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

 There Mr. Sang took it in Neasham Lane, in Whessoe Lane, etc. 

 He also met with it at Seaton Carew, in Castle Eclen Dene, and 

 at Black Halls. Mr. Gardner has also taken it commonly at 

 Greatham, and also close to his own house at Hart. 



260. C. artemisiella, Scott. 



Coleophora artemisiella. Meyr. Hdbk. Brit. Lep., p. 658. 



This species, whict was not discovered until after the pub- 

 lication of the "Manual," is very common amongst Artemisia 

 maritima on Greatham marshes. Mr. Gardner has taken the 

 insect, and bred it freely from larvse collected there. Mr. Sang's 

 records in his diary are all for Midcllesbro\ but it is certain that 

 he collected larvse at Greatham when with Mr. Gardner, though 

 he has made no record of doing so. 



261. C. murinipennella, Dup. 



Coleophora murinipennella. Staint. Man., vol. ii., p. 392. 

 ,, „ Meyr. Hdbk. Brit. Lep., p. 659. 



Generally a common species, but its most northern recorded 

 station is given by Meyrick as Yorkshire. Mr. Hodgkinson, 

 however, marks it as taken by him in "West Northumberland. 

 In Durham Mr. Sang found it on Coniscliife Moor, near Dar- 

 lington, in 1880 and 1881, and Mr. Gardner has taken it at 

 Greatham. The Durham captures are not far from the York- 

 shire boundary, but Mr. Hodgkinson's are perhaps a hundred 

 miles beyond it. 



262. C. glaucicolella, Wood. 



Coleophora glaucicolella. Meyr. Hdbk. Brit. Lep., p. 659. 



Meyrick says of this species, " S. England to Hereford and 

 Cambridge, common ; not yet recognised elsewhere." Mr. 

 Gardner has taken it on Greatham salt marsh, the moths and 

 cases having been identified by Dr. Wood, so that Meyrick's 

 statement is no longer correct. The larva feeds on seeds of 

 Jimcus glaucus.
