CATALOGUE OF MOTHS. 233 



Mr. Robson, is entered here for the following reason. In his 

 Nat. Hist. Brit. Lep., i., 333, Mr. Tutt records it as found by 

 Mr. Sang both at Castle Eden and Darlington, and it is there 

 stated, on Mr. Gardner's authority, that Sang collected larvae 

 of eurema on Lotus on July 11th, 1858, at Castle Eden, and 

 on June 28th, 1862, June 14th, 1872, and September 7th, 1873, 

 at Darlington. The evidence that Sang's entries in his diary 

 relating to " cryptella " really refer to etirema is not before me, 

 but it was evidently convincing, and, on the strength of Mr. 

 Tutt's decision, I have removed them from the preceding notice 

 where they had been inserted by Mr. Robson, who mentioned 

 that Sang's Darlington localities for '' crypiella,^^ i.e., for 

 eurema, were the railway banks around the town. No other 

 records of the occurrence of eurema in these counties are known 

 to me. — E. E.. Bankes.

This species was first recorded as British in the Entomologist's 

 Weekly Intelligencer, vol. ix., p. 13 (1860), and the earliest 

 known British capture was published on p. 187 of the same 

 volume. It is a double-brooded species, and Mr. Sang found a 

 few larv^ on July 13th, 1873, near Darlington. In September 

 of the same year, and of 1874, he found them again more freely. 

 I have no other record of its occurrence here. 



366. N. septembrella, Stain. 



Nepticula septembrella. Staint. Man., vol. ii., p. 432.

Mr. Hodgkinson found this in West Northumberland, which 

 is an extension of the range given in Meyrick's Handbook, 

 which limits it to Durham. It is given in the "Manual" as 

 being abundant at Darlington, but there is no Darlington record 

 in Sang's diary. He found it, however, in Castle Eden Dene.
