CATALOGUE OF MOTHS. 167 



those occurring in the west of that county. In Durham the 

 "Manual" marks it as ocourring regularly at Darlington. Mr. 

 Sang took it there in July, 1872. He had previously taken it 

 at Seaton Carew. Mr. Backhouse took it in the north-west of 

 Durham at Shotley Bridge. Mr. Gai'dner has found it on the 

 railway embankment at Hartlepool. Although the larva feeds 

 in the seed-heads of Centaurea nigra, which abounds almost 

 everywhere, the species is, like all its near allies, strangely 

 local. 



168. P. carlinella, Stain. 



Parasia carlineUa. Staint. Man., vol. ii., p. 348. 

 ,, ,, Meyr. Hdbk. Brit. Lep., p. 571. 



The only notice of the occurrence of this insect here is the 

 "Manual" "Da," implying that it has been found there. It 

 is never entered in Sang's diary, and since he was glad to re- 

 ceive Dorset imagines and larvae from Mr. Bankes as recently 

 as 1885, it is obvious that he knew no locality for it in this 

 district. 



CLEODORA, Curt. 



169. Cleodora cytisella, Curt. 



Cleodora cytisella. Staint. Man., vol. ii., p. 349. 

 Paltodora ,, Meyr. Hdbk. Brit. Lep., p. 572. 



Like the last, the only knowledge I have of the occurrence 

 of this insect here is the " jSTe " of the "Manual" signifying 

 that it has occurred in the Newcastle-on-Tyne district. 



CHELARIA, Haw. 



170. Chelarla huebnerella, Don. 



Chelaria hiibnerella. Staint. Man,, vol. ii., p. 349. 

 ,, huebnerella. Meyr. Hdbk. Brit. Lep., p. 610. 



Eather a common species, and marked in the "Manual" as 

 occurring at Newcastle-on-Tyne, and abundantly at Darlington. 

 Mr. Maling also recorded it in the Transactions for 1875, p, 282.
