CRCESIA, Hub. 



100. Croesia bergmanniana, Linn. 



Crcesia bergmanniaJia. Staint. Man., vol. ii., p. 228. 



„ „ Wilk. Brit. Tort., p. 153. 



Tortrix „ Meyr. Hdbk. Erit. Lep., p. 536. 



Very common everywhere among rose. Swarming on the 

 sandhills amongst Rosa spinosissima, equally abundant amongst 

 dog rose in the hedges, and plentiful in gardens amongst the 

 standard and climbing roses therein. It begins to fly about 

 five o'clock in the afternoon in the early part of June, and flits 

 about leisurely for an hour or so. It is on all the lists sent me. 



101. C. forskaleana, Linn. 



Crcesia forskaleana. Staint. Man., vol. ii., p. 228. 



,, „ Wilk. Brit. Tort., p. 154. 



Tortrix ,, Meyr. Hdbk. ]3rit. Lep., p. 536. 



Generally common, and probably occurring wherever the 

 food plant, maple, grows. Mr. Finlay found it in Meldon 

 Park ; Mr. Maling also recorded it for ISTorthumberland in the 

 Transactions for 1875, p. 281. I have no Durham records, 

 except that both Mr. Gardner and myself have met with it 

 about Hartlepool. 



102. C. holmiana, Linn. 



Crcesia holmiana. Staint. Man., vol. ii., p. 228. 



,, „ Wilk. Brit. Tort., p. 155. 



Acalla ,, Meyr. Hdbk. Brit. Lep., p. 526. 



A common species, and generally well distributed. In 

 Northumberland, however, I have but one record, that of the 

 Twizell list. In Durham, in the south of the county, it 

 appears common. Mr. Backhouse took it at Darlington. Mr. 

 Sang found it on the Teeside in Cockerton Lane and also at 

 Seaton Carew. It also occurs near Hartlepool on the railway 

 side and elsewhere.
