70 CATALOGUE OF MOTHS. 



81. H. lariciana, Z. 



Hedya lariciana. 



This species is not recognised by any of the authorities to 

 whom I refer. Meyrick names it as a variety of Ocellana, but 

 it is given as distinct in the "Entomologist" Catalogue. There 

 should be no doubt on the subject, for it has narrower fore- 

 wings than Ocellana, and is smaller in size and darker. Mr. 

 J. B. Hodgkinson met with it in the west of Northumberland, 

 and Mr. Sang in the west of Durham on Cotherstone Moor.

This is another species that Mr. Finlay has not seen, but Mr. 

 Maling has recorded it in the , Transactions for 1875, p. 281; 

 Mr. Sang took it in Dinsdale Wood, and in Neasham Lane, 

 near Darlington. Mr. Gardner has also taken it in Hezleden 

 Dene, where it is far from common. 



83. H. neglectana, Dup.

Certainly not a common species, yet one that ought to occur 

 in most places in both counties. It has been taken at Meldon 

 Park by Mr. Finlay, who found it scarce. Mr. Maling too 

 records the species in the list he published in the Transactions 

 for 1875, p. 281. I have no Durham records, but it is certain 

 to be found there, and should be looked for among willow.

Hedya aceriana. Staint. Man., vol. ii., p. 220.
