lxxxii Abstract of Zeller's 



Sp. 48. G'URRUCIPENNELLA, F-V-R. 



Kesembles Tiliella in the form of the larva-case, and palliatella in the markings of 

 the perfect insect. The males are sometimes extremely difficult to separate from 

 palliatella. 



Occurs in many parts of Germany, in July : the larva feeds on Carpinus betulus 

 and oaks. 



Sp. 49. Aubicella, Fabr. 



Much purer white than Virgatella ; differs, also, from the loam-yellowish nervures 

 and the white-gray posterior wings. From the (superficially considered) similar 

 Onosmella it is easily separated by the pale posterior wings and the tuft at the base 

 of the antennae. 



Scarce : Paris, Vienna, and Frankfort-on-the-Maine, in June. The larva feeds 

 on Stachys recta. 



Sp. 50. Virgatella, Z. (Auricella, Z. Isis, 1839). 



Distinguished from the preceding by the much darker, sharper lines on the ante- 

 rior wings, the dark gray posterior wings, and the shorter tuft of the antenna. 



Sp. 51. Chalcogeammella, Z. 



The smallest known Coleophora; strongly characterized by the two thick, shining, 

 bronze-coloured long-lines on the yellow anterior wings. 



Zeller took four male specimens near Glogau, on dry weedy hills, towards evening, 

 in the sunshine, in June and July ; and Schlager took a female near Jena, on a fence, 

 in July. 



Sp. 52. Albifuscella, Z. 



This and leucapennella are distinguished by the black-brown anterior wings 

 having a broad snow-white costal line : its hairy antennae separate it readily from the 

 bare-horned leucapennella. 



Occurs in many parts of Germany and in Livonia, in May and July. The larva- 

 case was found by Von Heyden, fastened to a capsule of Lychnis viscaria, in July. 



Sp. 53. Leucapennella, Hubner. 



Only differs from albifuscella in the antennae, which are quite destitute of hairs. 

 Occurs in many parts of Germany, in May and July. 



Sp. 54. Cbepidinella, Z. 



Smaller than niveicostella : differs from albifuscella by the simple antenna?, and 

 from leucapennella by the paler ground-colour and the finer white costal line of the 

 anterior wings. 



Taken by Zeller, near Syracuse, in May.
