and most beautiful of those species of which the brown annu- 

 lated antennae have a slightly hairy clothing above the basal tuft. In the lively yel- 

 low colour of the anterior wings, serenella and Onobrychiella come near to it : tbe 

 former comes nearest to it in size, and has quite similar white lines on the anterior 

 wings. Its specific distinctions are, that in Coronillae the basal tuft of the antenna; 

 is longer, and the white costal streak much narrower ; this is no broader than the end 

 of the antenna, whereas in serenella it is twice as broad. The very much smaller 

 Onobrychiella has this line somewhat stouter than Coronillae, no trace of a discoidal 

 streak, and the tuft of the antennae shorter. Bilineatella is similar in colour, but 

 wants the discoidal streak, and has the costal streak broad, expanding posteriorly, and 

 continued almost to the apex of the wing. 



The larva feeds on Coronilla varia, and the perfect insect frequents this plant in 

 June and July, in many parts of Germany. 



Sp. 37. Seeenella, Tischer. 



Smaller than Coronillae, which it extremely resembles, but is distinguished as 

 above mentioned. 



Occurs in many parts of Gennany, in June. Mann found the larvae-cases very 

 abundant on a laburnum tree at Vienna. Von Heyden takes the species among As- 

 tragalus. 



Sp. 38. Onobrychiella, F-v-R. 



Allied to Coronillae ; the tuft of the antennae is much shorter, and the lash of the 

 antennae considerably thickened with yellowish hairs ; the costal streak on the much 

 shorter anterior wings reaches rather further towards the hinder margin. From se- 

 renella it is likewise distinguished by its smaller size, narrower costal line, and more 

 hairy antennae. The much smaller size, the presence of a discoidal streak (though 

 indeed extremely faint), and the thin costal line, separate it from bilineatella. 



Near Vienna, in June and September, among Onobrychis ; formerly bred abun- 

 dantly by Mann. 



Sp. 39. Bilineatella, Z. 



Its posteriorly much-expanded, pure white costal streak, and the entire absence 

 of a discoidal streak, separate it from the preceding species. 



Occurs sparingly in several localities in Germany, in June and July.
